because that's the only good area of music today.
everything else can do die

Excuse me, but that's inappropriate for school.

OMG I LOVE ALT ROCK.
but i dont think a lot of people realise that the following subgenres:
gothic rock, dream pop, britpop, grunge, indie pop, indie rock, industrial rock, lo-fi, noise pop, noise rock, post-rock, post-punk revival, shoegazing and many more

all come back to alternative rock. theyre all subgenres of alternative rock. i wouldnt be surprised if you found someone saying 'i hate alt rock but i love indie pop' that wouldnt necessarily be true, if you think about it.

It's a subgenre, and alt rock isn't the most popular...

One band does not simply make it popular.

I said one of the biggest.
One of.
And you're forgetting the 1990s. We had Everclear, Nirvana, Bush, at least 100 more popular alt rock artists.

>It's picked up now, we're in a new decade..

first of all alt rock is a genre.
second of all actually alternative rock is still very very very popular.

the 1975 self-title, indie rock, currently at 41 in the charts but was once at number 1

graffiti on the train by stereophonics, indie rock/alt rock, currently at 82 in the charts but was once at number 3, gold

so thats stuff thats still charting but stuff that did chart once

I get the feeling that Jenti is one of those generally disliked newbags that tries to fit in by insulting everyone.

True or false?
