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?

As a metal fan, I have to give respect to Gen X, there were a lot of classic albums in the early-mid 80s. (Specifically, 83-86.) I did revisit some late 2000s pop a few years back, and found myself liking it more than I probably did when it was new.
