In my opinion, a lot of their stuff is designed to have processed appeal across the board to just about everyone, "Yes" for instance has very deep vocals and a lot of guitar distortion which makes fans of hard rock like them, but at the same time there's the nauseating sensitivities and pathetic whining of songs like "X & Y" and "Paradise".
You shouldn't feel bad about it, I'm sure that there are good ideas woven in with some of their songs. I myself think "Shiver" is quite a good song, and "Violet Hill" is OK apart from the awful guitar solo.
And I think that counts as a "musical secret" from me, too!
