OK, they scream pretention. They go from being an energetic, fun live band to coming out wearing cardigans, scarves, and, to be honest, Jesse Lacey has a fucking Jesus complex. I saw them once, and it was painful. He kept putting his arms out to his sides in Scott Stapp fashion after he finished every overly breathy line.
If you're looking for something overblown and chock full of pretention, I have a list of bands that do it better and with less whining.
