You know I've tried really hard to like that album, but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't convince myself that I wasn't just listening to a mediocre Tool rip off. I kept the album because it really does compliment a Tool mix, but I very rarely listen to it on its own and never bothered to look up anything else by those guys. It also is a good choice if you're driving with people who like metal, but not extreme metal, and want to listen to something other than the usual suspects in alternative metal.
I also downloaded that Have A Nice Life album because your description of it seemed to resonate very well with a writing project I'm working on right now, I'll get back to you with my thoughts on it after I can give it a proper spin.
