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.

'Cut Dead' by Jesus & Mary Chain

Album: Psychocandy
Released: 1985
Theme: unclassified

Psychocandy was the band's debut album and is the only album I really know but it has plenty of good tunes.

I remember going to see at 688 in Atlanta but my crappy fake ID didn't work so I sat in the car while all my friends enjoyed the show.

The album is definitely the most popular but this song wasn't. It's slow and special and I like it.
