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!

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 do the 30 Day Song Challenge, alternative music styles! Each day I'll post the challenge and you share some of your favorite songs that meet the challenge!
LET'S GO!
Blackstar - David Bowie
Blue in Green - Miles Davis
Pink Moon - Nick Drake
Pink + white - Frank Ocean
Yellow Ledbetter - Pearl Jam
Tangled up in Blue - Bob Dylan
Sorry if these aren't "alternative" still trying to figure out what that really means but I'm not sure I'd call any of these inside the modern mainsteam.
Pink moon, pink and white, and yellow Ledbetter are all songs I love on various playlists of mine. I'll have to give the other songs you suggested a listen!
