5 Alternative Artists/Bands You Need To Listen To
WTOP

My all time favorite genre of music is alternative. Whether it is grunge or indie pop or anything in between, it's basically all I listen to. So, when I find new bands or artists that I love, it's so exciting to me. Because alternative is such a diverse genre, I'm always finding new music that I love. If you are like me in this way, here are 7 of my favorite alternative bands and artists I am listening to right now.

1. Billie Eilish

My favorite song: idontwannabeyouanymore

Lyrics:

If teardrops could be bottled

There'd be swimming pools filled by models

Told a tight dress is what makes you a whore

Billie Eilish is an alternative singer from Los Angeles, California who has just recently put out a new album titled "don't smile at me," which I have been playing on repeat since it has came out. Her mature vocals and lyrics make it surprising that she is only 15!

2. The Night Cafe

My favorite song: Mixed Signals

Lyrics:

And now you're not mine, mine

I didn't think that I didn't need you

I just got fucked and you made the decisions

I stumbled across this band on Tumblr one day and have been obsessed ever since! Most of their music has a nice indie pop/indie rock vibe that always makes me want to drive with the windows down. They are definitely a new favorite of mine.

3. Hippo Campus

My favorite song: baseball

Lyrics:

There goes that moonboy
Looking jungly
With all his leaves a-growing

This indie rock band from St. Paul, Minnesota have plenty of songs that'll make you want to get up and dance around your bedroom like they do in the movies.

4. The Hunna

My favorite song: You & Me

Lyrics:

You & me

Smoking by the hunna tree

You & me

We were meant to be

Right now, The Hunna is all I can listen to. Their music makes me miss summer and being with my friends.

5. Early Eyes

My favorite song: Take You

Lyrics:

There’s a lot to recover from that night out

When you leaned in and whispered, “yeah I’m trying to take you down.”

Early Eyes is an indie band from Minnesota that I also discovered on Tumblr. I really recommend going on YouTube and looking at some of their live music.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

Ancient Roman Kings: 7 Leaders of Early Rome

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.
