They were a good act. But their sole album is wildly overrated (exception: Frozen Love) and despite claims for originality they did sound familiar, even occasionally derivative.

It was the mix of their attributes with Christine's voice, and that powerhouse rhythm section that made all of them.
I agree. This is what I"m saying. I've always been a huge fan of B/N album. But taking a step back and realizing it's not breakthrough material, opened my eyes a bit.

Especially after listening to MTM and Heroes. Those albums are really really better than I've given them credit for.
