'dookie' from green day turns 20, and the 1990s sucked
Dookie was released on 1 February 1994, so yes, that means the album is officially 20 years old...
...but that doesn't mean it was anything special, because it wasn't. The album was nothing but 1970s "pop punk" wrapped in a 1990s flavor. This is not to say the album was bad, because it wasn't. It is, just like I said, not anything special.
The 1990s for the most part sucked. I know because I lived through it.
From a musician's point of view, there is one very important thing to know about the 90s. It was the last decade of The Old World way of "making it" as a musician.
Those who have been following me a while know I've been through a few guitars since 2010. Quite a few of them, actually.
There are a lot of kids across the world who got a guitar as a present for Christmas, many with the dreams of being the next big rock star.
