A band that was kind of their own worst enemy with regard to following their own success.
An inability (unwillingness?) to define whether they were supposed to be taken seriously or as a joke followed by the (reportedly) alcohol and cocaine fueled departure of the unique sounding frontman, left them with one follow up album and fortunes that were already declining within 3 years of their peak.
Subsequent reformation has amounted to fairly little, with the "are they serious or are they some sort of inside joke" crown being assumed by Greta Van Fleet.
