I guess with their latest album, no. If you look at the average "new" fan that has made them less underground, though, then I think they still are in a way: last.fm charts recently played is an absolute joke. It makes me believe their best work is still "underground"/under the radar. I mean, 'You' is the top fukin' track- I would rate that as the worst song on an average-to-above-average album, well outside my top 50 simply for Atmosphere drops alone. The top 15 is all 'When Life Gives You Lemons...' except for 2 tracks. IMO, they are simultaneously mainstream ('WLGYL...YPTSG') and underground (old stuff)- if that's possible.

And then, just when you think you've got the whole blah'd damn thing figured out
And you're surrounded by the ones you blah
Death shows up... anddd blah, blah, blah.
