a alternative is someone who likes all kinds of music (mainly rock,grunge,metal,death metal,punk, etc)

Someone who isn't very good at playing World Of Warcracf & keeps getting his ass kicked.

To be honest, I was talking about 'Alternatives' to my mum the other day, she said "Cross Dressers?".

Although, me thinks 'Alternative' is just now what the Moshers in our wonderful norhtern land call themselves coz they got bored.. Maybe I should start calling myself a Hayishf.. hey, it might catch on..

Lana Del Rey is the queen of alternative. Argue with your mother.

A less intense version of rock and a more intense version of pop. Typically strays from the generic lyrics of pop. Lots of sub-categories, but the main two are alternative rock and alternative pop. Pretty much anything that doesn't fall into the distinct categories like rock, pop, jazz, classical, etc.

It also includes a lot of musical techniques found in other genres. Not very limited creatively.

A fancy way to say bullshit.
