Quite.
Say, heard of these Nirvana fellows? They seem rather rad.

Kicker of Elves:
No doubt you do.
For me, Debaser is ultimately associated with 1989. That's the year I was born, and apparently, my grandmother was watching Un Chien Andalou that very same day.
And, of course, Doolittle actually came out in that year.  I can rarely mentally separate a song and the album it appears on.
In a related fashion, I have a distinct emotional attachment to each Pixies record, the best song on that record, and the year it came out. 1988 belongs to Surfer Rosa and "Gigantic". 1989 belongs to Doolittle and "Debaser" (COP/I've Been Tired, Bossanova/Dig for Fire, Trompe Le Monde/UMass in their respective years).
Plus, I enjoy the Nirvana reference more than, say, 'you lot heard of that new Public Enemy album with the outlandishly long title?' or any other throwback to the music of '88.

Kicker of Elves:
Interesting. I could certainly see how one could tire of Nirvana (frankly, Unplugged is the only album of theirs I still reguarly listen to), and PE approaches timelessness far more than do most rap artists.
But I will never tire of the Pixies. Poor you.
