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...

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.

I really need to listen to more Ratatat. I liked ā€œClassicsā€ but havenā€™t gotten around to listening to the rest of their discography yet.

I really like LP3 and LP4. It's probably got more to do with nostalgia from my college days when they were new, but those two albums really feel like peak Ratatat to me.

The first time I heard anything by Ratatat, I was driving past a road named "Ararat Rd." It's a dumb connection to make, but it still makes me chuckle.

Did you see the same black cat twice as well?

All hail. I was very, very young to this.

Ratatat and Boxxie. Trolls! Trolls! I don't even know the title of the song.
