I love "Alternative rock."Bullsh*t term, but whatevs. Gotta find the right mix of grittiness, or imperfection so it doesn't just sound like pop punk, but those hooks and attitudes can be great.

It actually had its utility when the Seattle scene hit - when you heard a station played "alternative rock" you knew it wasn't going to be Paula Abdul or Led Zeppelin.
I would say indie rock aint so bad...but I don't know what that even is anymore. The best we had was any alt rock type band that were not on a major label... but now many are?

I do too, but mostly the older alternative/grunge stuff.
