They are just so fucking important though. They are to post 70s underground music what the Velvets were to post 60s underground music, thier influence is heard EVERYWHERE. They simultaneously created Industrial, influenced Noise and Power Electronics, influenced the punks to take wierd drugs and use synthesizers and create "Post-Punk", you can hear them in much early Noise Rock; particyularly stuff like Big Black and the Buttholes. It just seems a lot of bands totally changed thier musical perspective when the Gristle came to town.
