A lot of SOAD's stuff is pretty obscure, I assume bands like Mudvayne and Sevendust or Atreyu and A7x (depending on how young you are) got more people into metal than SOAD.
I know they are a widely popular band and I enjoy a lot of their stuff but I always considered them to be an original act similar to mindless self indulgence. (At least in their earlier years.)
