I don't know how anyone could consider In Rainbows mediocre.
I guess since people have such high expectations of the band that anything less than a perfect 10 is "mediocre".
Give them a break, nobody can recreate the same success of that
one album over and over again, it's a great album, I hate when people always have to compare a band's album to their previous work instead of just judging the album on it's own.

I'm sorry but what I've heard from The Feelies is just incredibly awful.
