I agree totally, the bands post-95 ("big" bands that is), just haven't proved themselves. There are few exceptions, Incubus, DMB, Radiohead,Green Day, whether you like them or not, they have a bit of history and are not really post-95 technically,but they keep producing music and hitting the charts strongly. Some true post-95, just haven't enough material yet to judge if they "have it" for the long haul. We'll have to see some "sophmore" efforts first e.g Linkin PArk, Puddle of Mudd, System of a Down, just to name a few. Personally, I don't expect much from these guys.
Exactly Zen. They need time, unfortunately lots of it given the way it seems to take most bands 2-3 years to follow up their debut these days.
I'm definately not expecting much from any of the above bands, except maybe Puddle of Mudd. I don't like them, but they're the kind of mainstream rock band I can picture being around 5 years from now.
One band I haven't seen mentioned here actually is Tool. Don't know if they're post-1995, but I sure like em'!
