I agree. With the 90s I find I often have to dig a bit deeper to find my preferred records, the most famous ones (which may have nostalgia for others) often don't impress me that much. And although some often seem to equate metal with the 80s, I don't that much. I might like more metal from later as it might be slightly more elaborate or progressive. But the decade had lots else besides the big US rock sound anyway.

The 90s for me are immortalized in the math rock, indie rock, post hardcore, noise rock, post rock, hip hop, ambient house and IDM that the decade spawned. Still a great 10 years of music, and actually one of my favourites.

I didn't really listen to newer popular music in the 90s so none of it holds nostalgia for me. That just leaves me even more free to just explore and pick out what from scratch what actually appeals to me. So with Britpop while I like, for instance, some Oasis songs I'm also quite critical of some of their stuff and don't really think by my estimation that they have done a truly classic album.

I mean, I like music from the 50s through the 70s, and I wasn't born in that timeframe. But the 80s? There's VERY little that I like from that time period. And I was born in 81, so what's up with that? |

i dunno, just being swept by the tide at the moment in retrospect, i don't think many people who were younger could get caught up in big hair, parachute pants, NES-like synths or videos shot in Sri Lanka |
