Except that their new album might be some of the best stuff they have ever put out. Musically, lyrically, as far as mattering in the long scope of musical history.

I'll not get any support here, The Crows, like DMB and Springsteen seem to be quintessentially America. I suppose that's fine since Crowded House, Oasis, and Robbie Williams never caught on here. Still, Counting Crows music should not be described as "a couple catchy tunes."
