So who uses music blogs much? Recently been using some blogs as a tool for discovering new music and so far, results have been good. Post your favourite blogs so we can all expand our library.
Here's one of my favourites. "Music for Maniacs", where the guy just posts weird and obscure albums. you can find some really interesting stuff. This guy has been running this blog for ages but I just recently heard of it.

I'll bump with some more cool blogs to get the
ball rolling.
Lurking, do post anon.
"Hip Hop is Read" is really cool hip-hop blog. Lots of Hip hop top 100's for samples and songs, but the real cool shit they release is in their "strange sounds" mixtapes, where they just put out a compilation obscure and interesting non-hip hop stuff for sampling and just enjoying.
http://www.hiphopisread.com/
Never even heard of this one, just bumping with it because it seems cool.
"Music you've never heard….'til now! A blog of rare, hardly-heard or remembered pop, hip-hop, R&B and dance music from the 80s, 90s & 2000s. From one-hit wonders to no-hit wonders, this blog has it all!!"
Mostly 80's, 90's and 2000's according to the site.

most of these are kind of dead now with dead links everywhere but they still work fine as archives
Any way to post links without constantly being spammed to reformat my post? I have a folder full of blogs that I frequent.

Not an actual music blog, but offers complete discogs on some bands/musicians if you're lucky. I got the entire Kate Bush discog from here without resorting to torrenting.

This thread is giving me a bonner.
I lied about going off, this thread is way too much fun. One more for the darkwave/goth/new wave brethren:

Discovered this while looking for Cocteau Twins EPs.
I don't trust music fans that don't use mp3 blogs
