Q2 Alternative Music 2025

a car radio with a red button 

It seems like half of the songs are new and about half of them are older songs. All the older songs seems to be the same as the last months and even last year. About 20 new songs the past couple of months and I love getting to know new music. 

Excited that all these guys are probably touring. It is wild that as the time goes on, the one hit wonders and the bar songs are generally all the same.

With the songs generally the same, my songs I love are different but these are the top songs here.  Different songs than the first couple of months this year but once again I love the new music. Hozier's song is probably is going to just be in th rotation from now on. Simple and amazing song. 


Hozier and Green Day pop out to me here but the other songs will be amazing Sleep token and ghosts are going to be legacy acts maybe too.
