blink-182 is dadrock now. has been for a few years actually

I mean, yeah, it's retro music now. And in my opinion is best played on a retro Sony Discman with appropriate retro headphones. I mean, how else can I best enjoy my For Squirrels CD or Blues Traveler or Local H or... you get the point!

Only problem is the fact my discman is a battery hog.

I once heard two tweens in line at target talking and one said what’s your guilty music pleasure?? And she said “ don’t laugh at me but I like matchbox 20 they’re really old my dad likes them “ LMAO I died inside

I, for one, like my gray hair. I feel wise.

Pokemon Red for Gameboy is technically a vintage videogame now.

She's breakdancing, as is tradition

Cause you are young!

I've accepted hearing rhcp on the classic rock radio station. You can be old, it's ok. You can't fight time, but you can damn sure remain immature AF!

when the local club has throwback night and it's just 2000s music

When did Vampire Weekend become "classic rock."

I'm 2023 I turned on the radio for the first time in years and the DJ says "now for a throwback song, Thrift Shop by Macklemore" and that made me (1) feel old because that song came out while I was in college, and (2) realize the song was over 10 years old at that point.

Hell, I'm just glad some of the 90's stuff managed to make it to that status.

Smells Like Teen Spirit is 35 years old. It's was incredibly hot at the time, but it felt like a gibberish song. I figured by the time I hit my 50's/60's it would just have been looked at as some crazy bullshit.

Always remember: talking about 90's grunge bands today is the same as talking about the early Beatles in 1996 💀

They just need to stop playing Alice in Chains in the grocery store.

I'm 40 and I also do now, just to piss off my peers that turned into their parents, and to remind myself to keep exploring new music so that I don't become one of these people that get stuck in time and unable to relate to newer generations.

I like '90s music (it's my childhood decade) but I also dislike people who act like things "back in their day" are objectively the best, because I heard all that shit before from old people when I was a kid.

Some songs just are classics the second they are released

When I was a kid in the 70s, Grease was huge, glamorizing 1950s "oldies" music like it was from some long-ago era. That's only 20 years. That's like glamorizing music from 2006 today. The 90s are definitely "classic rock" now. Trippy.

My daughter has a vintage clothing store.

Early 2000s is considered vintage.

Just pull the life support plug now please.

"My dad listens to that stuff"

Such savagery

No, early 2000s are the classics

Not a teenager. If you've kept up at all on music and listened to the stuff we did in the 90s, yeah it holds up great, but holy shit does a lot of it sound old in comparison. Like bowling for soup's 1985 released in 2005 was only 20 years, but it has been 21 years since 2005. Time goes on, the pile of backlog gets taller.

Watch, read, listen, do as much as you can in this life you have, it's the only one you get. Even if you're religious and believe in an afterlife... You don't know you're right, you have to take it on faith. So hedge a little bit and live your damn life like there's no afterlife.

...That doesn't mean fucking dead deer, though.

Red Hot Chili Peppers, the band, has existed for 44 years.

I'm reminded of this every time I spot Flea in Back to The Future (Needles), which itself is 41 years old.

That was me watching that Apple TV show Invasion. In the first episode, a kid has headphones on and someone asks what he’s listening to. He says something like “oh just some classic music”… and it’s Green Day..

But then I remember Dookie came out over 30 years ago and I cry again lol

I don’t mind because I see more kids wearing clothes with “classic” bands like Sublime and Soundgarden and Nirvana and Biggie than bands that were “classics” when I was in high school

People thought I was weird for liking Zeppelin in the 90s.

What do you expect, listening to music from the previous century?

I was there when Siamese Dream was released. I was there, man.
