And I think due to the mainstream elements it's better suited to Crossover than Eclectic (for me they're significant enough).

Unfortunately they're too Eclectic for Crossover.

But nor enough to be out of Space Rock, IMO.

They would personally fit best in Crossover or Eclectic (concerning such a wide range of styles, wider than most bands on the site) although Psychedelic and Heavy both fit different parts of their career.
I could never see them in Progressive Metal though. That would essentially be judging a band based on a few minutes of their expansive discography?!

Not progressive metal, agreed. But still, I would have to vote if not Crossover they should go in experimental/post metal.

Still, I can't see them ever as a metal band. Even in the incident, there was alot of stuff that was not metal at all. They are not considered a metal band. Metal as just an ingredient in their newfound mixing pot.
