I couldn't even find a review of their concerts in the L.A. Times, which 
really surprised
me.  In the past they've gotten some pretty good write-ups.  The only time 
KROQ,
our "alternative rock" station here in L.A. plays them anymore is during the 
flashback
luncheon.  I'm really curious to see what happens with their new album.  You 
know 
a lot of it rides on the promotion (or lack of same) by the record company.
