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! 🎶

DAY 14 of the 30 Day Song Challenge, alternative music styles!

Who doesn't love a cover song??? Especially when it's BETTER than the original?

This one should be real good today - time to fire up the Spotify! Can not WAIT to see what y'all got. The hard part is picking just one or two!

UPDATE - Started a Youtube Playlist of your picks!!

Each day I’ll post the challenge and you share some of your favorite alternative & indie songs that meet the challenge!

While this may be a bit out of left field for most, I post this to commemorate the reaction that Goober and the Boys got from my friends and I the first time we heard it. We were loving the show already, but we all just burst out laughing, hooting and singing along when the boys started “Whole Lotta Love” by Led Zeppelin. Dan and the boys always put on an awesome show.
