my point was, when deloused was released everyone was going apeshit with tmv and rightly so because it's a great album (there's also the pink floyd archetype that help them a lot, many people project the floyd in the mars volta), then they released more...self indulgent, over ambitious albums and, you don't see their videos anymore and not many are into them, not as much as when deloused was happening anyway, and you kinda see who is into them, whereas before, pretty much everyone was a fan. they got more "specialized" and so their fanbase became more specialized.
