According to Sirius: Alternative rock's pioneering artists and songsDriving Conditions: Normal driving day, so spent about 40 minutes or so in the car.
My Experience: Wasn't really sure what to expect when the radio dial said 1st Wave, but then I heard The Psychedelic Furs, and I think I had it figured out. Sure enough, my response to each artist that came up was "Yup, I expected them to be here, too." Basically, Depeche Mode and everything that sounds like Depeche Mode. Or stuff my boss loves to listen to...kind of the alternative side of '80s music. Not quite what I'm used to, but still enjoyable.
Sample Playlist:
- The Psychedelic Furs, Love My Way
- Depeche Mode, Flexible
- Billy Idol, Catch My Fall
- Tears for Fears, Shout
- Simple Minds, Glittering Prize
- The Clash, This is Radio Clash
Verdict: All in all, as I said above, enjoyable. While I likely wouldn't listen to this regularly, it was still entertaining enough that I bookmarked it and will listen to it on occasion.
