    didn’t they have some good punk/post-punk in the late 70s/early 80s. i guess that was at least a tiny bit influential on late 20th century pop culture

      It’s funny that the example that came to my mind was Swans! I don’t know how much they affected pop culture in general but they definitely left a mark on rateyourmusic and Fantano.

        I don’t think Swans affected much outside of the relatively niche subgenres that are in the same orbit and I think Michael Gira would HATE IT if anyone told him his music influenced pop culture lol. They are very important for heavy music-heads though I love them
