It's a nostalgic feeling, it had good parts and bad parts like any other era. If you were a teenager at that time you probably swear it produced the best ever music. The fall of the soviet union and the end of the cold war gave people hope the new millennium approaching will be a peaceful different one.
And then the wars in the Gulf, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Somalia, Congo, Iraq, Yemen, Armenia, Sri Lanka, Ethiopia, Kosovo and others show us we're still in the same shitty world.
I was a teenager back then and I did not think it produced the best music. But I was not mainstream, I hated being like everyone else, as if we were robots. I made a point of going against the stream regarding aesthetics, religion and cultural stuff. I hate uniforms to this day. I don’t get the young these days dressing the same as the others. Is it an education thing? I mean, as a teenager you are looking for yourself, trying stuff to see what you like. Why would you just copy what everyone does?!
