I believe he was more influenced by Pynch than your standard sci-fi writers.

The weird style of Neuromancer is because he imitating GR. Unfortunately he gave that up instead of developing it, had enough of himself in there that he could have pulled together his own unique style from it instead of reducing style to prescription and plot. But the Pynchon of genre is old pulp adventure and crime.

Pretty sure Gibson and Pynchon grew out of the same soil.
