Hi Mike
I really like the Maxim music magazine - Blender. It's as well written as anything out there, and I've gotten some good leads from them in the past - The Libertines, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Very well written, and I get to hear of some bands I wouldn't normally hear from Winnipeg radio (they only play radio friendly crap). I'm also partial to a 1 hour radio program out of Toronto called "the History of New Music" with Allan Cross. His program actually pointed me in the direction of these websites:
http://ubl.artistdirect.com/
http://www.allmusic.com/
really complete websites with reviews/info/discographies on most bands. Then I usually does what Spiffnme does and head to Kazaa. Man I love that program!
