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! 🎶

How could I forget about G.L.O.S.S! The Hirs Collective shreds too if you haven’t heard of them, saw them in a shitty basement in the PNW 6 or 7 years ago.

I’ve been to backyards and beer factories but never a basement gig. That still sounds awesome to me.!

Yeah they had a wall of sound and I didn’t wear earplugs like a chump. I definitely did myself some permanent hearing damage at that show lol

Saw them live a couple times and they fucking killed it each time. Shame they didn't stay together
