This is why wikipedia is so stupid. A bunch of citations to out of context quotes to bulk the article up. Little to no actual analysis of why they are significant or worthy of an article. But of course the inclusion standards are so woefully low that any shit band is worthy of an article.
Objectively speaking? Judging by the amount of bands they dinfluenced? Ramones.
