Favorite Bands/Artists Through the Decades


High and Wide

Recommended Posts

Its pretty straightforward; what are your 1-3 favorite artists through the decades? Lets say from the 60's through the 2010's. If you'd like to go earlier than that feel free to do so. Just for clarification, list bands/artists that came to prominence in that decade, not necessarily that started. EX: Led Zeppelin in the 70's rather than 60's. Here are mine:

 

1960s

Simon and Garfunkel

The Beatles

 

1970s

Led Zeppelin

Pink Floyd

Billy Joel

 

1980s

Rush

The Police

 

1990s

Radiohead

Alice in Chains

 

2000s

Muse

Incubus

Modest Mouse

 

2010s

Band of Horses

Arcade Fire

Fleet Foxes

 

Just thought this would be a good way to kill some time, share some music, etc. So what are yours?

Definitely. For me its Aerosmith, Van Halen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Blink182, Brand New, Sublime, many others.

 

Overall, I'm very particular with my music. Luckily many of the bands I love most (from the 90s) are still putting out new music. So, I haven't strayed much from that.........even as I've grown older and wiser...........I mean OLDER.

This is how I was, but I like a lot more bands/artists now than I did even 4-5 years ago. That said, there are bunch of bands I don't even attempt to listen to anymore that I liked when I was growing up.
