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.

One of most played Summer '22 albums in my car... Normally I don't like the Roy Orbison / Elvis Presley sound, but this album worked for me for some reason.

100% with you. Not a country guy, not into Elvis. Enjoy Johnny Cash, but would never really throw him on. But for some reason OP just resonates.

His voice is insane and he's really learning how to harness it. He's a great song writer and I enjoy watching interviews and such with him. Very passionate artist.

I know he canceled a lot of shows to check his mental health and I hope he recovers. Seems like a great dude.

Saw him live last year, he's amazing. Absolutely loved him and Bria Salmena his bandmate.

Jealous!!! He's come around a few times but the stars just haven't aligned for me. Would love to see him live one day though.
