Corner Tavern Alternative Reignites

by Altrok Radio

Our old friend DJ Drew posts this tidbit:

Summer is drawing to a close and school is back in session, which means we're back at The Corner Tavern on Saturday nights. We DJs took the summer off, but the bands didn't - there's lots of new music out since June that we haven't had the chance to play yet. Come join us this Saturday night to hear the best new indie and alternative music the summer had to offer including bands like:

Passion Pit - La Roux - Phoenix - The Dead Weather - Arctic Monkeys - The Sounds - Friendly Fires - Mew - Matt & Kim - Chevelle - Kasabian - Placebo - Spoon

As well as our typical classics and such from bands like:

Depeche Mode - White Lies - The Cure - The Pixies - Nine Inch Nails - Yeah Yeah Yeahs - The Kills - Bloc Party - IAMX - Ladytron

and don't forget...the ALL-ERAS MELODY BAR REUNION party September 12 at 8pm !!!

Please Look At Our Advertisers (Or The Website Gets It)
Congratulations, you've found the hidden text.
 
Welcome to Altrok.com, also available at AltrokRadio.com and AltrockRadio.com. Here's where the remaining listeners of several fine radio stations have retreated, regrouped, and built a replacement strong enough to stand on its own. It builds on the independent legacy of New Jersey's FM106.3, New York's WPIX and WLIR, Oklahoma's 105.3 The Spy, the pre-buyout mindset of KROQ, WBCN and WHFS and of every other alternative station that was destroyed at a moment's notice - not because they weren't making money, but because there was bigger money to be found elsewhere.
 
We've stood by as truly independent alternative rock radio died. Sure, something called "alternative" took its place, but we know for sure that anything that "tests well" with soccer moms just ain't alternative. (Even if some of us happen to be soccer moms.) So we've taken matters into our own hands.
 
This really is independent alternative rock radio, visible here at Altrok.com and audible at our web radio station. It has the classic music that fired our passions back in the day - or that we maybe only heard about from our elders - but it's mostly made of the new music that does precisely the same for us now. We're paying attention to scenes all over the world, watching the energy build, and waiting to see what it creates. Wherever it happens, we'll make sure you can hear about it here. We've been slowly building all this since 2001, and now that you've noticed us, we're glad you're here.
 
Of course, it's only here because you want it to be here, and it can only stay if you help it along - especially by checking out our advertisers (they support us) and by listening (the more that listen, the more visible we are.) Please use the "feedback" link above to let us know whether it works for you, and what you want it to be as the future unfolds. (And if you need help hearing it, let us know that, too.)
