I'm glad you're updating again.

However, not to glad to read that you were beat up. That's terrible!

Good to see the site up and running again, Riz.
Tidy work mate.

Did The New Pornographers album get a JJJ Feature album spot?

Dude! I haven't talked to you in ages, but I still check your site all the time. I've found heaps of great new stuff here. Please keep it up :)

While we all have our hectic lives, sometimes spinning out of control like a whirlwind, or at other times rolling by slowly like a tumbleweed;
It's good to know that we can come to somewhere like The Alt for good music that we would otherwise not hear in our daily lives, being forced to listen to Triple M at work, and listening to the same old music getting rotated on jjj in the afternoons and mornings.

So with that said, I thank you Angsty for keeping the site alive and to all the posters for sharing their thoughts and music.

Keep on Truckin` 2004 !

This is the least pretentious music site on the net. You have to keep it going. Where else would we hear about such great deserving bands. Especially in the United States home of MTV!

Ditto and Amen.
It's great to see The Alt up and running again, and I thank you for bringing all this music, that I would otherwise have never heard, to my attention.

You're right, this site is the coolest thing on the internet and though it may not be as widely recognised as it should be, it obviously has its share of devout fans :)

I recently bought a CD which I first sampled here and it's fantastic. You're doing an excellent job and I hope you keep it up!

Thank the diddims that the site is back (somewhat). KEEP IT UP! It is the only decent alternative to, well, everything really.

I too had my first serious fight in **ages** in January, after about 20 'cowboys' (this drink of choice may illustrate just how anti-hard and crap at being tough I am.) Perhaps you can open a link for a "Gallery of Bruised Egos (and Heads)"
Did you forget your special "AngstyBlock" - tap back on the joystick twice and press 'high kick' - whereby you taunt your thick, violent attackers with how thick and violent they are? And then stab 'em in the eye with a sharpened Bic.
Keep truckin' in the face of indifference - without you I wouldn't have run down to HMV *eeuwgh* and come back with a copy of 'Shutes Too Narrow' in my hot little hands...

Great site dude, you're the only way i get to hear great new bands from Scotland!

Posted by spuckle at February 19, 2004 09:46 PM

you suck for bagging out triple j.

They can't put every album on "album of the week".

I listen to everyday and it's an awsome station.

At least they're not commercial.

I admit not all the music played is good but it's way better than brittney spears and guy sebastian.

You shouldn't bag so much.

But thankyou for putting good downloads on your site.

Elbow are a bunch of really great guys, i met them and hung out with them before their concert last saturday night supporting placebo, their live set was awesome, and they really are brilliant

rock on

did athlete - vehicles and animals get much airtime?

Posted by nick at March 24, 2004 08:03 PM

Just thought I'd let you know Triple J do play Elbow. They're the only reason I have any idea who Elbow are! I recall them talking them up a fair bit too, giving a brief bio when they played tracks. Just because they didn't make feature album doesn't mean they were neglected entirely.
