I have a theory that the best decade of music is the decade when you were doing the most things that the music was the soundtrack to. So in my case, yeah the 90’s. But it’s not a thing I’d argue hard.After getting out of the army in 93 my musical tastes had changed. Music had changed and so had I. I started college and had to start my life.
Hardcore was out (except for NYC HC: vision and madball), the next gen of punk was getting started, but I wasn’t feeling it. Grunge was still there but dying. I got into britpop in a big way. Blur, Pulp, Manic Street Preachers.
And some of the punk/indie rock was good too: Thomas Jefferson Slave Apts, Guided by Voices, Prisonshake.
Garage rock came back: hellacopters, the hives, Demonics, Riverboat Gamblers.
And Oi! and working class punk restarted - the Dropkicks, Cockney Rejects reformed.
It was another great decade in music - maybe the best!! How to choose??
