Name

Alternative5 Fanatic

Description

Alternative5 is a Spanish progressive rock band formed in Pinoso (Alicante). They were born in early 2009 as a tribute band to Queen, with performances throughout the province of Alicante, Murcia, and Castilla-La Mancha.

The band takes its name in reference to the book "Alternative3" by Leslie Watkins and a "fake documentary" which caused some controversy. This is similar to the impact that had the radio adaptation of "War of the Worlds" by HG Wells, narrated by Orson Welles.

The band was also inspired by other bands, such as Dream Theater, Coldplay, Pink Floyd, and U2.

After Alternative5 released 3 studio albums and 1 compilation album, lead singer Ferran Leal left the band to make his own material on other platforms, including YouTube.

He made his own separate song called "Una Parte de Mí" (A Part of Me) and released it on May 21, 2017, using the new name "Lunar Maru."
