It's very influential and even more, it has influenced bands that I love.

The thing is, I hate this album with an undying passion. I don't know why, I just do. I've tried 4 or 5 times and each time I just hate it more. It just drags on and on and by the time I finish it, I wonder what my life has come to. The fact that it's "weird" or "Challenging" isn't why. I just hate this thing. Now, it's far from the worse album ever, but it's the album I hate the most, beating American Idiot (which is a truly godawful album) for that illustrious title.

What I think it is is that the album as a whole isn't very influential...it's tiny little elements here and there - a certain guitar hook or a particular vocal stylization on a particular song. There's a little for everyone if you're really into music and are listening to individual pieces of sound in the songs. But taken as a whole...it's hard to even call it music. It's a cacophony of sounds that is so random as to be completely unappealing to most people. And it's not a "challenge" - the songs really just aren't musically good in the aggregate, even if individual parts of them can be inspirational.

What did you expect from it? What did you get instead? Accept the latter, not the former.
