I gotta go with Nirvana. Sure they arrived relatively late to the game, but they changed the game (as cliche as it is). You can hear their influence all over modern rock radio today, and they opened up the door for a lot of underground bands to gain more mainstream recognition. What they lack for in originality ( you could argue Pixies, REM, or The Velvet Underground had a big hand in their sound) they make up for in breadth of influence.
