Techno. Chasing after some of those weird sampled sounds has led to a whole lot of discovery for me.

tangent, there used to be a venue in youngstown ohio named nyabinghi. it had NOTHING to do w/ rasta though, was more like a dirty/metal/biker bar, don't know where it got the name when it was created...

Dylan Carlson, Greg Ginn and Vomir are huge influences on my Shoegazing jams.

The Delfonics, Medieval and renaissance choral music, Thin Lizzy, Doc Watson, Allman Bros., and a world of other things which probably wouldn't be easily recognized by a listener. I hear them obviously. But I know where to look/listen for them. I like threads like these 
EDIT: Perhaps my most unusual influences are the sounds that can be heard in swamps. Alligators bellowing, mosquitoes/flies/bees buzzing, cottonmouths hissing, bubbles, crows...my Phantom Octave really captures many of these sounds, specifically the insects, snakes, and alligators.

Black Metal's also a pretty big influence on us, and Ulver in particular. Especially on the last EP.
