Phish is amazing. Their studio stuff can get you hooked, but the greatness of their compositions & improv is really apparent when you start listening to live shows - especially when you get really hooked and try to collect the thousands of shows they've played. Some people don't like their goofy style (i'd just call it fun) though, but most just haven't actually listened to the actual music.
They're definitely a band to check out - get Junta, Lawn Boy, Picture of Nectar, Lawn Boy and some of the live shows. Their music is so varied that you'll probably find something you like. Phish is at their best playing live.
