As bad as the music of the 80's supposedly is, the 90's are far worse. There are almost no artists of note that came out of the 90's, at least when talking about popular music. There are some indie bands or performers that did some interesting things in that decade, but that is music that reached a smaller audience.

Actually, most anyone trashing the 80's is usually a liberal. Their hatred of Reagan is the primary reason for hating the decade.

BINGO! To be honest, Reagan was an acquired taste for me. I was quite the natural moderate centrist type circa 1981. One thing for sure though, I credit Reagan with planting the first seeds of far right conservatism with me. It took a few years for them to fully sprout (mid 90s). That said, in 1984, I attended one of Reagan's speeches and was completely blown away. In fact, it changed my life forever. Talk about positive impact!

I'm afraid if you had to ask me to name one good band from the 1990's, I think all you'll get is a "South Park Stare" (TM) and the sounds of crickets chirping.

Mega-Dittoes on that. I remember the libs' hatred of Reagan then and even now although it is only surpassed by the hatred of President Bush (43).
