- This is my first post to this list...so be gentle...;)
-
- I like a majority of different styles of music, I find something worthy in
- every type of music out there. I mostly listen to what people deem
- "Alternative" (i.e. Smiths, Concrete Blonde, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys,
- etc...), but I've been known to like groups and artists diverse such as
- Amy Grant, Mary Chapin-Carpenter, Pink Floyd, and Metallica.
-
- The reason for my post is this. Do you think that the genre refered to as
- Alternative is taking over the mainstream? I know many people who find
- every group that makes it to mainstream a "sell-out". I'd just like to
- hear your opinions as to this. Thanks.
