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! 🎢

Just curious, cause I tried to find your sources, but A Giant Dogs bite isnt on metacritic. How'd you source this? A couple people in that band are acquaintances of mine, and I want to congratulate them, but I kinda wanna know what's up first.

[–] ren 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

here you go - Metacritic may or may not have compiled the reviews, but it was on their upcoming release list for today: https://www.metacritic.com/browse/albums/release-date/coming-soon/date

[–] Baahb 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And you just happen to be looking forward to this particular release? Mind saying where you're from? I think Sabrina would get a kick out of it

[–] ren 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I’m not sure I understand. I just shared the lists of releases for this week. These aren’t necessarily albums I’m into, just the list of what’s out for yall to review and see if there’s anything of interest

@ren @Baahb I too did my research, and checked with my dear friend Alice Cooper, and we have confirmed that Ren is a much better human than we are to entertain such nonsense.
