i have no real relation with the refused other than i have enjoyed their works but i'm not really one to say on how much i've listened to their albums for ages. but a mate of mine was a big fan of the album "the shape of punk to come" and i've heard the whole shebang at his house. it's probably very influential but to be honest it's been praised and patted on it's back to death already so there's no need to do any indepth analysis.
my favourite song of the album is the one that grabbed me the hardest on the first listen. actually that's a lie, that song would be "new noise" which i heard on either ztv or radio. but after that it was "the deadly rhythm" which starts off with this lucious jazz sample but is broken up a thunderous beat.
the other thing i love is the fact they do use the jazz influence well and how it breaks down to an upright bass and the drums switch to a looser drum groove. something tells me that someday i will probably sample that bit and work it onto something else.
