There lotsa songs all you rockers will have never heard ofLearn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.

Some find them beyond bland (cookie-cutter), others find them refreshingly real with awesome songs in general. It depends what you look for in music.
Regardless, their debut was the best selling rock album of the 90s (at least -- that's what I heard, worldwide it sold something like 17M copies?), and it was still high on the billboard charts when 2000 rolled around. But it never peaked higher than #3."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
Ben Kenobi: "That means I'm doing something right. "
