Post your favorite band decade, by decade

[CubanSucks]

Actually, we haven't. Since there was never a year zero, every decade starts on the '1' year, so the next decade will start 1 January 2011.

So if every decade starts with the '1' then what is the '0'? Would the year 2000 be considered the 90s to you?

[mrsmaalox]

70's - Steely Dan

Excellent. That's my favorite band of every decade.

[Duff McCartney]

Upon further consideration, I'd put Queen over Led Zeppelin as my favorite band of the 70s.

[redzero]

Pixies should get honorable mention for the 80's/90's.

80's - Duran Duran

Oh, I didn't realize you were a girl.

[J.T.]

60s Beatles
70s Zep
80s Guns N Roses
90s Ace of Base or Matchbox 20 (I cant decide)
00s WGAF it all sucks anyway

[J.T.]

Upon further consideration, I'd put Queen over Led Zeppelin as my favorite band of the 70s.

You might as well just go turn in your . Right now. Go turn it in.

[J.T.]

Oh and mono. Most of the time I respect your on here. You're probably like a top 15 all time troll imho. But Duran Duran? That just knocked you from upper middle class to poverty level scrah. Doesn't help that you list SP right after them, which everyone knows is the group s listened to before Coldplay got a record deal. I'm really disappointed in you tbh. Might as well go with Duff McCartney and turn in your too. Just turn it in.

[4chan]

70's Jimmy Hendrix,

>70's
>Jimmy Hendrix
>Jimmy
>not Jimi
>also implying he was alive in the 70's

[JMarkJohns]

Too many good groups to mention from the 60s/70s, but I'll mention CCR, Skynard, Floyd, Stones as favorites...

80s: Megadeth ... runnerup, U2 (only decade I liked 'em)
90s: Alice In Chains ... Smashing Pumpkins ... Nirvana
00s: A Perfect Circle ... Citizen Cope

Other greats that are more transitional than dominant within a decade include GnR, Public Enemy, Beastie Boys, Anthrax, Tool, Radiohead, Deftones...
