I know many here at the UMA, listen to different genres of music. Some of you listen to alternative bands. Since I couldn't list all the sub-genres of: Metal, Punk, Goth and so on. I would like to see some of your favorite alternative
bands. I will start.

Great choice, Hepcat. I have seen the Vibrators twice. They are so entertaining to watch.

Good list, but I wouldn't actually call any of those artists "alternative".

The Dead Boys from Cleveland were among my very favourite punk bands.
Dead Boys - Sonic Reducer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdu3EU6sbng#)
I saw them up close and personal performing live at the New Yorker Cinema on Yonge Street in 1977. I'm not sure I'm entirely over the experience even now.

Well, I guess that the only alt bands that I listen to would be the Nine Inch Nails and Machines of Loving Grace. The latter broke up several years ago, much to my dismay.

All good and great bands. But.......this thread is geared towards alternative music. When I posted this thread, I almost
had reservations about including, Metal. I actually wanted to see how many Punk, Goth and Alternative fans there are at the good old UMA. Then I thought, what about Glam, Ska,.Rockabilly and so-on? Maybe the next thread, the question will be.......Who's you favorite classic country singer? Mine would be Buck Owens and Johnny Cash. : )

Another excellent choice, Hepcat. Although I have never witnessed the power of the Dead Boys,.I have seen
Cheetah Chrome perform Dead Boys' songs. The Dead Boys were the epitome of PUNK ROCK. I wish more
People knew about their amazing music and presence. Very underrated.

I was born and raised in NYC .. since moved. There are or I should say were two Rockabilly bands called the Razorbacks. One band is in the tri-state area and is still active, the other one was a Canadian band which put out two albums and toured Europe as well as North America.

I really really love- Social D., Op. Ivy, Rancid & all spin off bands, Necromantix, Guttermouth, NUFAN (RIP Tony Sly), Lagwagon, NOFX, the Vandals, Minor Threat, DKM, Black Flag, Tiger Army, MCR.
My go-to cd in the car is The Ataris- So Long Astoria :)

on as a certain genre cause its mixed. Like Tool, Deftones ect.
Hope I am answering the question correctly.
