This sounds like the Seinfeld effect.

The things that were revolutionary at the time have been so copied and are now so commonplace that they seem utterly mundane.

You can’t understand Pet Sounds as a person in 2022 who has lived their whole life in the world that Pet Sounds created. You have to be the person in 1966 who never heard anything like it before.
