''No Alternative'' is regarded as the definitive Alternative Rock compilation of 1994 , receiving a rating of '''''A+''''' from '' Entertainment Weekly ''. This Compilation Album features original tracks and Cover Version s from bands who went on to define the alternative rock scene of the 1990 s.

A Television Special hosted by MTV and Home Video featured Live Performances , Music Video s, and information about AIDS for an audience otherwise untargeted by other AIDS Organization s.

It was Kurt Cobain's decision for "Sappy" to remain uncredited on No Alternative, for fear of distracting from the other bands on the compilation.
