(EDIT: Actually, it's come back to me now. Yes, the band known as Live put out an album before Mental Jewelry, but it was under their previous name, Public Affection, which is why I tend to think of Throwing Copper as their second album not their third.)For me, I think – perhaps because I had much older siblings and was something of a precocious child as a result – stuff imprinted on me as much in my childhood if not more so than in my teens.My siblings were teens in the 80s and find a lot of 80s stuff cringey now. I was a teen in the 90s and while Weezer is still my favorite band, I find a lot of 90s music cringey. I think I probably prefer most music that came before or has come after the 90s.I also grew up watching the OG Star Wars movies as a kid and love them, whereas I saw The Phantom Menace as an older teen and hated it so much that I didn’t bother seeing the other two until they were on free-to-air TV years later. (I like Ep III the most, and it’s the only one of the prequels I have on DVD.)I like a lot of modern music and think it’s better than stuff from the 80s and 90s. I also tend to prefer modern movie / TV production values and find it harder to go back and watch older things now.As usual, it seems I’m an outlier in the EN World community.</blockquote>
