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.

Big Thief have crossed my radar but I havenā€™t taken a really good listen, even though apparently Iā€™ve listened to about 30 of their songs before. I intend to explore more of their back catalogue.

Big Thief are so good. Check out the song Simulation Swarm from their last album, too

They have a song exploder episode on the song Cattails. Also Adrianne Lenker's solo stuff is worth giving a listen

I haven't stopped listening to Big Thief since "U.F.O.F.". I hope they release at least 5 more LPs. One of the few acts today I have full trust in delivering future masterworks of art.
