The energy and danger just wasn't there and they (read Josh Homme) came across as self-indulgent and giving off a "we're awesome, listen to us" vibe. I think Songs For The Deaf was their last good album and kicking out Nick Oliveri was a huge mistake.
I like Lullabies To Paralyze a lot but recognize that both Rated R and Songs For The Deaf as the two classic albums from the band. Era Vulgaris what a disappointing album that was.
