Actually they compressed the underground American scene from its conception; and even extrapolated its eventual growth; into 5 good albums. They made music that shook the foundations of the youth and made music something to be respected and appreciated again, after the 80s and its greed mostly destoyed it. Their music is good. It's very, very good. Their songwriting and band dynamics are very highly accomplished. Very finely tuned. Their sound is a learned and very encompassing thing, that envelopes most of good rock and blasts it out into short, 3-4 minute bursts of sonic nirvana.
