Pearl Jam
isn't a touchstone:
Matchbox Twenty
is, as is
Third Eye Blind
, two titans of the smoother post-grunge movement that ushered bands like

, who receives sympathetic support from a band designed to offer nothing less and nothing more. They're nimble -- they cook up a disco pulse on "Supernova" as easily as they percolate pensive pop -- and if they fail to offer a distinctive spin on
