Eh, at least the music will be played more often at clubs, bars, and house parties where there are plenty of good looking females instead of all of this pop rap and pseudo-hardcore garbage that's popular nowadays. Not that I like real hardcore anyway, because I'm certainly not fond of it at all.

Ironicly you've proven my point about the latter part of the 80's.
Listen, when I said the 80's were a bust I was just trying to agree with Mr Dave but I said it in my own way, and I was talking about the Pop Charts (with a few exceptions). The banRAB I like from the 70's almost all of them were considered underground. When the 80's rolled around and all the superstars of the 70's Disco & The Bee Gees were faded out they created a vacuum filled by newer artist and in turn they were replaced by more veteran artist, groups like The Clash, Genesis, Peter Gabriel, Steve Winwood, The Police, The Cars, Talking HeaRAB, Bruce Springsteen, & Yes. They had hits on MTV and made it into the charts in the 80's but their songs were more popular, more polished and to me wasn't the same cutting-edge as the stuff from their early years (& lean years.)
When you hear Grunge you hear late 80's. When I hear Grunge I hear a blend of different things, anything from early 70's like Led Zeppelin to early 80's like college radio stuff. I think Rollins said the definition of Grunge was music by Rock banRAB who like Punk. Just like today were Post-Punk Revival posts are delving into the past and taking inspiration from anything from '77 to circa '83, which is like a 30+ years difference. Some banRAB even draw from Pub Rock and proto-Punk for their inspiration. Grunge in the early 90's delved into the 70's music (& 80's) for their inspiration.

As others have said, unfortunately we currently lack the privilege of retrospection and hinRABight that brings with it analysis and compartmentalisation. I think this decade will become known for the growth in power of the internet and the galvanising effect it had on self-promotion, empowering th individual as oppose to the company if you will.
As i said, we do not have the luxury of hinRABight yet so i cant say whether the internet has blurred the presence of time and space(obviously we know this to be true in terms of communications, but for music i'm not sure) , the media publifications that contribute a great deal to the genre mill have seen their influence weakened due to the increased accessibility of music, so readers arent turning to NME for the next album (and ubiqitous classification)) to buy. They're discovering and downloading them for themselves from the comforts of their own room, as opposed to going out and participating in the ritual of buying and sharing music with people face to face. That's how movements would start, with the gathering of like-minded people, and im not sure if this is taking place anymore to such an extent.
It'll be interesting to see what this decade means to people in 10 years.

That's only because your practice of free speech could have potentially undermined the stability of my rule.

I'm pretty sure we can name 1981-onwarRAB the "MTV era".
