Gildenlow is a genius, incredibly versatile. Today's music is amazing.
Also, I have the same opinion about Eminem, don't listen to much rap, but I can listen to him all day long.

Newer rap does nothing for me. Eminem is awesome. That's me.

It doesn't matter if it's older or newer, still it's Eminem > everyone else combined. He is so deep and introspective that it makes me relate with something I would've never thought I could relate with.

Yeah man. Eminem's superior to the other rappers of the world. New and old.
Btw, when are you gonna update the vocal performances thread?

90's were definitely the best years for metal and rock music. Also rap was at its best during 90's, a fact.

Nu metal was (mostly) pretty embarassing but yeah, there are lots of acts that don't get enough praise.


Wut? For overall rock, 60's/70's destroy 90's with no holds barred. When you said 90's had some of the best albums of all time, check our list, it had 2, compared to the 60's/70's 80%+ of the list. 90's weren't bad but 60's and 70's take them with no effort at all, saying otherwise would just be ignorance to rock history

I'm only 16, but I think there era of music we're in now is one of the worst. I'd give anything to have been a teen in the 60s or 70s. My friends think it's weird that I don't like "modern" music... AKA - shit...


me and you both, I'm in band where everyone likes 90's and 00's music, and I'm literally the ONLY one who is stuck in the best era ever, all my friends think I'm weird too, I want to either go back in time, or I should start a band with the mission of reviving the style of 'classic rock', aka tasteful rock that takes blues and jazz to points of complex and beautiful composition

Also, I hate rap but I do LOVE Eminem with all the passion I could offer. Also, I suggest you all dig into music from different decades, I've literally spent the last 5 years of my life exploring nearly every band on these lists and any with notoriety (and those without, found via recommendations) from each decade, and I suggest you all do as well. You'd be surprised how many people on this site haven't even heard 10% of the best albums list, or even the top 10. After listening to everything so far (and it's A LOT of stuff), nothing beats the 60's/70's. And 50's nearly ties 90's, until I honestly explored Berry, Elvis, Holly, Everly Brothers, blues in the time, etc. I had no idea how AMAZING and revolutionary music was back then, and it compiled to a peak of creativity, evolution, beauty and complexity in the 70's, and then started to die in the 80's (there WERE good bands, but rock lost it's beauty, complexity, and emotion all together). 90's revived rock popularity, but destroyed it's beauty, complexity, and emotion to an extent (minus Pearl Jam and some things along those lines, and of course Dream Theater and Tool). Rock took a big fall again in 00's, with very few bands saving grace, and some can hardly be called rock. The only band I loved in this era and bet would save rock music (Coldplay) let that hope die with their recent album Viva la vida, peaking at popularity and thoroughly lacking originality and emotion (compared to Rush of Blood and Parachutes). We need another musical revolution, or rock will die, and I honestly think the only way is for people to stop being bias and refusing to ever listen to classic rock and start exploring EVERYTHING, and then we will realize how music evolves, and find the greatest aspects, combine them, and create another new rock revolution, if this follows the basic regime cycle (revolution, peak, fall, slight recovery to prevent full collapse, stagnation, revival, revolution, repeat).

alright, so Carl and Brian were nearly both top 50 before, and I believe they deserve a similar position on the new list, I could see us moving either both in top 50, or one in top 50 and other in top 60, they were such amazing and influential vocalists.

EDIT: Oh wow, just checked our songwriters list, the whole top 50 is all 50's-70's except for 3....all from the 80's. Yeah, 90's had the best musicians in rock ever :roll: The best rock artists top 100 is all 50's-70's except for 13 from the 80's, and just 4 from the 90's. 80's overall sucked worse than the 90's, but the best musicians of the 80's far out shined those of the 90's according to DDD's lists.

I know, I like the 90's much more than 80's, for me it goes 60's > 70's > 50's > 90's > 80's > 00's, however, I was just saying this website's list seem to think differently. But yeah, I may have said this before, I like the 90's, but I'm just an oldies guy :)

90's feature some of the most iconic and groundbreaking albums ever released.


like? I'm always looking for new albums to listen to and explore, other than Nevermind, In Utero, Dirt, Jar of Flies, Ten, Lateralus, Undertow, Images and Words, Pantera and some Soundgarden albums, nearly nothing else 'groundbreaking' comes to mind, and I wouldn't even consider half of those 'groundbreaking'. But I'm curious, give me some more music to listen to, always looking for that

You do realise that it gets harder to be groundbreaking for every second that passes? I could probably mention a bunch of groundbreaking artists, but I don't think you will like the music, since it has to move away from all of the standards of music. Aphex Twin is one example.

Oh and also, 00s>80s>90s>70s>60s

But then, I mostly look for new music. I'd much rather find a band I like that is still active, than one that split up 30 years ago.

00s is really the only period that I have real knowledge about, and I can easily say that I can mention at least 10 bands for every genre that is either good or great that is still active.

From what I have gathered, the 70s seems to be a highpoint in music, while the 80s is a much more bland version when the focus wasn't on the music.(I still like the 80s more though because I'm a sucker for synthpop).

The 90s may not beat the 70s when it comes to breaking grounds, but it was a step up from the 80s, and spawned lots of new genres and the music started to head in every possible direction.

00 is probably the highpoint of the cheer amount of music. Anyone can record and put a song on the web. The popular music is just as bland as always, but the internet has made it possible for a lot of alternative music to reach a broader audience. The best bands can't be found on the radio, but it doesn't really take much to find them.

Oh and, The Downward Spiral wasn't very groundbreaking, it was simply making the type of music known to the masses. It's the Nirvana of industrial music.

For me personally...
