I can't stop singing the praises of elbo.ws, a music blog aggregator that a friend introduced me to a while back. The older I get, the less I seem to be surrounded by people whose primary interest is in discovering new bands and liking them before anyone else does (and then, of course, disliking them the second they become popular). While I don't miss the snobbery of "I liked them when they were playing shows to 6 people, 3 of whom were dating band members," I do miss the presence of new music in my life. One cannot live by Bruce Springsteen alone.
So, I highly recommend that anyone with a similar craving for music made in this century check it out. It's a great source for free MP3 downloads as well as the opinions of those who are paying a lot more attention than I am to new releases and up and coming bands.
Here's a link to a folder where I've shared some of the songs that elbo.ws has introduced me to.
