Usually high commercial success signifies that the album has lost a certain uniqueness or individuality, preferring a catchier, more musically that the band had. I actually only mentioned that albums commercial success, because he had the overwhelming tendency to pick the albums that were the most famous, instead of the album that was more musically more complex and innovative.

I never referred to it as VD either, I have no qualms with the majority of commercial music, in fact 2 of my most played songs on lastfm account are from Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain. I just don't think that it is their most intovative or musically superior album, like most commercial albums.


by the way, you might it enjoy reading the main article in Magnet this month, it's on Chan Marshall, I assume from your sn that you like her.
