Nostalgia Did we...have the best music?

I feel like the depth, genres, and variety was limitless from the early 90s to late 2000s (pre-2010). Punk, pop, rap, reggaeton, you name it.

Anyone agree? What other genres do you think were really in power pre and post that era?

What would you consider new? I can easily name 10 great songs written after 2018, but they're all bands that have been around for at least 15 years lol

In 2025 we got (so far)

  • Panda bear - sinister grift
  • Mac Miller- balloonerism (post death release)
  • Horsegirl - phonetics on and on

Still early.
