Now that we're about two-thirds of the way through the "new" decade and the first of the 21st century, what do you think the 2000's will be most remembered for?
1950's: birth of rock and roll, Elvis, Chuck Berry 1960's: Beatles and the British Invasion, Bob Dylan, the Psychedelic Era 1970's: musical excess: birth of heavy metal, Led Zeppelin, prog rock and Pink Floyd, disco, punk, album-oriented rock 1980's: MTV, new wave, U2, hair metal, Broooce!!, rise of rap, Metallica, Madonna 1990's: Grunge and Nirvana, hip-hop, rise of teen-pop, Korn and NU-metal, Alternative Nation 2000's: ?? |

I think this decade will be remembered for the decline of NU-metal and the return of METAL-metal, Lamb of God, Shadows Fall, 3 Inches of Blood, sort of 80's revival, and bands such as Mudvayne and more edgy metal.

problem is, the 2000's hasn't really had anything new. I suppose "Crunk" and "Nu Metal" are the closest things to fresh genres this decade. I think the 00's are more like the 70's as opposed to the 50's, 60's, 80's and 90's, as in the sense that while there have been a lot of successful artists, there hasn't been just ONE icon that symbolizes the whole decade, like Elvis in the 50's, Beatles in the 60's, Michael Jackson in the 80's and Nirvana in the 90's.

I think the 2000's will be remembered as the decade where people stopped buying music from a store.

It's also the decade where people stopped making music. All you hear any more is electronic noise punctuated by by caterwauling!

I think the whole punk/goth pop thing is fairly new to the 2000's. I mean, punk rock music was in the mainstream during the 90's, but most of the so-called "punk rock" music on popular raido today is only heard on popular radio. It doesn't really start out on rock/alternative stations and ease it's way into the mainstream....it's marketed just for mainstream.
Also, garage rock, though it's kind of declined now, was pretty big in the early 2000's. |
