Not that album in particular, but when I listened to them for a week or so a few years back I got into them because of that theme in Creep.
I very rarely decide I like/hate a song the first time I hear it (I wasn't particularly fond of Pink Floyd or Kid Cudi the first time I was exposed to them) so this is still very up in the air. I just thought it was kind of funny that my first impression was "meh" when I know bobbo lurves them.
