Replying to Music of Our Generation

So, (with a few exceptions), the 80's were total crap, the 90's were pretty drab, and now every band sounds exactly like Nickelback, or worse. Not to mention, any band that has made it to the top has usually been one hit, and then dissappeared. So what went wrong? Why do we lack bands that are extremely talented with harmonies and melodies and sick guitar riffs or meaning and soul? Such as Allman Brothers Band, Eagles, Stevie Ray, Dire Straights etc.
I think the sound from the 70's on has been pretty dry, like Nirvana, Green Day, Nickelback, to name a few. Don't get me wrong, I like those bands, but I also like good music. So what are your thoughts? Other than 'Ur a loser' or 'RAP 4 LIFE JIGGA' or some stupid remark. Does anyone agree with me who actually knows a thing or two about music?

Also, list some one hit wonders from these decades, it's probably the only time you'll hear their names again.
