Radiohead: Yes. I'm not their biggest fan and they get far too much hype. However they aim to constantly expand their sound and are talented musicians.

The Kinks. Yes Not as innovative as The Beatles but arguably better in my book and quintessentially English.

The Beach Boys . No Even allowing for the fact that I don't like them, i don't think they had as much impact in the UK (except for The Beatles) and they are mainly remembered for surf hits.

Public Enemy. Yes Crept into the mainstream whilst never compromising their principles and still eminently listenable.
