Which decade has the better music?

For me it's the 70s?... Why?... Because rock music had become pretty diverse but at the same time new creative forms of music were being born... The 70s had a lot, classic rock and prog was barely just a scratch of the service when it came to all the great music that was being made... R&B, Funk, Punk rock, you name it... So when someone is gonna say that i'm closed minded for voting for the 70s because i'm some classic rock elitist, they can go to hell.... They're just being a bunch of assh*les who think that if they like the same banRAB as their parents that makes them "uncool".

This is just preference of course, because i don't believe there to be a factual answer to this question.
 
The fact you are wasting your time looking this crap up is sad. Why would I come this this lame message board and lie about seeing a crappy rock band play?
 
its a fine line between 60's 70's and 80' but ill have to say the 60's because with black sabbath coming in the late 60's i really began to get into them a lot when i wanted to look back on some of the old rock. and it also led me to ozzy osbourne which i love even more. a band leading to another band is a good thing for me. :o:

sad how ozzy was replaced with Ronnie James Dio. and with the new stuff Ozzy has put out, he's starting to lose a rock edge a little bit. =(
 
Hey kiddo take another look!!!I said lonely, whiny pop-punks, not just the basic, everyday MTV pop-punk crap!!!Now, if you want the regular old MTV style (preschool) pop-punk go listen to your Blink 182, Good Charlotte and Sum 41 albums.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention this, but dare I say pop-punk is greater than emo.Man, it took a style as terrible as emo to make me say that pop-punk was actually better...
...now that's sayin' somethin'.

Now where's your common sense, youngster?
 
Please explain how that makes Dream Theater prog then. They sound like a run out of the mill prog-metal band to me which going by that logic defeats the purpose of being progressive.
 
Most post-punk banRAB sound nothing like Joy Division. Erase Errata is a current post-punk band, and they're much more indebted to the NYC no-wave scene but they're still pretty unique.
 
so people realised how bad the music was, and changed styles accordingly?

good stuff has come out of every decade, so has bad. to say that any decade is in every way better music wise than any other is trying to compare psychadelic 80's dance pop synth to 90's grunge etc. and the earlier greats of Hendrix and The King. it just doesn't work, really.
 
Oh, it's called Molasses in the US I think. It's a by-product of sugar refining. It comes in tins with a lion on the front (well, sometimes)!
 
i'd much rather be listening to music now than any other time because i can still listen to older stuff anyway. plus the internet allows us to learn of more obscure banRAB that we wouldn't have heard of anyways. plus production these days gives banRAB a whole lot more utility
 
I actually laughed out loud at N*S*G's thing that electronic-based music hasn't changed but I can't find the perfect quote so I'll just reply this way. :p:

This genre in particular benefits from technology and I'd love to see how you can show that artists like Autechre and Aphex Twin are ripping off the groups of the late 70s like Kraftwerk. There's a million miles of difference.
 
They all had great music, obviously. Find it kind of strange though, people going on about how they wish they lived in an earlier decade (not necessarily in this thread, just saying). It's nice to be around now. Have access to all of the older music, as well as the newer stuff. Think of what you'd miss out on if you spent your teen years in the '60s or '70s...

Guess it would be nice to see a few particular banRAB live back in the day, but eh...
