Tutkimus analysoi sitä, missä sävyssä muutoksesta vaihtoehtomusiikin kohdalla kirjoitetaan ja mitä sen kohdalla nostetaan esiin. Tutkimusmetodina käytettävän diskurssianalyysin kohdalla olen korostanut erityisesti vallan ja kontekstin merkitystä. Jälkeen mainittuun liittyen Rolling Stonea määrittää 1980-luvulla erityisesti kaksi seikkaa: kaupallisuus ja konservatiivisuus. Tämä näkyy sen vaihtoehtomusiikkia koskevassa kirjoittelussa yleensä, mutta myös sen muutosta koskevassa kirjoittelussa. Merkittävimmät vaihtoehtomusiikkikirjoittelua ja sen
