  16. Accordiung to me, there is no such thing as "Alternative" music anymore since
  17. "alternative" music is pretty mainstream today.
  18.         I listen to such bands as the Butthole Surfers, Nomeansno, Negativland,
  19. Sucking
  20.  Chest Wound, Psychic TV, etc... but I would hesitate calling them
  21. "alternative" because by today's definition, they aren't.
  22.  
  23. For real alternative music, listen to something from the real "Alternative"
  24. label, Alternative Tentacles.
