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...

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.

Have you listened to Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino front to back? It's a great story to listen to that flows super well with a ton of underlying tones.

Tranquility Base... & The Car are best listened to all the way through. The songs are good, but somehow better with the whole album around them.

Yeah it's a full experience, and that's how it was meant to be listened to. At least someone gets it.
