Sleep Dragonaut

Bands where you can very clearly hear the influences?
One that I can think of is The Sword and Sleep. The Sword’s riffs sound so much like Sleeps, it’s not even funny. I got Dragonaut and Holy Mountain (the song) by Sleep, and the riffs and vocal delivery were almost exactly like The Sword. Not saying The Sword is a plagiarizer, but just that you can hear their influences.
The Kooks, they are influenced by The Beatles, and A little bit of Rolling Stones. The Kooks are an amazing band.
