We grew up in a boomer pop culture dictatorship where the importance of the music that they liked when they were young was super overblown, the Beatles being the quintessential example. I respect the Beatles and their music, but this idea that they're so vastly important beyond anyone else is I think just more boomer cultural supremacy. As a kid the boomer music I gravitated towards was Pink Floyd and the Beach Boys, and to this day I'm still 100 times more likely to listen to the latter two than the Beatles.

My parents were also incredibly disrespectful towards any music that I liked and never showed any interest in anything made after the mid-1970s, aside from dull adult contemporary background music, a posture I always found to be myopic and sort of indicative of how self-indulgent they were about their youth.
