I've never evolved beyond it... I'm still mostly stuck in the 90's alternative sound.... I'm enjoying the grunge and alt revival that seems to be taking place at the moment. Loving new bands like Marissa and the Moths!

I’m the same. All my playlists don’t have any of the newer albums. Mainly late 90’s and early to mid 00’s

My taste is very wide ranging, from typical rock (def leppard, thunder etc.) all the way though to hardcore thrash via some prog metal and other off shoots.

If you’re after recommendations then why not say bands you like?

It would take far too long to list all of mine

People genuinely seem to have such varying tastes now (or at least admit it), should it even be classed as alternative? I agree that it's mostly older stuff. The first Audiosl@ve album will always be in my rotation... Wouldn't let me type the full word ha

Got into metal in 1992 and never looked back. Like a broad range of alternative music including goth and industrial.

That said, I'm almost exclusively listening to synthwave at the moment.

Korn will always be my jam (bring on the “nu metal” hate)

It needs to be heavy, with a groove and decent singing.

Some older stuff we still include are ill Nino, Mudvaybe, Motorgrater, Fear Factory etc. there is plenty of newer stuff we also enjoy like Tetrarch, Bury Tomorrow, Exotype, I Prevail, Mushroomhead, Gemini Syndrome, Nothing More, FFDP etc.
