    Amazing, thanks. Is there a way to keep up with all of those? Isnt there like a RSS feeder thing or something, think thats what they're called. Not sure how those work, could someone explain?

    EDIT: Found an extension for Firefox, called Sage. On some of those blogs, I cant get the link to add to sage, I click on their RSS Feeder button thing and it either gives me a bunch of coding stuff or just cant add. Anyone know how to get around that. Is there a good RSS Feeder program I can get that will handle all? Like I am fuel, you are friends, cant seem to figure out how to get that in sage...

    I go to www.metacritic.com and look at reviews. They compile reviews from a wider range of sources like Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Blender, etc. so you can find what source you respect and see what they have to say. They update new albums with reviews pretty fast.

    I have reached a point where I'm in my music "comfort zone". I don't find barely any modern music that I like.

    And, honestly, I'm quite happy listening to the same music. :)

    I find out about a lot of bands on a Radiohead Message Board

    Also, go to amazon and type in an album by a band you like and they recommend other bands that sound similar

    Are you running Firefox 2?

    Sage is good... you might want to try an online reader like Bloglines or Google Reader. The cool thing about both is that they have subscription bookmarklets that you can then use as a mini-search so you'll get exactly the feed needed for your reader.

    I get most of my new music ideas from MTV's TRL.
