Favorite Album (1960's) - The Doors (1967)
Favorite Band/Artist (1960's) - The Doors

Favorite Album (1970's) - Black Sabbath "We Sold Our Souls For Rock and Roll" (I don't know if it counts since its basically a greatest hits but its the first sabbath album I ever knew so its my pick here)
Favorite Band/Artist (1970's) - Black Sabbath but recent years have seen huge gains in my mind by Lynrd Skynrd as I've come to appreciate the musicianship in that band.

Favorite Album (1980's) - Metallica "Kill 'em All" (1983)
Favorite Band/Artist (1980's) - Metallica

Favorite Album (1990's) - Rage Against the Machine "Rage Against the Machine" (1992)
Favorite Band (1990's) - Tool with special mention to Social Distortion (even though they've been around since the late 70's I discovered them in the 90's with most of the world so I've listed them as such)

Favorite Album (2001-2005) - Tool "Lateralus" (2001)
Favorite Album of 2006 - Tool "10,000 Days"

Favorite Musical Decade - 1990's (While I listed to more hours of music in a day in the 80s the 90s were when I started expanding my horizons and discovering there was more to music than songs at 300+ bpm.
Favorite Band (from that decade, not already listed) - Nine Inch Nails
Song the epitomizes your feelings on that decade - This is hard to really nail down. For now I'll go with RAtM's "Killing in the Name" due to a single repeated line that summed up my feelings at that time. Unlike a lot of people who are angry teens I was a pretty mild teen and turned into an angry 20 something.
