When Will The 2000's Decade Start/end?, Some thoughts on 2005 pop culture.

As hard as it is to believe, this decade is finally just about done (in the most literal sense, that is). It almost seems like yesterday that the whole Y2K scare was going on, although I guess the younger ones here wouldn't remember it as well.

Right now, we tend to remember the '90s for the grunge - and bands like Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, and Alice In Chains are some of the most notable bands from that decade. As for Boys II Men and All 4 One, not so much.

I do wonder what bands this decade will be known for. I guess we'll wait and see.

I'm wondering if Audioslave really counts as a new band from this decade - since it's comprised of three members of Soundgarden, and one from Rage Against the Machine. Both of those bands were quite big in the '90s.

BTW, it's hard to believe that this topic was started over four years ago. Of course, that was before I joined.

Queens of the Stone Age are pretty good. I like their song, No One Knows.
