90s is possibly my favourite decade for music ever…Soundgarden, Tool, and my
first exposure to Killing Joke on Pandemonium.

I think the 90s get a bad rap..but personally think it was a very innovative
time for music. 1988 thru 96..then it all went a bit poo..

your remarks are cute brendan, good for a laugh, but this is not a personal
taste issue.

one doesn't have to care for some of the music of the 50's to understand the
point of ( not blanketing a decade full of revolutionary culture shift into
a simplistic footnote containing two singers and a dull confection) the
effect maniac artists like little richard, link wray, gene vincent,
screamin' jay hawkins and jerry lee lewis had on american popular culture
and it's wake effecting the rest of the industrialized world can't be
denied... all music has roots.

Actually I had to endure my Dad singing that to my new nephew the other day,
ugh…gotta say I can put up with Buddy slightly easier than I can Elvis.



Anyways, seriously when was the last time you had rocked out to the 50s back
catalog with a nice milkshake?

Ooh a downer buzz, my favourite. Let me contribute...

This has been the shittiest decade for music since the 50s.

wait, you mean to say that the 50's a decade when rock n roll stormed the
scene and frightened popular culture into developing some cajones, while
saving the masses from the naive glucose oblivion that had consumed it's
soul was the shittiest decade????!!

that's like saying the people who drove and drug their wobbly archaic
covered wagons full of furniture and everything they owned with a family in
tow, across 2000 miles of uncharted virgin soil, rock, river, tundra, desert
and forest finally reaching the destination after loosing two kids and a
wife to disease and torment, has accomplished less than the fast food junky
who drove his ford mustang over tarmac and through stop lights down the
same path beaten by those covered wagons!


the "greatness" of every other decade since is inevitably indebted to those
years of music in the 50's.





Two zero zero x
should be locked in a room and fed gruel grudgingly until it goes mad and
dies, while Robbie Williams plays in the background.

"Oh but he's such a wonderful entertainer!"

So is a football.

Fuck, the late 80s beat this, this is how bad it is.



That's it.

Mass suicide pact anyone?
