Another group that I want to say that the entire, Super Mega Fantastic, album is worth a listen.
And their follow up, Wasa Tusa, is a great chill out album

Here is one I was recently exposed through from Henry Rollins show on KCRW.
A cover of a Lavern Baker song.
The Casual Dot
Boot Liquor was the station that introduced me to groups like The Devil Makes Three. I haven’t listened in a few years, but it was an oasis of non-bro country back in the day.
One I have listened to off and on for nearly 20 years now is Radio Paradise.
It’s not an exclusively Alternative station, but a fairly wide ranging mix of classics, b-sides, world, electronic, etc. All fairly low-key but interesting.
They introduced me to so many bands over the years. And it is rare to not hear something I fall in love with any time I turn them on.
That’s pretty awesome. I like that you’ve kept the tradition up for your anniversaries too.
I am a music obsessive. But to be honest my choices might make my wife’s ears bleed. At least she is cool with me blaring music through the house every chance I get.
I remember people using new wave mostly when referring to the bands of the time that didn’t fit into the standard genres. But, I was a kid and growing up way out in the middle of nowhere. Which means there was a lot I simply didn’t know at the time. Now I am older, grayer, and still don’t know much of anything.
Definitely aging myself.
I don’t even recall the genre alternative being used at the time. This I consider closest to what became considered alternative from my pre-teen years.
La Costa Brava by Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. This song and album is in rotation no matter what else I happen to be listening to.
The only thing I really can say is Manchin is a better option than the Republican that would most likely replace him. Kind of like how it is preferable to be stabbed through the hand over being stabbed in the face.
