I hadn’t listened in Dookie in a very long time. Then my kid and I were talking about music and she wanted to know what kinds of music I streamed back in high school. :) That turned into a talk about CDs and led into listening to Dookie with my eight year old. The album has aged very well. As an adult, I find that different songs are more appealing now than they were as a teen and in other cases, age has warped the meaning of the songs. But as an album, it stands up really well. There are some other well known albums from the nineties that really haven’t stood up as well. I’d recommend another listen! Though, “I declare I don’t care no more.” :)

As someone who was a teen about ten years ago I can confess it was still very relevant and I even got its CD (though honestly I listened to it mostly on my iPod Touch)

  I'm 30 now, there's nothing I wanted more than the iPod Touch but I think I made the sales pitch to my parents too hard because I was very excited it had a web browser. I grew up without even basic cable but I did eventually get an iPod classic which I still miss having. I think it eventually met it's fate in the washing machine.

  I will say I saw them in concert accidentally once (attending for the headliner, I had no idea they were also playing). I had no real interest in them musically, no hate or anything just no real interest, but wow. They were incredibly good performers compared to the 30 or so other rock bands I'd seen in my youth, easily top 3 performance wise. It really changed my view on the impact a live performance can have on your perceptions of a band and its music.

  100 gecs is more or less a Limp Bizkit tribute band IMO.
