Believe it or not, alternative rock music did not get its start in the dive bars and independent radio stations of the Pacific Northwest. The genre began decades before Nirvana and Pearl Jam reared their grungey heads. Early alt-rock was born of the ‘60s counterculture, crystallized in the gritty, psychedelic haze of the New York underground music scene. In fact, the conception of punk, grunge, indie and countless other subgenres of alternative rock can all be traced back to a singular collection of work – one album that catalyzed the entire genre.
