Stylistically, it feels like a switch went off in 1997 and everything changed suddenly.
Um, what?The switch didn't go off until 9/11. Before that the late '90s and first sliver of the early '00s was a big party. Everything after went downhill fast, and now we're in shit.
>>18296389I didn't say it was a bad switch, just that it was a switch
>>18296394There wasn't, though. '97 is almost identical to '96 and there's tons of crossover.
The mid 90s ended and the late 90s started.
