Mainstream? Nah.😈
Alt Chat is a free alternative dating, friendship and social community for people who were never that interested in fitting in.
Goth. Emo. Punk. Metalhead. Scene. Grunge. Indie. Darkwave. Industrial. Raver. Tattooed. Pierced. Kink-friendly. Poly. Somewhere between three different subcultures and impossible to label.
Meet alternative people through music, friendship, dating, creativity and community — without being asked to tone yourself down for everyone else.
🎵 YOUR MUSIC TASTE SAYS A LOT. COMPARE IT.
See which artists you have in common, compare music tastes and find someone who understands why that one band has been in your rotation for the last six years.
Into metal, metalcore, nu metal, hardcore, post-hardcore, goth music, post-punk, emo, alternative rock, pop punk, shoegaze, darkwave, industrial, techno or something Spotify still doesn't know how to categorize?
Perfect.
Your soundtrack is part of your profile here.
Discover people through music, compare your music taste and find alternative music lovers who actually get what you're listening to.
