The negative part there is "forced". Again, quirkiness has no inherent negativity, but if feels forced or manufactured-sounding then that's where it turns sour. The same goes for most neutral descriptors, I would imagine.
The reason I called Erase Errata was partly due to the angular guitars, but it was that combined with the horns and the genuinely awful music video that made it appear, at least to me, that much of their presentation was built on a forced sense of quirkiness.
