2000 Years of Human Error spawned two singles, "The Reckoning" and the Beatles cover "Eleanor Rigby". It also had a music video largely consisting of vocalist Jason C. Miller singing and walking down a street in slow motion as other band members are seen sitting or standing along the sidewalk in a depressed manner.

The album, considered Godhead's breakthrough, has sold over 100,000 copies to date in the United States.[4] Its success earned them recognition by Ozzy Osbourne and landed them a spot on the second stage of Ozzfest 2001. 2000 Years of Human Error features additional contributions by Marilyn Manson bassist Twiggy Ramirez, Scott Putesky (original guitarist for Marilyn Manson, formerly known as Daisy Berkowitz), as well as Manson himself.
