DAY 2 of the 30 Day Song Challenge, alternative music styles!
Each day I’ll post the challenge and you share some of your favorite songs that meet the challenge!
One may be the loneliest number, but this community is nearly 2000 strong!
Late to the party with a Spanish song:
Standstill - Poema n° 3 (Spotify, Tidal, YouTube Music)
The first thing that came to mind is
15 Step - Radiohead
A couple others that came to mind that people might not know.
5 years time - Noah and the Whale
1878 - The Dear Hunter
Thirteen Hours - Andy Shauf
15 step is so good
Speaking of Andy Shauf, have you listened to Foxwarren?
I have! I do like them too but not as much as Andy Shauf’s solo stuff
I love the Foxwarren album but have only listened to pockets of Andy’s stuff. Any recommendation of where to jump in?
The Neon Skyline is my favorite of his and also the first album I heard from him. The Party is also pretty good. Both are concept albums so I would recommend listening to them straight through.
Thanks, will give them a go!

Oh wow. I love this. Thanks for sharing.
REM - The One I Love!
Bonus tracks:
Infected Mushroom - 9%
Infected Mushroom & Matisyahu - One Day
Ooh, and also Infected Mushroom - After 1000 YearsE: yes there is a theme, my autistic brain found something it likes and we’re sticking to it lol (I do enjoy loads of other music, but if I need to choose to put something on, it’ll always be IM)
I’m not the first person to post 2112, am I?
I thought about it. It’s an absolutely epic and essential song for any classic rock or prog fan. But I felt that it fell outside of alternative
Oh, oops, I misread the title
@ren Charlotte Gainsbourg - 5:55 (2007)
I’m surprised no one has said “One”. I guess Metallica’s global fame is starting to fade.
Probably the only Metallica song I ever liked - got to be coming up on nearly 40 years old at this point, eh?
