Hmm, tough call.  I think I'll go with Siouxsie, because how many other people can you say singlehandedly invented both a musical subgenre and a fashion statement?

	Siouxsie and the Banshees vs. Television Siouxsie and the Banshees were one of the first "goth rock" bands, sporting the confident vocals and theatrics of Siouxsie Sioux and the guitar brilliance of John McGeoch, they went on to inspire the Cure to go in the goth rock direction. From the New York scene, Television were known for the dazzling guitar work of Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd. With their album Marquee Moon, they have continued to inspire guitarists to this day.
