cb_diamond Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I wanted 60-70's but I went for 60's. For some pretty immense soul. voted 90s as I was a teen and a lot of styles and great bands emerged after the musical abortion that was the 80. BUT 1965-1975 was the best ten years ever for music, lots of legends at the peak of their powers (beatles, stones, who, zep, hendrix, doors etc), some amazing soul and funk and great styles like Americana really taking off.

forehead7 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 90s for me. Music between about 85 and 05 was really good for me. Metal and punk really thrived during that time. And the grunge movement just produced loads of quality bands. I agree with Mik, 80s had it's great bands, the Big Four and Maiden but its hair metal just brings it down for me, can't stand that shit, and late 00s just doesn't live up to the standards set at the start.

YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Voted 60's! Would loved to have been around as a youth back then. To be honest though, every decade listed there has it's fair share of great music. Have to say though that the 00's had the least. Not a great decade for music IMO.

Broccoli Dog Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 every decade has produced some great music, but with hindsight the 90s is actually pretty damn weak. i think this decade will be a strong one in all honesty, probably the best since the 80s. and britpop...

Dariusz Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 every decade has produced some great music, but with hindsight the 90s is actually pretty damn weak. Suppose that entirely depends what kind of music you are into. For rock fans, the 90's was a wet dream. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Faith No More, Rage Against The Machine, Soundgarden, Therapy, Tool, Deftones, Foo Fighters, Kyuss, QOTSA, System Of A Down, Manics. It was about 7 glorious years of brilliant brilliant music that I dont expect to ever see repeated in my lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was about 7 glorious years of briliant brilliant music that I dont expect to ever see repeated in my lifetime. If you add in the punk revival(Rancid, Bad Religion, NOFX and the likes) then that's why the 90s beats the 80s and 00s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you add in the punk revival(Rancid, Bad Religion, NOFX and the likes) then that's why the 90s beats the 80s and 00s. and are you saying that any of these monkeys match up to the likes of minor threat, flipper, black flag and bad brains. pffft. the 90s was a toilet of a decade.

Come on now, to much American in that list. 90s was a peak in British music; Oasis, Blur, Travis, OCS, Cast, Shed Seven, Ash, Feeder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you must've forgotten that In Utero was released in 93 Yes I am. Minor Threat? Is that the band that were only about from 1980 to 83? f**k off. Only heard of Bad Brains out of the list but I've not heard enough of their stuff to really make a judgement call. But aren't they more like hardcore punk, so more like a Suicidal Tendencies(another great 90s band btw) rather than a just straight up punk band? What I will say is that they'd need to be something special to be better than either Rancid or Bad Religion. Rancid's base lines especially, second to none IMO because Matt Freeman is the best bassist in the world. Bad Religion are just fantastic, lyrical geniuses(genii?)
