My formative years were spent in the 80's with foundational bands like New Order, Depeche Mode, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Cure, and Jane's Addiction. Even though the 80's was the pioneer decade for the alternative genre, this music transcended into the 90's and to some cool tunes today which could be classified as alternative. Hopefully, this site will bring back some good memories and introduce some things you haven't heard before.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Enjoy.

'Yin and Yang (The Flowerpot Man)' by Love and Rockets

Album: Express
Released: 1986
Theme: deep alternative

A fitting song for today since it's what the train engineer listens to as the Polar Express chugs along the snowy tundra on the way to North Pole town. Feel the rhythm . . .
