The 80's probably weren't worse then any other age, its just too close. The 70's weren't any better, especially the second half, but its more distant. Personally, I thank the 80's for what it gave birth: The early-mid 90's, whcih had some amazing music (I even include stuff like The Joshua Tree here, from '87, which is more into the 90's then many later albums). Its offtopic, but there was a certain, post-80's, pre-indie electro-acoustic music which I just adore, with songs like Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something or the Friends title track. (is there a name for this genre, by the way??)
