Grandaddy ripps off Pavement (but in such a lovely way, totally excused)

Band of Horses singer sounds like The Shins singer (two different bands though I guess)

Hum wasn't a rip off band. "Stars" does sound like The Smashing Pumpkins, but the rest of their stuff was totally creative. Plus, they have the whole space-rock vibe that the Pumpkins never had.
