In that period I'd have access to cracking albums from the likes of Suede, Radiohead, Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Charlatans and a whole host of others.

  1. I’m going for 1971 to 1981…… peak prog rock years plus punk and new wave. I’m old though….

  4. 1972-1982: Eno, Roxy Music, Rolling Stones, T. Rex, Queen, Slade, all the way through punk, post-punk and into early 80s new wave.

  5. 2004-2014 ish

    BMTH, Asking Alexandria, Architects, Wombats, Kooks, Enter Shikari, Arctic Monkeys, 1975, Kaiset Chiefs and so on.

    So so good

  7. 76-86.

    Start of punk through New wave and the expansion of electronic music.

  8. *looks at my CD collection*

    Seems I do this anyway.

    2002-2012 +/-2 years in any direction

  9. ‘81 to ‘91. It starts for me around the time The Human League’s Dare is released, goes through synthpop, hip-hop, house, rave, indie, rock, metal, and then ends with Nirvana’s Nevermind.

  10. That’s a lot of Cliff Richard’s number ones to sit through

  11. I’m going with the same period as you. If I sort my top 10 albums in chronological order it starts with *The Queen is Dead* and ends with *The Bends*.

  12. maybe 94-04?

    dummy by portishead, my favourite blur records, a good chunk of radiohead’s discog, interpol’s best stuff, the first gorillaz album

  14. 1995-2005 works nicely for me. I could maybe push it a couple of years either way, but I’d need to include 1997 and 2003 for two of my all-time favourite albums.

  16. Maybe 2000-2010. I need West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum in my life.

  19. I’d be stuck, honestly, between two periods.

    The 80s as a whole, because music on the radio just seemed so much better to me as a kid than everything after it.

    1992-2002, because those were my childhood and college years, and the metal scene and all its various subgenres were pumping out a lot of great stuff during that ten year span. Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, Korn, Limp Bizkit, Deftones, Static-X, Slipknot, Veruca Salt, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, System Of A Down, Rammstein, Strapping Young Lad, to name just a few of my favourite bands of that timespan.

  20. Imagine never hearing Vivaldi?

    Or Nat King Cole?

    Or the Backstreet Boyz?

    £1 Fish?

    This is an evil question

  21. I think 99% of ppl will just pick the 10 years when they were 13-23.

  26. For UK specific it would probably end up being pretty late like 2014-2024 even due to the rise in UK black metal and atmospheric black metal.

    Saor, Fuath, Winterfylleth, Ofnus, Ante-Inferno, Cistvaen, Abduction, Andracca, Oneiros, Blood Countess, Aklash, etc.

  27. I’d go from today until 2035 so I have new stuff to listen to.

    Anybody that says nobody is making good music anymore just isn’t looking hard enough! There’s a lot of shit to wade through, but its out there.

  28. 2080-2090

    Not sure how it’ll sound yet, but I’m willing to take the gamble
