Like upcoming albums, new bands, music news, all that stuff. I was always really into music, but with the pandemic + getting a job where I was basically alone most of the time led to me listening to podcasts more often I spent less time listening to or reading about music. My breaking point was having a pretty embarrassing Spotify wrapped lol. I've been going back to albums I loved pre-covid and catching up on the albums from artists I enjoy that I missed these past couple years but I want more. I used to check out all of the r/genreXheads to stay current but I can't stand using reddit anymore.

So are there any good blogs/twitter accounts/websites/newsletters/whatever you use to follow music?

Edit: I'm looking for places that I can also follow music, please do not give some vague answer about the weird insular music community you belong to unless you're also inviting me to join lol

    I know 4chan's /mu/ is cringe but I have found lots of great music using essentials charts and flowcharts

    but if you're more interested in newer releases the Bandcamp Daily blog regularly has articles/lists doing deep dives into all sorts of music, I particularly enjoy their monthly roundup of the best releases in a particular genre

      I've never used 4chan but I'm open to using it for music. and Bandcamp Daily is something I've been aware of but never followed, but I think I'll start!
