Squeeze. Also George Harrison literally made the most Beatles post-Beatles song ever https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVu6nPTVbBQ

2000s Beatles were obviously Animal Collective. Tally Hall have a vague musical resemblance to the Beatles I guess but come nowhere close in either quantity or quality of output. AnCo were constantly in the 2000s, reinvented their sound every year, and even had the same group dynamics with Avey & Panda being the Lennon-Mccartney, Deakin the George, and Geo the Ringo.
of course they were never as popular as the Beatles, but no band has been.

Their entire musical identity is directly inspired by The Beatles. Even their album named "Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum" is very clearly a riff on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band.

I mean yeah but being inspired by the Beatles musically isn't enough to make you the "next Beatles". otherwise you could say the Olivia Tremor Control are the Beatles of the 90s, or Klaatu for the 70s. but obviously that's not really true.
I think the defining characteristics of the Beatles was their quantity and consistency of output, the fact that they reinvented themselves year after year, and their in-group dynamics. none of which Tally Hall of all bands really share.
the other metric would be their popularity, which would change the conversation altogether.
but in any case just sounding kind of like the Beatles isn't really a good metric imo.

Klaatu didn't really sound like The Beatles in my opinion, they were just Psychedelia but so were a lot of other 60s bands. This just comes from all those rumors that they were the Beatles operating under a different name which is completely retarded in retrospect and probably was back then as well.
