Does the guy who wrote this article know what influential means?
LCD Soundsystem, Arcade Fire, Interpol, & most everything from 25-50 (with a couple exceptions) are bands that literally haven't had enough time to influence anything & will be forgotten about in 10 years because they're not that good.
20 years from now when we look back on 2000-2013 Arcade Fire & that shit might as well be flock of seagulls.
You know what people will remember? Deerhoof.
BTW: Where are (since this list seems to be more of a list of bands that influenced alternative/indie whatever):
VU, the Stooges, Television, Roxy Music, King Crimson, David Bowie, Daniel Johnston, Big Star, Mission of Burma, Polvo, Archers of Loaf, The Melvins, & The Ramones?
