At this point, the band looked to be falling apart. However, they were persistent, and after hearing of Faith No More and Mr. Bungle frontman's liking of the band, the band requested him to collaborate on an album with them.

Adam Doll was the original bass player for the band The Dillinger Escape Plan. Just as things looked to be up for the band, this tragedy struck. However, the band discovered Greg Puciato and asked him to join the band as their lead vocalist.

The album turned out to be much more experimental, and include much more jazz-fusion elements and electronics. Weinman's guitars were not as prominent in the mix, and Pennie's drumming was not as demanding. However, their newer, experimental sound was a hit with critics, as they garnered much attention due to the shift in sound. This, yet, split fans, as some embraced their new sound while others detested it.
The critical reception for Miss Machine was relatively favorable, with Allmusic going so far as to say, "There's nothing more to say — the next true image of rock & roll has crawled out of the swamps of Jersey. allmusic (previously All Music Guide) is a Metadata database about music owned by All Media Guide.

" Rolling Stone, however, was negative, noticing "unless you're trying to drive a third world dictator out of his barricaded palace, you'll be hard pressed to listen to Miss Machine in its entirety.
