Album DescriptionIt's underground music-the fringe, the outsiders, the different, mixed sounds that appealed to music lovers in the 1980s who reveled in individuality. Starting from the underground, then to the college scene and some moving on to sell-out stadium crowds, these Alternative Bands of the '80s influenced a generation of musicians and fans, and these bands continue to be as relevant today as they were 20 years ago. And, now for the first time 18 of the definitive tracks that define this genre are brought together in Time Life's Sound of the Underground.
