At the time, exactly. Just because the Beatles may have influenced most bands today doesn't mean they did it better; many bands are taking rock n roll/pop music in much more interesting directions than they ever did. I'm sure caveman art plays some pioneering role in today's art, but only in the most basic of ways.
Pet Sounds broke pop music conventions for a whole album. And yeah, i know about the recording techniques. They may have been "unheard of" for pop at the time but that's just pop/mainstream; it wasn't invented by the Beatles.
The Rubber Soul influence is majorly a stretch. The classical influences there are minute or background factors whereas Pet Sounds is based around Classical music on a pop platform.
