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.
but yet how many bands today took that "baroque pop" format?

i can only think of the High Llamas

whereas the general style of the Beatles has been adopted by tons of bands, the Click Five, Our Mother Peace, Coldplay, the Smithereens, Wet Wet Wet, Oasis, to name a few

That^ really seems like a slim margin in comparison of musical influences?

Were The Beatles a better band? Yes. Is this subjective? I would say no.

Thing I learned from this thread: subjective opinions about music are, in fact, objective truths.

Some people think The Sex Pistols are the greatest band ever. Opinions can be wrong
