What happened to your videos of you performing your own songs?

I like them alright. I think I just set them on private a while back when I was commenting on some noam chomsky videos so I wouldnt get all the blow back comments.

What happened to your videos of you performing your own songs?

Particularly the blues song Widespread and I wrote for ElTexan after the Longhorn NC game loss.

OK, here's mine in no particular order and without putting a ton of thought behind it. Plenty of overlap with ODUSmitty

1 The Cure
2 Portishead
3 The Smiths
4 Dead Can Dance
5 U2
6 Depeche Mode (from Black Celebration on)
7 New Order
8 Oasis
9 Massive Attack
10 Ride ('Twisterella' is the perfect pop song)

Honorable mentions: Red House Painters, Frontline Assembly, The Stone Roses

If anything, this thread proves that "alternative band" is an ambiguous genre term.

Re: Top 10 alternative bands of all time...
Alternative music isn't really music. Listen to one album and you've heard them all. I prefer Big, Tupac, NWA, Snoop, Metallica, most 90's country, and slow Jazz. Of all the music I hate alternative is up there with nails on chalk board.

Positive Rep me and I'll vote for Obama in 2016

No particular order:

Alice N Chains
Soundgarden
STP
Tool
Smashing Pumpkins
Green Day
Nirvana

Honestly I always considered Alternative anything that was grunge or post grunge till about 2002. Then EMO and Screamo hit and I stopped listening to anything rock w/ the exception of Linkin Park and Evenescence. Even though I mentioned Green Day, I consider them more EMO than Alternative.
