- Accordiung to me, there is no such thing as "Alternative" music anymore si
- nce
- "alternative" music is pretty mainstream today.
- I listen to such bands as the Butthole Surfers, Nomeansno, Negativ
- land,
- Sucking
- Chest Wound, Psychic TV, etc... but I would hesitate calling them
- "alternative" because by today's definition, they aren't.
-
- For real alternative music, listen to something from the real "Alternative
- "
- label, Alternative Tentacles.

- Speaking of Alternative Tentacles, would anyone have any information on
- what Jello Biafra's next project will be, or maybe when his next spoken
- word album is to be released? I used to receive stuff from them while I
- was on the staff of the campus newspaper, but I don't have their
- catalogues and such an ymore. The last thing I got was Klaus Fluoride's
- last album....
