whenever i go through something like this, i don't find any enjoyment whatsoever out of any of the music. the singing, though, is generally quite nice, but the written music itself is pretty bland.

No, not as much initially. Initially they were really only imitating people like Chuck Berry. Later in their career is when they starting mining a variety of pre-rock music.
