By “important” I mean that it didn’t just become hugely popular, but it also changed a music genre or launched an entirely new one, or otherwise made a huge impact on music in general.

I’d argue that you got the band and the reason right, but with the wrong album. Chaosphere. Not as dreary as their later albums, but the seeds and saplings are clearly there.
Plus every metal drummer I knew back then tried to learn New Millennium Cyanide Christ.
Yeah I was debating between saying Chaosphere or Nothing, I can definitely see your argument as well. Really cool band with incredible musicians all around.
