Do I think The Misfits influenced others? Totally! I'm a huge Misfits fan and enjoy their mix of punk and metal. The later sins of their Graves and Only eras don't change the fact they made some excellent music.
semantics...true...but still the things you were pointing out actually are a result of being influenced. and i stand by my point that listening to a band and being inspired to pick up an instrument and start a band yourself is showing that band has a GREAT influence on you. so if all that the misfits was was 10 songs and 1000 kids starting bands because of it...yes i would say they are highly influential.
