When it comes down to it, all The Sonics were were a garage band who played old rock 'n' roll songs in a loud manner -- influential or not.

No, you are thinking to much into it. Let's just stay within the confines of The Sonics here? what basis do you have to say they were not as influential as made out to be....
"i think I can" is the truth in your statement. that is all you can do, is think you know.
"Their debut is fun to listen to, but it's not nearly as revolutionary as people make it out to be." This statement just says assumption based on personal taste, holds no value.
