it's tough to maintain a band all those yrs while going through so many drug problems in their personal life.

and Now the band completely changed their sound, and in my opinion they got even better, they seem so centered now.. like they matured as ppl an as a band..

it's tough for bands to stay together so many yrs and even more so to get better & better like they have..

i really respect those guys.
