They've just grown terribly stale for me over the last 5-7 years. I haven't seen anything innovative out of them since I thought their original stuff sounded fairly different. Unfortunately, they haven't changed much in my eyes (or ears, I guess). I think the last album I bought was Before these crowded streets, and I didn't care much for most of that one.
The Mrs. still buys the albums, and I hear them, but they're not anything I write about. I certainly won't go see them again, especially at the venues they've been playing. I'm still on their email list and it seems that everytime a band member wipes his ass I get an email about it.
