Which decade has the better music? (pop, psychedelic, punk, rock)

Well see...OK Computer is my favourite album from Radiohead...and i think both Absolution and Origin or Symentry are at least as good or better ....but i dont think i could claim Muse as a "better" band

Well, my favorite Muse album is Origin Of Symmetry.... And the only Radiohead album i don't like more than Origin is Pablo Honey.

But thats just because i'm a Headhead... And i prefer a few other britpop bands to Muse... Like Super Furry Animals, Primal Scream, Manic Street Preachers, Blur, Oasis, Pulp and Stereolab.

Hell, do Gorillaz qualify as britpop?... I find myself enjoying their s/t debut more than i do Origin.

How about live performances...Muse is sooo tight...The Hullabaloo albums own... Matthew Bellamy is perfect live as well

Yeah...it's angers me sometimes...I mean The Backstreet Boys also...it's awful...but we very rarely get tortured with that unless I've done something really bad :P

Like when I got fired...It was Backstreet Boys, Westlife and Good Charlotte for a month...

Well, i will agree that Muse are much better live... Though i think Radiohead own them in the studio.

Radiohead make strange use of overdubs and splices and techniques in which instruments are digitally distorted to create a surreal sound... Like Pink Floyd used to do, and that makes it very dificult for the songs to be recreated live.

Well said...But i think Muse own them in studio too *makes shy face*

...especially when put next to emo fans...lol!!!

The world is filled with jacka$ses that create and listen to every different type of music, so I wouldn't consider every person listening to a certain style dumb or an a$shole either.On the other hand, I would like to call you a dumb jacka$s if you were to think that emo (dare I use the word) musicians were more musically talented than prog musicians.I simply don't consider people screaming and/or whining out their depressing lyrics musicians, let alone talented(?)!!!

Prog > Emo.
Emo = Lonely, whiny pop-punks.

You obviously don't even know what emo is.
How can emo be pop punk? Pop punk is pop punk, emo is emo.

I guess some people just don't have common sense.

I am just so anxious to read your emoticon filled reply.

Hey kiddo take another look!!!I said lonely, whiny pop-punks, not just the basic, everyday MTV pop-punk crap!!!Now, if you want the regular old MTV style (preschool) pop-punk go listen to your Blink 182, Good Charlotte and Sum 41 albums.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention this, but dare I say pop-punk is greater than emo.Man, it took a style as terrible as emo to make me say that pop-punk was actually better...
...now that's sayin' somethin'.

Now where's your common sense, youngster?
