I'm not saying that those bands were not a huge influence but I would say that the british Indie scene has been more influenced by morrissey and marr in the past two decades.
If you look at some of the biggest (and most critically acclaimed) bands in the past two decades most of them cite The Smiths as a huge influence (The Libertines, Muse, Oasis etc).
which is funny because i don't hear the smiths in any of those bands. johnny marr's playing is next level, no one can recreate that sound
