MTV's 120 Minutes Archive
In 1986, when MTV still played music videos, the network debuted 120 Minutes. The show highlighted the best alternative music with new videos, interviews with bands, and live performances. Ultimately, it moved to MTV2 in 2000 and was officially canceled in 2003, but its legacy continues with this YouTube playlist. Created by Chris Reynolds, the alt-rock archive contains over 2,500 music videos played on the series during its 17-year run.
