in the 80's the new wave and hair band era's
in the 90's the grunge and britpop era.

this whole decade has been a decade of nothing, all the good bands have been pushed underground the same bands that would have been relvent in the 60's or 70's, while few have been able to remain commercial and be original. Record companies are in panic mode now, cd sales are decreasing every year and this is why they don't push talented artists like they do for there commercial crap.

Music will never be the same again and it sickens me.
