They're two of the 3 B's of Rock, The Byrds, The Beatles and The Beach Boys. They replaced the 3 Classical B's - Bach, Brahms, Beethoven (sadly The Byrds are forgotten.) The 3 B's of Rock in turn have been replaced by the 3 L's - Linkin Park, Lady Gaga and her country-counterpart Lady Antebellum.

The Beatles broke trends then created a new ones... trends that we are still on today.
Trends like The Kooks?

Groups that do harmonies are the best imo. But I think I know what you mean, Brian was into weird melodies and chords plus they did that kinda not-so-into it harmonies (a good analogy would be Beach Boys:harmonies::Unplugged:playing the song for real.)
