Two incredibly well done indie hip hop blogs, I would strongly recommend at least visiting them both and seeing what's what.

Same. Hoping to get it going soon though.

Thanks for the entries guys, all are added and keep em' coming.

chug life is primarily screamo/hardcore but they'll occasionally post some folk or whatever.
Mathvsrock is a math rock blog, zero g sound has mostly reggae dub blues and soul.

Keep it going Conan. Honestly I think this should be stickied in here.

http://metal-ist-the-law.blogspot.com/

This is a great blog for metal.

A few of my recent favorites.

PostRockXChange
Radiobutt
TheSirensSound

I generally like to keep my blogging habits to myself in case I find the odd gem therefore making me feel all superior and cool when in reality 50% of what I find is due to someone else!

THE COMMERCIAL ZONE

For all your post punk needs

Musical Pairings from eating/sf - a lot of different genres, pairs music with food.

Wow just downloaded that Punch LP from Chug Life and it's fantastic!

hells yeah. along with

The Post Punk Progressive Pop Party

Doesn't qualify so I put it under "Other".

Here's another good one, has a bit of everything.

Don't Think Twice, It's All Right

Elbo.ws has some good live bootlegs available.

http://doctor****wit.wordpress.com/

Hellbilly, decrepit blues, and alot of sleazy rock n' roll.
Looks shoddy, but the content is superb.

I'll merge the threads here if Conan wants to add them all.

I don't think it's really worth it to be honest. There are more blogs listed in this one than both the others combined and because those other threads are old a lot of the blogs in them don't exist anymore.

Plus if you merge them the whole list of blogs in the first post will get lost in the shuffle.

I say keep it as it is.

Substix

one of our (former) friends put something together a few months back, it's actually picking up rather nicely.

Molecules style of writing is bloody great. I am envious definitely.

Clinical Archives

Basically an collection of around 300 free online avant guard releases, so it's 100% legal.

This is what the blurb says on the site.

Clinical Archives is independent netlabel for eclectic and illogical music. The basic directions : abstract, avant-garde, alternative, indie, intuition improvisation, free improv, jazz fusion, electronic jazz, free jazz, funk rocktronica, jam band, live electronic, experimental, manipulation, neoclassicism, illbient, ambient, musique concrète, noise, tape music, minimalism, acousmatic music, sound sculpture, sound collage, electroacoustic, acoustic; drone, new wave, field recordings, microsound, montage, psychedelic, folk; quasi-folk; prog-rock; post-punk; trip-hop, soundscapes, sound art, spoken word, strange and other forms ...
"Clinical Archives is about expanding the definition of music"
All those works are released for free under Creative Commons Licences.

Hey guys, thanks for the blogs. All are added. I don't think merging would be a good idea, as it appears alot of those blogs are no longer updated or closed down. I will however go through those and try to find the working ones.

Post Number 1,000 :)

Shameless Self Promotion

(My Gothic Country Blog)

Added, and great job on the blog by the way!

These blogs are just overloading my brain with new music to listen to!!!

Probably my favourite, mostly noise rock and the like
