AltSounds is an international daily Internet publication devoted to music criticism and commentary, music news, and artist interviews. Its focus is on alternative music.

The website was originally created in 2004 by editor-in-chief Chris "MUG5" Maguire.

AltSounds publishes content from contributors located around the globe, based in different continents and countries. Its staff includes writers from various backgrounds, ranging from academics and professional journalists to career professionals and first time writers.

It currently features the latest news, interviews, record reviews, as well competitions. The site has published "best-of" lists as annual features detailing the best albums of each year since 2008.

In November 2012, AltSounds was added to the list of ratings sources of AnyDecentMusic?. It was announced by saying: "AltSounds has recently joined the tastemaking chart website Any Decent Music, where our reviews are a part of the construction of the album chart."
