: : 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.
: What do you consider "true" alternative? And how can you define its differences from the "fake" alternative?
