How is our decade so far music wise?

I for one think its been great, better than the 90s and 80s were. There have been tons of fantastic CD's this decade so far.Film-Guy

well the 80's sucked and the 90's were all leadinng up to the current stuff

This year to me has been one of the better years for music this decade.

Overall, decent though.

60's 70's and 80's PWN this decade like no other.. But it is better than the 90's

Eh, nothing that really blew my mind made in this decade. Then again, the 90's were filled with grunge :roll:majoras_wrath

I dispise much of our current music, it just sounds like crap and hurts my head. Not to mention everyone sounds exactly the same and all those idiots with the guyliner and dirty bedhair.

I'm gonna say Hairbands > Guyliner

Pearl Jam and Soundgarden are decent, but otherwise, no. Only a few of the bands I like started in the 90's.

00s has way more poo than gold. buuuut

All I wanna do is *BANG BANG BANG* and a *click, ching* and take your monay!

ah yes, the current 1 hit wonder who will be forgotten once all the posers are tired of that song.

Dance music is still great, so I'm happy.UssjTrunks

Some catchy songs I enjoy but no band has made me take notice of them in a good way. As far as the last three decades go...80's > 90's > 00's.LJS9502_basic

I think the 90s were better than the 80s imo. Much more interesting progressive music, the 80s just had the depressingly bad Genesis and Yes pop that ruined the bands.

Damn some of you are really negative on todays music, just because the mainstrea music sucks doesnt mean the whole decade sucks too. You have to look for the best bands. Film-Guy

What about Blur?

Yes, I do like brit-pop and most of the british music scene (minus oasis). Other then that, I can't say I love that much from the 90's.

I guess I better amend my previous statement. This decade has been better the most, least in the underground scene. Some truly creative bands (GY!BE, Sigur, RH, Twilight Sad) have released spectacular albums. I think mainstream sucks worse then ever though.

I dont know where you were going with that, what was your point supossed to be? I have said many times that mainstream music before our decade was much better than ours but now we have to search for the best bands.

I can understand people hating mainstream music of our decade because I do too most of the time, but if you cant find a band you like these days then you are not looking hard enough.

I didnt narrow down the whole decade, I just said that in terms of progressive music I found the 90s more interesting. Sure there were some interesting progressive music made in the 80s, but the 90s was when progressive metal really started to take off. I wasnt talking about alternative music, though if you have any suggestions I would be glad to hear them:)

Thread wise overall I am, I just was talking about Prog in general in that post. Again I do welcome any new bands, I never really got into 80s alternative.

There are so much artist and different language or country ones, I can't be sure what music are you talking about.

Uh, MIA is a pretty good artist...In a weird/quirky kind of way. That single isn't how the rest of her music sounds, though.

I think it's a great decade, and right before and after the decade started was the best IMO (most of my albums are from 98-02).

I'm sorry what?

Some catchy songs I enjoy but no band has made me take notice of them in a good way. As far as the last three decades go...80's > 90's > 00's.LJS9502_basic

imo it seems like the music industry as a whole gets worse as each decade passes by... you could really go back 6 decades and it would go like this (quality of music per decade as a whole) 50's>60's>70's>80's>90's>00's. if we have poo bands like nickelback, blue october, seether, puddle of mud, etc. (and this is just alternative music) in the 00's i'm terrified of the crap i'm going to hear on the radio in the 10's.. your thoughts?

My thoughts are that you have to go back in time and look at the really bad stuff. You can't just look at bands like Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles and think that's how the past always was... It's not like in 20 years people are going to be listening to Soulja Boy.

I think it's been awful. While there have been a few catchy songs that have caught my attention, I haven't found any modern bands/artists that I actually like. And most of the mainstream music out there is the same "rap" song that in actuality is some guy talking into a voice box to an awfully poppy beat or a band with a bunch of emo guys who wear all black and put on more eyeliner than any girl I know singing about how bad their life sucks.Sora529

Mainstream always sucks, you need to look underground... Modern music is just as good as any other time period, it's just harder to find.

like i said in my earlier post, if you look at the music industry as a whole it seems like it gets worse as each decade passes by. when i say music industry "as a whole" i'm talking about the all the different genres of music in the decade, the good and bad music in the decade, and the quality of the good music and the how crappy the bad music was in the decade...

That's mostly the fault of record companies banking on easier-to-make music selling, because it does. I don't think it has anything to do really with music being worse, it just has to do with record labels pushing bad artists, because for some reason they sell :(
