I've only read through part of this thread, but since everyone here seems to be gaga over them I suppose I'll play devil's advocate and say I don't see what's so spectacular about this group. I can see how they *could* be spectacular since they have a nice, fresh sound and a few great ideas (especially on Discovery), but all their albums just seem so half-assed and repetitive that aside from a few exceptional passages they're really just generic club music with a 'heavier' than usual sound. When you look at a group like the Chemical Brothers who were overflowing with ideas early on in their career and made a few albums that evolved consistently from beginning to end, DP just look really shallow in comparison.
*awaits flaming*
