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.

Surrogate has been one of my favorite bands for close to 15 years now. I just noticed that they have less than 1k monthly listeners on Spotify and figured I would get up on my soapbox to share them here.

If you want to get a sense of their range, here are a few songs I would recommend as a primer:

Post-Heroic (from Post-Heroic)

Stay Out of the Sun (from Love Is For The Rich)

State of Jefferson (from Popular Mechanics)

The Devil Gets What He Wants Sometimes (from Popular Mechanics)

Battleground, Washington (from Post-Heroic)
