It's gone bad, throw it out!

My wife went to a Spin Doctors concert in the 90s and I still make fun of her about it. (Although I kind of like Two Princes.)

What's funny is I like 90s music a lot more than I did when I was in high school and trying to be too cool for it.

I can actually admit that Nirvana was an amazing band all these years later.

So nothing. 80s ska is fucking awesome and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

That's the best first I've ever heard. My first tape was Cruisin' Classics, which was free with a tank of gas from Shell. Thanks mom!

My dad basically hated any music post about 1950 except for The Beatles (don't ask me why The Beatles), so I was a late bloomer to rock albums. I think I was 12 when the Weird Al album came out.

Nah, I still fuck with Skinny Puppy and Bauhaus.

I honestly don't know what point you're making here.

You don't think he's funny, and that makes you cringe? Okay.

Bad music exists all the time, but the Era that gave snoop dog, eminem, system of a down,, placebo, oasis, Linkin park, Nelly, rammstein, U2, Radiohead, and Green Day will reign Supreme.

Tastes are subjective and you're in here questioning the validity of my taste. Perhaps it is you who needs to take a step back, assess your stance, and fuck off.

Funny thing, back in high school I managed to buy some albums on Google's Play Store for 0 Monies. I'm talking big names, like Charlie Puth, Major Lazer, Galantis, Anitta, Flo Rida, Jason Derulo, maybe more. All for free, just owned it. Not streaming, per se. And I used to keep coming back, check if any new freebies had dropped. I reckon I once downloaded them in more recent times, but have probably lost them in poor last-minute 'backup and reinstall' OS issues. I might have deleted the files from Google, as I grew away from loving Google (as I did back then) to disliking them a tad (privacy reasons, likely), but I rather believe they got rid of something I purchased (albeit for no moneys) some time after discontinuing Google Play Music. These albums, released circa 2015, were the ones I had on repeat back then. Nine Track Mind, Peace Is The Mission : Extended (not to be confused with "Peace Is The Mission (Extended)", at least on Spotify), Pharmacy, Bang, My House, Everything Is 4, among others. Also got some singles, like Californication and a Linkin Park song (Numb, maybe?), and a Charlie Puth song before the album so I had it repeat on my collection

One of the wonderful things about being a Gen X'er. Music from my high school years is still fucking awesome.

Man, these songs are crawling in my skin, these wounds, they will not heal.

I was bored and looking for something to do on the weekend, and found cheap tickets to see Sheryl Crow and Pink (headlining) live. Honestly one of the best shows I've even seen. The "don't give a fuck" vibe mixed with the professionalism of a 30 year career, just all the energy I wanted.

They both have newer albums, but I've had their high-school bangers on a lot lately.
