Means 'alternative', often misunderstood for a habit, it is a lifestyle; a group of Nigerian youth with a unique sense of fashion and music. Alté fashion embraces a retro and vintage style, but is some how tagged as "new school". Alté music on the other hand is not mainstream, it is a melodic, whimsy, almost-spiritual groove. The melody and harmony somehow layer over each other, making it a seamless experience in the ear.
I hung out with Ryan last night, he's very much enveloped in this alté music now.

Alter Bridge 

Probably the best hard rock band out there today. Incredibly underrated.
Their first album was great, and every one since has been both fantastic and a great improvement since the last.

Members: Myles Kennedy - Vocals/Rhythm Guitar, Mark Tremonti - Lead Guitar, Scott Phillips - Drums/Percussion, Brian Marshall - Bass.

Their first album titled 'One Day Remains' had some good tracks on it, but their second album 'Blackbird' built on this and was better in almost every way. ABIII (their third album) was to Blackbird what Blackbird was to One Day Remains. Just incredible.
Example 1:
1) "Have you heard of Alter Bridge?"
2) "No, who are they?"
1) "Only the best Band you've never heard of."

Example 2:
1) "Whatcha listen' bro?"
2) 'Blackbird by Alter Bridge, from their second album entitled "Blackbird"'
1) "What they soundin' like?"
2) "Here, listen to Blackbird's solo by Mark Tremonti and Myles Kennedy."
1) "holy crap, my ears just came."
