Band contribution of underground velvet band

An old joke about "The Velvet Undergruond": Few people bought the band's first record, but these people who bought the record later formed their own band. The real punch line is that "every punk, post-punk and avant-garde pop artist owes the underground velvet band an inspiration debt in the past 3 years, even if it is only indirectly influenced." In the days when bands existed in the late 196s, they were often misunderstood and reviled, but more often they were given the cold shoulder. However, "Underground Velvet" is arguably the most important rock band in the United States after 1965. It was the source of all white artistic noise music in the 197s and 198s, and set a universal standard for violent guitar playing and prickly realistic narrative lyrics writers in rock creation.

You can randomly list the names of a lot of famous people influenced by it: David Bowie, Brian Eno, Patti Smith and those punk musicians who all graduated from CBGB Club in the 197s, as well as The Cars, The Pretenders, Joy Division-New Order, U2, REM, Sonic Youth and so on.
