I don't think they see Lost Highway as a failure, if anything they admit it was wrong to call it a country album. Half of the damn album is still in the setlist (Lost Highway, Memory, Leaving, We Got it Going On, I Love This Town) they all get played pretty often.

I think it's funny that every album is treated by the press and band as a "return to the rock sound".
