Really?
I think you have to think of what was new this decade and compare it to the previous decades. The 70s saw prog, hard rock, further development of jazz fusion, disco, funk, metal and punk for example. The 80s had lots more metal taking different directions (thrash, hair metal, early black metal), power ballads, hip-hop, synth pop, post punk, new wave-ish and goth bands like The Cure, Sisters of Mercy or The Smiths. The 90s had eurodance, techno, rave, boybands, RnB, further development of black metal, various kinds of alternative rock like grunge and britpop.
These are just some things off the top of my head. There's a lot you could mention, but what have the 00s given us? I'm not saying there's nothing, but comparatively less.
