Alternative Nation : The Fediverse's largest alternative and indie music community! All things alternative music, from 80s college rock to today's indie and all the amazing alternative music in between. Welcome home, music nerds!

Some of y'all may remember MTV's Alternative Nation or 120 Minutes, awesome programs & incredible ways to discover #music back in the 80s & 90s...

Welcome, to the Fediverse edition!

🎡🎧🎢

Subscribe, share, & chat!

Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!

See this post on recs on how to post!

The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

🎡 Let's get lost in the Fediverse's record store together! 🎢

Love this song.

This song, 'Danger! High Voltage', and a few others are so goddamn amazing, yet most of their songs are pretty subpar, they're just really inconsistent. I can't even understand how it's the same group sometimes. I want to love them, but there's just not enough there.

Amazing band. Let's hope they will reupload their music videos on better quality somewhere in the future, because al of them are batshit crazy and need to be seen.

Start downloading all the videos that you like from youtube. Youtube seems to be enshittifying. Soon you will need to drink a verication cola to watch any vids.

There are a few better quality versions on Vimeo. Same thing for Weird Al.

I didn't know, thank you for the hint!

I accidentally saw them live at a bar in Memphis. I had never heard of them or any of their songs. I don't remember how good the show was, but I definitely remember it being very high energy.

I visited Memphis once. I don’t remember much either. 10/10 would recommend.
