I know I make posts like this a lot, but I feel this band deserves to be discussed.

Better than Refused?
Vice Versa?
YOU tell ME!

Me, I love them so so so so much. I've been listening to them nonstop for about a week now.

a pack of wolves:
Better than Refused? Hell no. They are quite fun, but I must admit that I usually just play the Make-Up or The Robocop Kraus' first album when I want this kind of stuff. Refused had the originality, and the music to go with the lyrics. They really did sound like new noise.

For post-Refused bands, I'd say Text were probably the best, even if the one album I have by them is pretty patchy.

boeuf:
Well, I say better than refused because  T(I)NC are more or less the offspring of Refused,

a pack of wolves:
Not really, it's only Denis Lyxzen in them who's ex-Refused and they're in a very different style. Musically Refused were very progressive whereas T(I)NC are very retro. Text was closer to being an offspring of Refused since it was attempting some of the same things, to push hardcore in other new ways, but to my mind much less successfully.

And not every band that comes after is an improvement. French Toast are ex-Make-Up and Nation of Ulysses (in the form of James Canty), but nowhere near as good as those bands and actually fairly weak.

Freezey:
I enjoy them both about the same. I tend to listen to T(I)NC a little more though.
