I’m in my 40s, and last time when I was at McD I saw some 20-somethings sitting at their table, looking at the liner notes of an AC/DC CD they had no doubt grabbed from the second hand store one block over.
I almost went over to say “oh wow, am I ever happy to see you kids enjoy classical music, eh?” but I didn’t, because this is Finland and talking to random people at McD is considered weird, of course.
blink-182 is dadrock now. has been for a few years actually
Nobody likes you when you’re 53.
blink 182 has always been dad rock lmao.
Converge is Dad rock. Fucking Dillinger Escape Plan is too. Thank God our Dad rock isn’t just yacht rock, that shit blows.

90s? what about 00s? It’s been 26 years since the turn of the century.
When did Vampire Weekend become “classic rock.”
When it was formed
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.
Anyone listening to 90s music today will miss out on an important element that is lost today: the CD skips.
Had to look up CD skips to be sure we were thinking of the same thing. Pretty sure you can emulate that using a similar setup to what I have: a portable LG USB disc drive and VLC. IDK if this is a me issue specifically, but VLC loves to cause the first few seconds of any song on CD to skip when using that portable disk drive of mine.
They were playing Viva La Vida in the grocery store. I’m like… Okay, grocery store, I get you’re trying to “cater to my demographic” since we’re the “new olds” who now regularly shop for produce, but who the fuck thought Viva La Vida was a good “millennial shopper” music choice for picking out produce and scrutinizing cereal boxes? I died inside. Sacrilegious.
That was at a thrift store today and they were playing Nirvana. I didn’t mind that.
Just a reminder that Super Mario Brothers was released closer to World War II than to today.
I, for one, like my gray hair. I feel wise.
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’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!
My local oldies station was playing them and nirvana and pearl jam and similar bands in the late 90s. It was weird, like this song is only 5 years old, why is it an oldie? But since i was a teenager, it qas great for me.
rhcp, cringe rock or rape rock?
Yeah, Anthony’s bio was hard to read as a fan.
when the local club has throwback night and it’s just 2000s music
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.
Lmao, I once had a group of students excitedly tell me about this retro band they found, “the backstreet boys”. I wasn’t even 30.
Cause you are young!
Heartache to heartache you stand.
Pokemon Red for Gameboy is technically a vintage videogame now.
