This is already better than all of those 120 Minutes threads. Good work user.

I feel personally attacked by these lists, this is unironically all I listen too every day, every week.

Cherubs - Heroin Man

based
bunch of new albums floating around (flylo, tyler, carly, national) but I'm probably gonna listen to this shit instead
i'm real close to becoming a wrong-generationer, born '96 but my favorite albums are consistently 90's records

Save yourself from becoming this, my guy.

i hope i'm self-aware enough not to believe this shit. i do often wonder about a pre-smartphone world, but i think nostalgia is ultimately more dangerous than helpful if we can't extract why we liked [older thing] from our rosy feelings about it. Yea Forums is having a similar reckoning with their SOUL vs SOULLESS threads.

i wonder how people are going to idolize this decade - people are already starting to come back around to the 2000s aesthetic, i wonder what people will look back on in the 2010s
or even how period pieces about this decade will be done by people younger than us who never lived through it

Go R'chas!
Go LOAF!

Well, it's a cycle. Each generation is gonna hate the previous. You'd think by now, people would stop beating the dead horses known as Twiight and Justin Bieber, but no, they still go.
