I've never 'got'

Wait. I'll check your thread to save time.

Teach me some new metal. I'm stuck in 1984 (almost)

Probably a good place to stay, you know, the 90's were a grim decade for music.

But the Ez're good, Ez're good! Lovely. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

The 90s produced no fewer great bands than any other decade.

True. And also some boybands.

the 90s produced fantastic music.

Formed '99

There are noticable exceptions. Both of my favourite ever bands* were active in the ninties, but in terms of overall trends, it was not musics finest decade.

Turin Brakes don't count, forming in '99 and calling them a ninties band is like me calling myself an eighties child, I was born in '89.

*Hot Cross and Harvey Milk, since you asked.

Just sticking to bands that I get the impression you'd like that formed in the 90s (and inspired by your love of citation):

This obviously doesn't prove that the 90s produced as many great bands as, say, the 70s but the perception that it was inherently worse is more to do with the way that people in their 20s experienced music from each decade. It also glosses over the fact that many bands formed in the 80s produced their most relevant albums in the 90s (Earth, Soundgarden, Godflesh).

Look at the charts (which I can assume represents radio play to a fairly good degree) from any decade and you'll realise that radio was awful. It's only by picking through the stuff from the 70s that survived that this notion of it being inherently better (musically) than the 90s is arrived at. I'm sure that, in the same way that people often consider the 90s the nu-metal decade, there will be people who are currently 19 going "the "noughties" were just full of Crunkcore bands", which is shit.

So, in summary, the 90s weren't as bad as all that.

Ok, Sleep were a 90's band. I take back everything I've said.

none less than the rise of Bill Orbit

People who don't find Dubwar interesting can go and listen to Boyzone. For a week. Non-stop.

Dammit.

You guys are discussing the 90s based on rock bands and boy bands. What about the multitude of other genres that developed and matured throughout the 90s?

Genres that may not be all that popular today but nonetheless have totally influenced the sound of music today.

Trip-hop was good. Bigbeat brought back eclectic music.

I've never got The Cure.

You must have been a happy teenager then.

I have now listened to everything posted in the dub thread and I still don't get it.

Dub Step != Music
Dub Step = WTF
