I find with most band bios that the first half is usually great (and quite inspirational) as they recount their early struggles but then, in the final half, as success is achieved, they all just become the same story. Once bands reach a certain level of fame they all begin to merge. Another spell in rehab, ego conflicts, failed marriages, celebrity friends, etc, etc.
Thinking about it, SY are one of the few bands I can think of whose rise to glory hasn't followed this seemingly inevitable path.
