Yeah, don't bother. I mean, I've always liked them, but any band that can be described with adjectives such as shimmering and ethereal, you're bound to hate.

I 2nd Billzebub's take that you need to hear some X

Their first 4 are classic. After that things get a bit dicey.

I have Los Angeles, and could never get through it. Isn't that the one that has the Manzarek on it?

Oh, and shimmering and ethereal aren't the real problems, its that they are English, and from the 80s ;)
