I believe Bare Naked Ladies came out less than 20 years ago. It's canadian, and it rocks!

There is lots of bands I like that came out in the last ten years ish
There is stuff like
Blink 182
The Offspring
Reel Big Fish
New Found Glory
Bowling for soup
Less than Jake
Spunge
AFI
Feeder
Ash
HIM

Those bands rock

AFI

But think about it... Classic rock TODAY is considered what was 'popular' 20 years ago... 20 years from NOW, Britney Spears and all that computerized dung will be classic 'pop'... LOL.

Blimming heck!

I do hate to go on but people...
When you talk about a band being good, you say:
[band name] are good.
not
[band name] is good
By Christ.

Linkin' Park are rubbish. Sum 41 are pretty dire unless you're at a party and hyper. Green Day and Blink 182- annoyingly dire. Same with Ash, Bowling for soup...I could go on listing almost everyone mentioned here.

Super Furry Animals have some cracking singles. My Bloody Valentine are pretty good.
I'm not going to make a huge list as I have matters to attend to, and I don't use neopets, but I will say this: Don't complain about the state of music if you aren't willing to get off your backside and try listening to something 'experimental'.

Heh Igg, that grammatical error bugged me too.

I used to think Linkin' Park were total rubbish until I saw them and they were absolutely amazing. I can honestly say that live, they have got to be one of the best bands I've ever seen. Totally awesome.

Spice Girls started a while back. They sounded good as well. Now give me my 5k.

I'm not joking. You cannot sit there and say they did not have good voices. Everyone knows that. And how about TLC?

Well I'm gonna sit here and say they did not have good voices. In fact, they were terrible! All they had was a good PR team behind them and a lot of leopard skin. :roll:

Incubus. Definitely Incubus. God I love Incubus. Though... they started in 1991. But they're still going strong.

Well...

I like a lot of the old bands, actually. Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins. I can't stand the mainstream rock of today. Though the alternative has some appeal.

You're right... It's either little girls trying to act like their sisters or some rich suburban wannabe traumatized punks that are making the bands these days.

Anyway, you've got great taste in tunes girl!

Yay someone loves me

Amy, Franz Ferdinand, Razorlight and Keane are just WRONG!

Nooooo. Everyone says that about FF to me, so I'm used to it. But

Razorlight's album rocks muchly, and Keane are great.

Lol, this is funny, this board is just all opinions and stuff.

Igg, how dare you say Green Day are dire.

I like Keane, and I agree about FF, I can't stand them. At all. Razorlight get annoying too.

How dare you Igg, insulting Green Day AND blink-182!

MUSE = LOVE x 50948092860

Dude. Yeah. But hm, I think that (in addition to Muse) Keane, Weezer and STEVE BURNS (I realize he's not a band, but hey, he rocks. And don't laugh XD) are all pretty awesome. But I have really odd taste so I'm sure people out there right now are rolling their eyes. *whistles*

I'm rather insulted by the Keane-dissing! I think it's just a matter of taste. I think they have a very nice sound, myself. But I'm with some of you guys on the Franz Ferdinand, Green Day, and Blink-182.. they're just kinda obnoxious, in my opinion. But, of course, this is coming from Miss Ska-Is-Fun.. so.. ignore me.

Am I the only person who doesn't like Muse? o_O

I like a few of their songs, but Absolution was the worst album ever.
