Genre - Alternative Rock

Alternative Rock, also known as alternative music, alt-rock or simply alternative, is a descendant of punk rock in the early 1980s and became popular in the 1990s. The term "alternative" was used to describe punk rock band that did not fit in the mainstream music during the time. Alternative bands were rejected from the popular commercialism, and played their music in small pub or aired through college radio, which is why it used to be called College Rock. Big commercial stations ignored the new genre and only aired it late at night, but gradually began to play Alternative Rock, paved way to the modern rock radio format. Alternative rock became popular in the 90's with the surgance of bands like Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Bush and Pearl Jam. Alternative rock consisted of many subgenres influenced by folk music, reggae, electronic music, and jazz.


The cover song that we did is called " Let The Flames Begin" by Paramore. Did song was really fun but kind of hard to play because it was our first time playing intruments. But we all tried our best. :]
