I don't think it is fair to blame all that crappy music on just one influence. They likely listed to plenty of terrible bands to help them suck so much themselves. I can certainly understand why they all make such unlistenable crap if they spent all their formative years listening to such unlistenable crap.

If they had been influenced by Miles Davis and John McLaughlin perhaps they would play actual music. Who knows?
