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! 🎶

Whatever happened to Poe? I remember for like 10+ years she said her label blocked her from releasing any new music but nothing ever came

Her record label merged with another and her contract got cancelled. Then a shitty lawyer fucked her over and she wasn't legally able to release music under her name for years. Really awful.

Also, fun fact, she helped her brother Mark Danielewski edit and promote the cult classic avant garde novel House of Leaves.

That’s a really good TIL. That’s a bit of a legendary book.
