Honest pretty weird thinking about WWII and my birth year being as far apart as my birth year and the present. WWII was always something that happened a long, long time ago and now I'm like "Well shit, the 80s now happened a long, long time ago".
In my early-mid 20s I was pretty big into these obscure R&B compilations put out by the Numero Group label and, like, 60s-70s soul and R&B singers that had revived careers (e.g. Sharon Jones, Lee Fields).
Now I'm just thinking of one of my kid's future gen alpha friends being really into Seapunk or something and that idea is hilarious.
:grillman: "These dumb kids today don't recognize my references to music that was released just shy of 70 years ago. They're so out of touch."
This is getting very close to the beetles

If we were to use the same time frames to define "classic rock" as when I was growing up, Death Cab would be included in that genre lol.
A band from 26 years ago is old
Not sure if it's really a sliding scale. We still call the era of art from 1850 to 1950 "modern".
'classical' music fans be like this, only the music is 300 years old
