90s Alternative — artist
'90s Alternative is a music genre that emerged from the independent music scene of the late 1980s and gained mainstream popularity in the 1990s. It is characterized by its diverse sound, which incorporates elements of punk, post-punk, and indie rock. Influenced by bands like R.E.M., The Pixies, and Sonic Youth, '90s Alternative is known for its emphasis on raw, guitar-driven melodies and introspective lyrics. The genre is defined by its rejection of the polished production of the preceding decade, often favoring a more authentic and unrefined sound.
