The Dandy Warhols

As evidenced by their name (and many other things) the Dandy Warhols were clearly influenced by the Velvet Underground.  With that said, they were also happy to embrace current Alternative trends and Power Pop sounds.  They had a lot of respect within the musical community and they were college radio staples.  With a few flirtations with mainstream success they got themselves on a few people’s radars but overall they will be hard pressed to stack up for induction when their eligibility year comes up.
