An absolute masterpiece. It's made such a big influence on modern "extreme" music, even though it's hard to show exactly where (other than things like Death Grips).

If it had a huge influence, shouldn't you be able to demonstrate that? Or is this just another one of those situations where we take an assertion from you and run with it, trusting you to eventually have evidence to support your claim?

I really like this. The idea it had a huge influence is a bit, in my mind, far fetched. But it is a really engaging, intense, in your face hardcore punk album . I love how it mixes some
Kinda jazzy stuff in there. It's pretty awesome!

Razz I know that wasn't a very convincing statement, but dang, listening to this sure makes it sound revolutionary. But I guess its influence was taking the hardcore punk aesthetic/lifestyle and applying it to non-rocky contexts.

To appease Satie's agnosticism, though, I will present a .5-star (which is harsh even by her standards) review from the almighty Horbgorbler.

Brilliant album, I love the blending of influences. I still play this frequently, great bump-in-the-whip type music.

OK first and foremost Dillinger Escape Plan exists and, I checked, if you just google "bands influenced by Refused", is like the 8th article down.

Second, there's a really cool article here about the band's own opinions on a variety of things as well as the shape of punk today and how they didn't really impact it, like at all.

I duplicate my comment of the album here:

-------
Solid post-hardcore/punk album!

The album title is amazing and takes all his sense when you listen to the 3rd song (Deadly Rhythm), which is in my opinion of the best post-something song of all-time.

That's only the tip of the iceberg. Refused has influenced more bands than I can even remember to mention so I don't understand how it is "hard".
