Unfortunately, this also makes it a little simplistic -- the group can craft a naggingly memorable hook, as evidenced by the single "Semi-Charmed Life," but they aren't always able to fashion them into songs. Still, Third Eye Blind is easy on the ears, and its straight-ahead professionalism makes it a pleasurable listen for post-grungers.
It's one of those dirty little secret bands that few self-respecting indie/alternative/rock-ers will admit to listening. But could it be that it deserves to be given a second chance? :gasp:After all, yes, the music ocassionally sets ones teeth on edge, but the lyrics... they redeem and elevate the band on a bloody fucking pedestal."And I won't get enough until my legs are broken"-BURNING MAN"I ...

it's funny how sometimes you don't truly understand lyrics until you live them. and once you understand them, you can't even explain them to someone else. the understanding is in feeling, not in words. these are some lyrics i never understood until they held truth in my life.That's when I knew I could never have youI knew that before you didStill I'm the one who's stupidAnd there's this burn...
