The good old Alternative music we use to all love still exist, but the stuff that imitates it has overshadowed it.
And because the imitations have been getting most of the air time and MTV recognition, The true thing is now more unpopular.
Still some good original alternative groups and artist like Garbage, Lenny Kravitz, and I guess Collective SOul still get recognition.
Try going to a huge music store like Hastings. They have alot of the GOOD and True alternative artist in stock (at least the one near where I live does)
Alternative doesn't .
In fact I'm starting to loose interest in most of the music I Like, like Rap, R&B and plane Rock due to the monotomy of the genres and lack of originality among the newcomers.
Alternative seems to be the only music genre in which you can find original songs, with original themes.
