Honestly no that's pretty representative of their style. You might try Holding on to You from Regional at Best, it's another one of my favorites of theirs. But really it does just boil down to them being a bit overwrought, especially compared to other bands I know you enjoy.

I didn't think about that VW comparison much, it may be wrong. Meant not so much musically as stylistically and attitude-wise. We'll see. Modern Vampires is incredible, speaking as someone who didn't like the first two albums much.

EDIT: a preemptive thank you for whatever's in my mailbox! I'm away from it for a day or two but I'm excited. Hope the postal service managed to work, can't always count on that.
