Default Alternative: Style or status?
Do you guys consider a particular band alternative because they have a fairly unique sound, or do you prefer to base it on commercial success (or lack there of) and accessibility?

For example, I like Red Hot Chili Peppers, and refer to them as "alternative" rock, but I know many people wouldn't because RHCP is hugely successful now.

Just curious about your opinions on the subject.
