Ah, okay.
You're still a pussy, tho...
Talking about music always brings out the simple ones that think they know it all, that knowing lots of facts about music supersedes other people's opinions. After all, art is about opinion, not fact.
But the 90s were definitely best.

Care to explain?
Perhaps I should've winked.
Here ya go...

And The The's best LP was written in the 1970s. The closing track 'Another Boy Drowning' alone is (in my worthless opinion) many worlds better than any shoegaze or gothshite since.
80s was gaze-up-own-azz picky-pocky electro jazz, pretentious moaning back-combed hair-men covered in talcum powder and the re-birth of mindless stadium rock pub-singers in pixie-boots. Gah.
The 90s was spackled with hope and a genuine slow explosion of ambient/electronic wonders and new genres. Rock-wise, the 90s was a re-worked seventies vibe but with encroaching self-conscious 'irony' and the 'knowing' wink-self-stupid attitude that has by now infected nearly everything :/
🙁 No one ever mentions Psychobilly

It wasn't a The The album.
It was released in 1981.
^ technically! Meet you halfway at the crossover 😉
I think Matt Johnson singlehandedly saved the early 80s for me

He also got to tie a young Neneh Cherry to a railway line.
Top video that!
Malvern - no Iggy in your big 70s list? Naughty boy.
^ true! No Stooges, no MC5, I think I deleted a whole chunk by accident. Too many world-changing greats to list off the top.

Somewhere in my spew you'll find a 'mangy old rockabilly dog with a few sharp teeth'
