I think that even though there is an obvious commercial aspect to their newer material, at least it takes some unique aspects into the world of pop, which has become kinda stale... so they do a couple of commercial sounding records, influence a bunch of people to do something similar, settle down, move on and concentrate on being more unique once the wave of success has broken... hever harmed some really great bands... The Church had their commercial Heyday in the late eighties and look at 'em now... interesting and creative as ever...

I guess I am taking thw angle view of how their career might pan out... everything is kinda cyclic, and alot of the time a new album is largely a reaction to the last one...
