If you listen to the Bush Tetras you can hear some influence (they have a song that goes "I don't wanna...I don't think so" like Kool Thing). Thurston and Lee played w/Branca and you can hear how that influnced their guitar sound (Lee also played w/Rhys Chatham, another NYC post NO Wave guitar composter) Branca and Chatham probobly also introduced the Idea of alternate tuneings... I'd also mention Television (the band) for their off the beaten path approch to the two lead guitar thing...
