Was 2000-2005 the darkest period in musical history?

1991-1996
Do you mean dark as in the quality of music or dark content.

The former.

Ah, then definitely 2000-2005

I'd call it more 1998-2003 that was the darkest 5 years.

Late 2003-2004 was when indie really began to come to the forefront.

1998 was when post-grunge and nu-metal metastasized into Creed and Limp Bizkit.

[spoiler]As someone who went through middle school and high school in the meant of those years, all that shit was completely off the hook in its time[/spoiler]

There's nothing wrong with nu metal. At least their songs were actually badass which is more than you can say for Justin Bieber.

Exactly. It had had a real edge to it and wasn't meant to be easy listening.

Post-2011 indie is little better than champagne music for millennials

It wasn't that bad

It was horrible, Gorillaz was just a glimpse of hope, but everything else was shit

...

Please user. You are exaggerating.

...

Just wait for the nu metal revival in the 2030's

Newsflash--Top 40 has always been terrible. You think in the late 70s-early 80s you heard Judas Priest or Van Halen on the AM dial on the way to work? LOLno. It was all shit like Boston and Journey.

Wow look at all this stuff! Man the 00's sucked!

Really just the fucking worst I tell ya

I mean if there was a 5 year period to remove it would be 2000-2005. Yup. Aids incarnate

dude we fucking get it you're an MF DOOM fan or whatever but you could at least give different examples than the same god damn artist

Sure EZ

Op this is getting boring. TLDR there is good music in every era you just need to look

This is true, although I'd say 2001-2005 was unusually bereft of new and interesting music.

No. More like a surplus of bad music.
