Honestly, I find Entertainment! to be underwhelming too. It's certainly not sterile (I reserve that term for Stadium Arcadium) and there are a couple of tracks I like, but it sounds rather flat to me.

On the topic of funk punk, I'm not quite sure what I used to see in Double Nickels. I do like it but there's a shedload of filler and this is coming from someone who's grossly biased towards anything with nice basswork. How anyone can think it measures up to Zen Arcade is beyond me.
