What pisses me off is that none of them play with any attitude or originality, none of the chords or phrasing contain anything unique. The pervert husband and his wife are not even good singers, fine I guess, maybe some of their vocal melodies are catchy but ####ed if I know how they're successful.

I've done my best to ignore them over the years but now I know how brutally terrible they are.
Their first three records were really solid IMO. Unfortunately they got progressively worse with each album after that and I completely lost interest. Then came the sexual allegation stuff, which was the death knell.
