I'm sure that there's more identical indie bands mimmic'ing SY tunes, but as for major label bands, I always thought that Pavement sounds influenced by them. And I always thought the Smashing Pumpkins had a little SY vibe..... especially when that song "1979" came out. I just couldn't hear it without thinking they were cop'ping SY.
Another one would be Explosions in the Sky
and in general....... pretty much every rock band popping up today in some way or another, where influenced by Nirvana.... and as most rock bands today sound like other bands that were influenced by Nirvana.... I think Cobain was highly influenced by SY. (if that makes sense?) So countless bands are indirectly influenced by Sonic youth.
