"You know you're getting old when you realize [album X] is [Y] years old" thread

Just realized that UNKLE's Psyence Fiction will be 15 years old this year, which made me say, "oh shit" and check the dates on Massive Attack's first two albums, which were FUCKING 1991 for Blue Lines and next year for Protection. 

So, both of Massive Attack's first two albums are basically 20 years old, and Psyence Fiction is 15.  FUCK THIS GAY EARTH, ETC ETC.  I'm old.

I know right.  Backstreet's Back is 16 years old.  I can still remember standing in line to get the CD

GET OFF MY LAWN, KIDS

My girlfriend was born in 1993.  That freaks me out sometimes.

[Eric P]

for a few years i used to annoy my friends by listing albums which had come out 5, 10, 15 and 20 years previous every new year just to make them feel old.

[Phoenix Dark]

Psyence Fiction is such a great fucking album

[Human Snorenado]

Also, listening to Guns Blazing today has reminded me that Kool G Rap is, in fact, the shit.

[Phoenix Dark]

not many people could effectively rap over that

I had a moment like this the other day when a coworker's kid was playing Mario 64 at the office...

Cowoker: This came out in 1996 I think.

Me: Yeah, it's 17 years old.

...

Oh my god this is 17 years old.

Super Mario 64 is old enough to drink illegally and be the cause of a statutory rape case.

Ah, I had NINs performance at Lollapalooza streaming in the background last night while I was playing PSO2 and while they were playing Closer I went oh hey this song is 19 years old. Then they played Wish which is from 21 years ago, and then I realized that the music of my youth is older than some of my guildmates.

Yeah, NIN is the one comparison that always does it for me, because The Downward Spiral is the sound of angry youthful rebellion, AND next year it will be 20-years-old.

that means The Downward Spiral is now too old to unironically listen to itself

Weezer Blue album is 19 years old

OK Computer is 16 years old

The Holy Bible is 19 years old. Richey Edwards has been missing for over 18 years now.
