I'm not seeing really any discussion about this type of music, so i figured I'd start one. It's such a large genre encompassing some types of rap, electro-rock, etc etc etc, so theres gotta be some good bands ive never heard of

Konrad Danke / C / 340 TPE / Texas / Maine / Czech
S54 Draft Class // Czech Republic


John Heimer-Schmidt // Former Whaler GM // Retired
The Greatest Shitstirrer of All Time


thanks @suavemente !

False. Alt-J is pretty damn big.


But they are also amazing.

Toadies - Possum Kingdom
Spacehog - In the Meantime
Southern Culture on the Skids - Camel
Toad the Wet Sprocket - Fall Down
Soundgarden - Pretty Noose
Butthole Surfers - Pepper
Smashing Pumpkins - 1979

Actually, here. Instead of spending all day on this, just look at this list of amazing alt-rock songs from 1996:
