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.

You've missed a whole bunch of genres like

50's
Doo-Wop
Rock-a-billy
60's
Bobby era (UK)
Instrumental Rock
Surf Rock
Nashville Country
Bakerfield Sound
Acid Rock
Garage Rock
Soul
70's
Soul
Pub Rock
Art Punk
Post Punk
New Wave
No Wave
Philly Soul
Disco
Southern Rock
Soft Rock
New Wave
Dawg music
80's
College (Radio) Rock
New Jack Swing
Shoegaze
90's
Alternative
Post Grunge
Space Rock
00's
Screamo (circa ?)
Post Punk Revival

I give up too many to remember

When I think of this era, I just think of a lot of crap Indie bands.

I like some bands in the Garage-Rock Revival and Post-Punk Revival. I think one the most underrate and least appreciated music era was from about '77 to the early 80's.

Well since the topic focuses on eras of music I at least expect to see hip hop mentioned in the 90s.

What ever happened to good grammar and the proper use of apostrophes?
