calling someone a songwriting genius is comical ...unless they are, and Tobias has a skillset and has figured stuff out on how to promote this band, but he is not a songwriting genius.
If writing 5 albums where you also write every instrument piece, every lyric, mostly by yourself, and even when you don't you're still the majority writer, and even playing EVERY INSTRUMENT on one of your best albums... doesn't make you a "songwriting genius," then NOTHING does.
