I keep seeing people talk about them in hushed revered tones talking about all these influences they have.
In fact a lot of these influences sound like they should appeal to me yet from what I have heard they just sound like one of many bands of this ilk.
They are not particularly original TBH but they take all the best bits of prog, ambient and Rock and manage to make a satisfying whole. I can definitely see many people being quite frankly bored by them and I'm not that surprised that they have divided opinion. For me they make exactly the music that I really like but i'm not blinkered enough to realise that they are not groundbreaking.
