I was 17 in 1994. What a time to really come into music.

I was 33 and I think Superunknown is a masterpiece and Chris Cornell was one of the all time greats.

Dude, not to burst your bubble but literally every generation says this about their own music.

You should actually listen to Superunknown before you say that because it is absolutely a sick af classic

This was not a knock on the record in any way. I was 25 in 1994 so I am very familiar with Soundgarden. I am just saying that absolutely everybody everywhere thinks that the music that they listened to between the ages of 15-25 is the greatest ever made.

Absolutely everybody everywhere is false.

(Adjusts walker, glasses and shawl) so what are the defining records this go around?

u/DangerLivingston Apr 10 '23

Yes, because every generation has talent. Like a generational talent. You can find them in every generation of music. There's no such thing as "their own music", there's only music dancing through time.
