alternative gets pretty broad in the 90s. songs like mmmm by the crash test dummies or some bjork song should apply. to clarify, for knuckleheads, I realize we would not likely pick these songs, but picks should be wide open, but what we would consider alt rock..no Metallica etc. maybe add 2 1 hit alt wonders.

Agtee. You can’t paint this with a broad brush.

Looks like we have enough for a solid league. I will put together a draft thread this afternoon.

 When you say alternative, that includes grunge?

Anyone have Rusty’s number? Text him and see if he can stay out of a political thread for 5 minutes and join us. 
 

I know some of you have Sux number. Text him too and see if he is in or not

@SUXBNME is a luddite. He doesn't have a cellphone. I'll call him. 

ETA: He must be balls deep in a kat, he didn't answer. I'm sure he's in.

I'm finding Oasis is considered Britpop, however New Order is considered Alternative, so will New Order songs count in this draft?

I think Britpop counts as alternative. two that I am wondering if they should be included are ska and punk. like Green Day, they are punk, but are they alternative?

Wiki lists Green Day as alternative rock.

its fine, but I don't agree. they just get lumped in due to timing. like how people say the pumpkins are grunge.

At the end of the day, everyone draft what they consider alternative and we will let the voters decide who did the best job.
