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.

Today's classic rock stations play music that was on alternative stations in the 90's. Yes, alternative stations in the 90's played Belly. But their music has been forgotten because now it isn't played.

Oh, I see. I don't listen to the radio now but that makes sense. They're all about sales numbers.

Which is weird because I'd listen to it more if they played the same music they played in the 90's.
