I thought m0drnmoonlight made some good points, particularly this:

But they still sounded brilliant and that's what matters!
I don't think there are that many bands who people can reasonably expect anything but that from. I'd be happy with that from any band, any rarities is a bonus. I suppose it goes with the territory really, the more you like/liked someone the higher the expectations, which I suppose can be quite likely to lead to disappointment and that's not for me. I just think they get more criticism than they deserve, I don't see what's arrogant about thinking that. Bringing up "Blind worship" is different.

They should've tried to get on the bill for Coachella or SXSW by now, at least.
