i mean i'm obviously going to say this but this decade was incredible for music. every modern decade is, too - more music is being created and made accessible now than ever and it's wild to me that anyone could think that quality levels don't essentially balance out over a ten year period

i feel like the only valid grounds for disagreeing with that are narrow tastes (decades can absolutely be bad for certain genres). in most cases it's just rooted in unwillingness/ignorance as to how to really find the good stuff, or generally waning interest in discovering new music as happens with age to most people

in principle I'd argue the same for film, literature, etc too, though admittedly i don't follow either obsessively enough to be confident in that assertion

I'll get into it in a bit, but I definitely foresaw this counterpoint. I'm trying my very best to be objective, and not let the fact that I'm an old man now cloud my judgement, but I still come to the same conclusion!

I think much of this is due to the decreased emphasis on albums due to streaming. But we shall discuss.
