Unlike contemporary singer/songwriters, who followed the trends of mainstream pop, alternative artists like Liz Phair, Will Oldham (in his many guises), and Elliott Smith garnered widespread acclaim, and even a measure of mass popularity, but remained firmly rooted outsde of the mainstream.

When Linda Perry sings, “Twenty-five years and my life is still / Tryin’ to get up that great big hill of hope / For a destination” at the start of 4 Non Blondes’ “What’s Up?,” her voice practically cracks with disappointment, as if she’s been living and searching for even longer. If only everyone who attempted this song at karaoke night could must...
Is Aimee Mann’s 1995 single “You Could Make a Killing” about making a lot of money, or is it about a literal act of murder? It’s probably the former, but there’s something unsettling about the ambient sound effects in the song’s opening seconds – which bring to mind screeching tires and police sirens – as well as lyrics that seem to hint at somethi...
In contrast with their fellow countrymen Daft Punk, Air made electronic music that was designed for lounging as opposed to clubbing. Glassy and downtempo, it felt like a throwback to space-age pop or the “sounds of the future” of the past. “La femme d’argent” is a seven-minute pleasure cruise through the cosmos, so immaculate on the ears that there...
Alanis Morissette’s first two albums weren’t even released outside of her native Canada, but she struck gold with Jagged Little Pill, a runaway smash that sold over 33 million copies around the world. The spark that lit its success was lead single “You Oughta Know”—half unfiltered expression of sexuality and half brutal takedown of a selfish ex (“A...
The Beastie Boysreturned to their punk roots with “Sabotage,” a white-hot blast of rage and noise that sounded equally at home on rock and rap radio. Rather than signal a stylistic retreat for the trio, it instead offered further proof of their restless musical curiosity and willingness to shake up their sound.
Throughout their career, The Beautiful South spiked their melodic indie-pop with acerbic humor. “I’m Your No.1 Fan” is perhaps as close as they could get to writing an out-and-out love song, and even then, they tell it slant. Despite the implied romance of a lyric like “I was handed down a bike / With a crooked old wheel / But I rode it on a millio...
Is it folk? Is it hip-hop? And what’s with the sitar loop – is it raga rock? Whatever you call it, Beck’s idiosyncratic “Loser” became a runaway hit, transforming the struggling songwriter into a major label concern – and alternative’s next big thing. Just don’t call him a slacker.
There’s a touching metaphor at the heart of Belly’s “Feed the Tree”: The tree in question refers to one that you would bury a loved one under. When Tanya Donnelly sings “be there when I feed the tree,” it becomes a plea to stay committed to her even after her death. But it’s the song’s dreamy guitars that propelled “Feed the Tree” onto the charts, ...
Less a song than a short story in four and a half minutes, Ben Folds wrote “Brick” about his high school girlfriend’s abortion and the dissolution of their relationship. It’s a heavy subject that Folds treats with the seriousness it deserves, wisely refraining from politicizing it and instead zeroing in on the emotional intensity of the situation –...
Strictly speaking, Björk’s 1993 album Debutwasn’t really her debut: She’d been in Icelandic rock bands for a decade and a half, and even had a brief stint as a child singer. It did, however, serve as her introduction to the world as a solo artist and a true visionary, recasting house and electronic music as prismatic pop. It wouldn’t be long before...
