Massive Attack:
nontraditional musicians as soundscapists using reggae/hip hop/avant garde production techniques

But then Throbbing Gristle, Caberet Voltaire, Suicide

My Bloody Valentine
Sonic saturation built upon Sonic Youth/Branca

Sonic Youth
Sonic satuartion built upon Glenn Branca

Slint
1st post rockers

Pixies
continue the punk mantle

Nirvana
continue punk mantle with noise/metal or is Mudhoney, Green River, etc

Joy Division
huge influence now and on grunge bands

How about Siouxsie and Banshees plowed similar ground as JDivision?

Julian Cope
More influential now as writer and Urmetalist, then as a traditional melodicist

Actually there are a lot, I don't know if there ever is any ONE most influential at any given time.
