TIMTOWTDI, of course. A slightly different approach, still with Time::Piece but adding a month at a go. It's shorter and (to me) a little clearer.
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Time::Piece '1.32';
my $date = localtime->add_years (-4)->truncate (to => 'year');
my $end_date = localtime;
while ($date <= $end_date) {
print "$date\n";
$date = $date->add_months (1);
}
There's nothing wrong with your method AFAICS.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
