Suicide was certainly influential on electronic music. They predate a lot of the CBGB's bands by a few years and were a bit too alien for their time but they're massive.
Live stuff gives you a better idea of why they were so alienating. If I could get a time machine to see one single band live in their prime it might just be Suicide.
