Quote:You got: New Wave

New wave is sorta hard to define – it’s basically a catch-all for all sorts of music that was influenced by the first wave of punk, but wasn’t necessarily punk itself: Blondie, Talking Heads, Devo, Elvis Costello, New Order, The Smiths, The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, etc, etc. The main thing is that while punk was mostly about provocation, aggression, and tribalism, new wave was about subverting the mainstream with stylish, unapologetically individualistic pop music.

I don't know that "subverting the mainstream with stylish, unapologetically individualistic pop music" was really what new wave was about, but never mind.

Fauxpas
yep))))))
You got: Laurel Canyon in the Late ’60s/Early ’70s
Joni Mitchell, Crosby Stills and Nash, Carole King, The Eagles, The Byrds, Love, and many other singer-songwriters all converged in the idyllic Laurel Canyon region of Los Angeles in the late ’60s and early ’70s to basically live the hippy dream. The vibe of the scene was very relaxed, and the music was mostly low-key and introspective. It’s basically the one time in pop culture when the coolest thing you could be was an introverted homebody who wanted to be close to nature.
You got: 70's Rock, and this lovely gif[t]

Quote:You got: Grunge
The grunge era was the one time where it was totally mainstream to be a dirty, miserable person in worn-out boots and old flannel shirts. There’s never been a better era for epic, angst-ridden rock music, and it’s the only time when it was possible to witness icons like Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley in action before their untimely deaths. Just try to avoid heroin, OK?

Seems like selection of 'Pattern' decides the outcome.

90s rap
done

I got 60's rock:

[h=2]Rock in the ’60s was a constantly evolving thing, with wildly inventive artists like The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, and The Who basically making up rock culture as they went along. This is an extremely earnest and progressive period too, with most of the counterculture defined by hippie ideals.[/h]
