From Never Mind the Bullocks to Nirvana's Nevermind, Martin Strong looks at the alternative scene's lauded and much-loved (The Smiths, New Order, The Fall), right down to the down right weird (Half Man Half Biscuit, Afghan Whigs, Ozric Tentacles). With complete discographies, band histories, catalog numbers, chart listening and recommended listening--if you're looking for a detailed history of independent music, there really is no alternative.
