80's and the New Era, Both are awesome.

The 80's is my favorite because it saw the rise of Goth, Industrial, Post-Punk, New Wave, and Synthpop music, while other styles like Punk and Hip-Hop saw some of the best entries in the genre at this time.

60s

The DOORS \m/

I would say the 90's are my favorite because grunge is my favorite genre of music with Alice In Chains (Layne Staley I <3 you!), Mad Season, Nirvana, and Soundgarden. I was a kid and teen in the 90s.

Some of my other favorite 90s bands are Tool and Nine Inch Nails. I also did love some 80s stuff like Guns n' Roses and Metallica.

I grew up in the 80's and I still listen to a lot of New Wave. I never did get into the metal bands and I, of course, hate the hair bands.

For me, the late 50's and mid to late 60's are what rock is all about. The early 60's regressed a bit due in some part to the Day the Music Died until the surfers and the brits got us back on track.

I'll take the Hollies, the Beach Boys, the Crickets, the Ventures, heck, I even had a crush on Leslie Gore for a bit, even though she's old enough to be my mother.

You're into New Wave music too? Its the funny thing about the 80's, while it was producing extremely nauseating mainstream music, the underground was producing absolutely brilliant music. The 50's and 60's produced some pretty good Rock music too, but those eras had a certain dark underbelly of decadence, decay, and self-ruin that would prove to be fertile symbolism for the Gothic rock movement (especially in the wake of David Bowie's self-deconstructing Glam Rock). Since I play a lot of New Wave music and since Gothic rock has a definite flair of Rock roots revivalism, I think you would probably enjoy tuning in to my internet radio station.
