Well, the problem for me is, besdies Digeridoo, I haven't heard any of those songs (besides "Creep" which I'm sure I've heard before) so I really have no idea what their influences sound like...

Anyway, as far as other influences...if you go even before Eno, there's krautrock, and I wonder how much of what UW does is influenced by Can, Neu!, and the like? I know Rick cites Kraftwerk, but honestly I have to wonder, being really into Can, how much their music influenced modern electronica?
