Links to the modern rock charts of various issues of Billboard magazine are included in the right column. You may notice that throughout the Aughts, the music on the chart became increasingly less "alternative" (or what used to be called "modern rock"), in favor of more corporate, less inventive, and often downright bland rock. Bottom line, a lot of it sounded the same, and it continues up until this day. There is still a lot great music being made, but the majority of it isn't showing up on the Billboard "Alternative" charts.
The chart below is from January 20, 1996.
