I actually liked the album OK when I heard it, but when I went to see them, they were really irritating to me for some reason. Perhaps it was the bassist's constant and ridiculous gesticulations, perhaps it was the fact that when they ran out of lyrics they kept singing "aaaaahhh aahhh ahh" and wouldn't STOP SINGING for just a little bit, perhaps it was the annoying "c'mon everybody, let's all get together for a big human be-in" vibe...
I don't know, really. They are very good musicians and I know other people who thought they were so good that they went and saw them in other towns on the same tour.
Purely a taste issue. I cannot fault them as musicians or singers.
