How do you find out about new music?
I love music. I listen to pretty much everything. Not so much pop music or country but I love most rock, hip hop, metal, screamo, post hardcore, post punk, jam bands, some folk. I will go to like www.vagrant.com or the www.ferretstyle.com as for like post hardcore record labels but besides that I don’t really know where to look. The radio is not really my style of music either.

Last.fm
I find it a great introduction to new music. I found some of my favourite artists using it.
There’s always allmusic.com.
If you look up a band you like, there are often “genres” or “moods” associated with them that you can click on to find other bands or artists you may like.
I also use last.fm
I just see what my neighbors are listening to.
I subscribe to this site for all the music I love. Listening to jazz right now.
thanks guys. i appreciate it. I should have mentioned I already use pandora and used to use last.fm but the others will be interesting to check out
I hear a good song somewhere, it may be at work, on a commercial, a TV show, or walking down the street. I try and remember the lyrics in my head and as soon as I get home I google them!
It’s hard, but worth it. :)
Yeah I would second Pandora. If you’re already aware of some artists you like, it’ll recommend some similar ones!
All songs considered on NPR. I realize that getting new music from public radio is a little odd, but they’ve introduced me to She&Him, The Frames, Clap Your hands Say Yeah, and many others.
Also, if you’re in the mood for a random sampling, try www.musicovery.com. It picks songs based upon your mood.
yeah stealer!
haha just kidding
my new favorite thing is Pandora.com
all you do is type in a band that you like and it will match you up with songs that have the same feel as the band you like.
its fantastic.
