There’s still great stuff out there. It’s just not mainstream, so it’s not gonna fall into our laps - we have to do the legwork and shuffle through the muck if we want more.
Personally, I made the conscious choice to do so last year and it’s been pretty rewarding.
Sure thing! Fwiw, I found most of those just digging through the bandcamp discover page. gglum I heard on KEXP, a great indie radio station based in Seattle who do internet broadcasts. Lots of good stuff coming from them.
Sigh, I miss the Alternative Music of the 90s and 2000s.

Any recommendations to check out?
My favs from last year include:
Cheap Grills by Sincere Engineer (a great energetic, alt rock garage band vibe)
The Garden Dream by gglum (a moody alt rock album that would’ve fit perfectly on the Juno soundtrack)
Spiritual Cramps by Spiritual Cramps (a sound that feels simultaneously The Cure-ish, The Clash-ish, and The Ramones-ish)
Unicorn by Gunship (not an “unknown” band, but this album slaps if you enjoy synthwave at all)
Right on, that all sounds like my jam. Thanks for the tip!

Alt music was still banging in the 2013 when i graduated high school. Still some great stuff out there if you lnow where to look.
