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.

'Something To Do' by Depeche Mode

Album: Some Great Reward
Released: 1984
Theme: quintessential 80's

DM is a core band for the alternative genre. 'Something To Do' is the opening track on this album and is a great way to introduce the band on SoDA. Lots more to come from DM.
