Music Banter - View Single Post - Which Influential Band Inspired The Worst Bands?

To contribute, I would like to say that Aphex Twin, who I love very much, has inspired some pretty awful techno acts. Don't get me wrong, he's influenced a lot of cool people, but some of the people influenced by him are incredibly bland.

EDIT: Also, Boards Of Canada influenced Owl City and a lot of bad BOC clones so Boards of Canada is just as bad as Aphex when it comes to bland IDM and pop acts.
