90s has to be the toughest for me. It's easily the best decade for music IMO, but my two favorite bands (Pixies and Radiohead) are clearly split between the 90s and 80s (Pixies) or 2000s (Radiohead). There are an overwhelming # of options otherwise.

70s: Rush
80s: Iron Maiden
90s: Alice in Chains
00s: Foo Fighters
10s: ??

80's - Vangelis

90's - Wu-Tang Clan (HM: My Bloody Valentine)

00's - Sweet Trip (HM: Aesop Rock, El-P, MF DOOM)
