Seriously? The hipsters TODAY have already forgotten about them. How do you expect them to remember the Strokes years from now?

...which is why there are entire little communes devoted to Julian Casablancas's ears?!

There are so many variables that come into play when speculating about a question like this. It only takes one bad album, or a hugely successful one for that matter, to bury a band, and one great album to set an artist's career on a new and improved trajectory, but my predictions are:

TV on the Radio
Fleet Foxes
Animal Collective
Dirty Projectors
Arcade Fire

You have to note that there is no way to predict what hipsters will be like in 25 years. Check back with the teenage hipsters when you're about 40. I'll bet you'll be surprised (this comment is not directed at the Strokes. If they were/are hip, I totally missed it - case in point). For certain, future hipsters won't be much like today's hipsters at all.

The Strokes were loved by both the underground and critics so the hipsters were just waiting for a reason to hate them. Now that hipsters don't like them, their kids will. It's just how it works...

Sigur Rós
Hammock

A pretty lengthy list but I'm confident in them

Hammock are one of my favorite groups ever, and I don't mean any exaggeration by that, but I seriously doubt they will be the first thing that comes to very many people's minds when you say "2000s".

The things that will likely be most remembered, unfortunately, are the pop artists who actually stay around for more than one hit and are active in the tattered remains of the music industry. ex. Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, etc.

I think a lot of the lesser known or "indie famous" (like Animal Collective, that are hugely well known and hyped but unknown to the average music listener) bands that a lot of people on last.fm and forums and stuff listen to will be pushed a bit to the way side; waiting to be rediscovered by the Musicbanters of the future.
