Miss Alternative

Kayle Lopez (aka @missalternative_xo) is a Gen Z voice with an old soul and a deep, genre-loyal knowledge of 1980s alternative music. Through her Instagram, she’s built a loyal following by spotlighting post-punk obscurities, punk deep dives, and synth-laced gems that defined the darker side of the decade. Beyond the music, she also explores the subculture - its fashion, attitude, and underground spirit. A passionate record collector, she connects with it all beyond nostalgia, treating it as something timeless, physical, and worth preserving.
