Muisc4Life26: Musical Decades Ranked

Muisc4Life26 03.03.15	how's it going everyone?
zakalwe 03.03.15	50s post war teen rebellion spawned rock n roll 60s conflict and drug culture aided creativity and originality 70s talent was honed new genres formed, anger was an energy 80s alt and post comedown plus hip-hop 90s a last hurrah and a mix of everything that came before with splashes of bleeps and bloops 2000s albums influenced by preceding years made by people whose souls were diminishing 2010s albums influenced by preceding years made by clueless fuckers.
Let 03.03.15	90s >>>
AnimalsAsSummit 03.03.15	wow i thought of 90s almost immediately as #1 too
NeroCorleone80 03.03.15	The 70s are definitely my favorite. 80s would probably be second.
dimsim3478 03.03.15	i'ma say 2000s just because most of my favourite albums were from that decade. that's not to say that it was an overall better musical decade than any other; in fact, i'd argue that it was probably the worst, disregarding the 2010s which aren't over yet. a lot of how we judge music against time these days is by estimating the degree to which music has been commodified, which i think emerged most strongly in the '90s in the aftermath of alternative and punk commercial success. Perry Farrell said something once along the lines of "at that point the record labels decided 'no more freaks; we're just going to dress up some girl and give her a song and make a ton of money'". even the most popular, commercial music from before the '90s seemed of a higher calibre than that which has been produced more recently (except for disco music). however, pop music is becoming significantly more interesting again in the 2010s imo.
SharkTooth 03.03.15	70s should be at least 2
wtferrothorn 03.03.15	@zakalwe #wronggeneration
ChoccyPhilly 03.03.15	Most decades are filled with flaws but the flaws of the 2000s are obviously more prominent because shit in prior decades didn't fester long enough to reach our ears
Sowing 03.03.15	I'd put the 70's and 2000's at the top, but I like the 90's too so I can dig.
treeqt. 03.03.15	1720s or 1740s 1820s 1900s and 1910s
MO 03.03.15	needs the 40's so hard. so many of the big band greats were around that time
DrGonzo1937 03.03.15	70's>>>>>
IronGiant 03.03.15	60s/90s, 2000s, 70s, 80s, 50s
IronGiant 03.03.15	2010s would be tied with 70s tbh too much great music from each period (sans 50s, just because I don't listen to any music from that time) to be condensed down and ranked arbitrarily
zakalwe 03.03.15	2010s tied with the 70s? Your bolts need tightening Iron
Flugmorph 03.03.15	90's are where it's at agreed
NorthernSkylark 03.03.15	probably 70's > 60/90 > 80/00 > 10
YetAnotherBrick 03.03.15	the 90s has always been my favorite, sweet list
zakalwe 03.03.15	Living through the 90s I said the 60s. Progressing through the 00s I always said the 90s During the course of the 10s im swayed to the 70s
YetAnotherBrick 03.03.15	i think the 2000s have a lot more good shit than people realize when they're asked this question
Flugmorph 03.03.15	00s are pretty sweet and 10s are also great so far. Cant find much for me before the 70s
ChoccyPhilly 03.03.15	yeah 00s and 10s re the shit
zakalwe 03.03.15	It's cos you don't have soul and can't rock Flug. When it comes to being a music lover you've fallen at the first hurdle son.
zakalwe 03.03.15	Sorry I take that back I can see you still dig the 70s You've fallen at the first hurdle Choccy son.
Royl123 03.03.15	90's, 70's, 80's, 00's, 60's, 50's.
ChoccyPhilly 03.03.15	I'm barely interested in rock these days tbh. I respect the 70s stuff but I just want to hear new and different things right now
Ichangedmynametojeff 03.03.15	You can't rate musical decades. That's just not fair.
Let 03.03.15	Well when the 90s have hip-hop, IDM, Death Metal, Techno, Shoegaze and Alt. Rock all experiencing creative peaks, it's pretty easy to put it ahead of pretty much any other decade
Cygnatti 03.03.15	The 90s is the single most overrated decade ever.
Flugmorph 03.03.15	good u took that back son
adr 03.03.15	90s > 70s > 00's > 60's > 80's > 50's tbh
DustyTill 03.03.15	60s=70s>90s>50s>80s>00s
NeroCorleone80 03.03.15	70s > 80s > 90s > 60s > 00s > 50s
Pestiferous 03.03.15	90s >80s = 70s > 60s >1400 >>>>>>>>>2000's+
SharkTooth 03.03.15	70's>90's>80's=60's>2000's>2010's
SitarHero 03.03.15	"even the most popular, commercial music from before the '90s seemed of a higher calibre than that which has been produced more recently" QFT
Muisc4Life26 03.03.15	I didn't put the 010s because it needs to at least be 10 years but who what will happen in 2020 ;)
SitarHero 03.03.15	"The 90s is the single most overrated decade ever." Why do you say that? I mean, sure, it may be overrated, and it had a lot of the worst music ever recorded, but the '90s were a great time for experimentation and had a technological advantage over the '60s/'70s which still makes it the best decade for music.
Ignimbrite 03.03.15	this thread is fucking retarded DAE le wrong generation???
SharkTooth 03.03.15	"even the most popular, commercial music from before the '90s seemed of a higher calibre than that which has been produced more recently" 90's pop was a hell lot better than 80's pop that's for sure
Let 03.03.15	(Synth) pop is one of the best things about the 80's mang. So many catchy songs. And of course there's the whole Kate Bush thing too
SitarHero 03.04.15	"90's pop was a hell lot better than 80's pop that's for sure" Boybands. Europop. Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. The end.
Ryus 03.04.15	90s were my fav too
TalonsOfFire 03.04.15	90s > 70s > 00's > 80's > 60's > 50's
SharkTooth 03.04.15	"(Synth) pop is one of the best things about the 80's mang. So many catchy songs." It's also one of the worst things about the 80's, especially with shitty acts like Lionel Richie and Starship
Funeralopolis 03.04.15	00's > 90's > 70's > 2010's > 60's > 80's > 50's
SharkTooth 03.04.15	"Boybands. Europop. Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. The end." Europe, New Kids on The Block, and Journey tho
Flugmorph 03.04.15	"I was born in the wrong generation omg im so sophisticated"
brainmelter 03.04.15	uaghhhhh 50s,70s,90s,60s,00s,80s
Flugmorph 03.04.15	Hoho
SitarHero 03.04.15	"Europe, New Kids on The Block, and Journey tho" Europe and Journey get a lot of bad press, but they could be pretty kickass.
rockandmetaljunkie 03.05.15	the 70's are by far my favorite decade. The 60's are my second favorite.
treeqt. 03.05.15	i have a question directed at everyone how does it feel to be so wrong
treeqt. 03.05.15	no that one was very rude i can not agree with that one
SharkTooth 03.05.15	In the words of James Brown "Woo! I feel good"
TwigTW 03.08.15	70s, 60s, 50s, 80s, 90s, 10s, 00s
Flugmorph 03.08.15	most shit i'm listening to is from the 90's onward tbh
Flugmorph 03.08.15	ah you're back...great...
Flugmorph 03.08.15	your dad.
