I think that might be down to A.) the amount of time that has passed, and B.) the diffusion of music because of the internet so that people just kind of happen upon them and are like yay or nay rather being confronted with them like they might have been in the 90s.
Not necessarily any kind of respect thing. I really do think they just have a sound that will be appealing to a very certain kind of person right off the bat, and everyone else will always hate them, with a few outliers like me who just end up getting used to it. Something to do with a solid pop sensibility but an idiosyncratic sound pallet.
