Probably my least favorite decade--either that or the '00s.
In reality, my full decade down period straddles the two, running from the mid 90s through themid 00's . Really very little for me there relative to what came before and after, especially in rock, at least as far as the big names go. If it wasn't for Jazz, New Age, and World Music, it would be a lost decade.
I do think the 90's was a cool decade but I feel musically the 2000's as well as the 2010's so far. Also the best album of the 90's was California by Mr.Bungle.
I agree, the 00s and 10s are phenomenol! California is a great album, kinda forgot about Mr. Bungle in general.
Definitely not, although I may have thought so at the time as a deluded teenager... Still not as bad as the 80s.
Ranks behind the 1970s and 2000s in my top 100, with the 2010s sure to surpass it if this decade continues to be good. _________________ http://distranscontinuum.blogspot.co.uk/
Despite my changes in taste, my favorite music throughout the years has always been skewed towards the '70s and the '90s. If I had to guess why, I would say that it probably correlates to the maturation of rock and atonal jazz in the '70s and the growing prevalence and sophistication of digital technology in the '90s and musicians' reactions to that. I think these kind of miniature paradigm shifts that occurred in the way we view music, one social and the other technological, produced very exciting music
The final day for my newest favorite singer, Steve Sanders of the Oak Ridge Boys that is, took place in 1998 and so to me, what came from him before then is what makes the decade so special, I love him so much. ๐ข๐ข๐ข
God bless you and his family always!!!

The 90s were great but my favourite decade of music is 86-95. The Smiths, Nirvana, Puxies, REM (Life's Rich Pageant thru to Monster - what a run), Sonic Youth (their best work was late 80s and early 90s), Beastie Boys (Licensed to Ill thru to Ill Communication), Public Enemy and NWA so influential in this time, shoegaze and early britpop, etc. The early 80s not so great, later 90s lost it's way a bit but late 80s to early 90s is where it's at for me.
Also gotta say I'm loving this current decade too but there is a lot of 90s influence at the moment so that makes sense.
