Lithium 24 is a 1990s grunge and alternative rock radio station that debuted on Sirius Satellite Radio channel 24 and Dish Network channel 6024 in the U.S. on February 14, 2007, moving Sirius Disorder to channel 32 and later to channel 70. Due to technical difficulties at Sirius, Sirius channel 24 is now listed as "'90s Alternative" on some Sirius radios. The Stiletto 2 connected to Wi-Fi mode has the proper Lithium logo. When connected to Satellite mode, the Stiletto 2 displays the Sirius dog logo.
The Sirius website displays the channel as "Lithium." It takes its name from the Nirvana song, "Lithium."
While the primary focus is grunge and alternative rock, the station also plays bands from the late '90s wave of alternative metal, such as Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, and Limp Bizkit.
