Mixmag! 🙂
Metal Hammer and Classic Rock Magazine. As if you haven’t thought of those already 😛
I love Amie Street (http://amiestreet.com) for hearing about indy music (though they have some bigger named people too). I know you already know about Magnatune.
blabbermouth.net is where I get all my metal news.
stonerrock.com, hellridemusic.com, smallstone.com, southern.com
maximumrocknroll? [maximumrocknroll.com]
ultimate-guitar.com might be interested.
metalstorm.ee – they have a nice listing of upcoming metal albums
Pandora.com is about the only site that has given me suggestions of metal that I didn’t already know about and that I also really liked. While it’s not specifically metal, it did make some solid connections. Thanks for the sprinkling in of metal in the already riveting dialog that is found on jonobacon.org/LUGRadio!
I like MetalReview.com for regular reviews (http://metalreview.com/), as well as Metalreviews (http://v2.metalreviews.com/), which has nice reviews but less content. (Great names, both of these sites :()
Also, your band does not exist unless it has an entry at the Encyclopaedia Metallum (http://www.metal-archives.com/) 🙂
Also, Aversionline (http://www.aversionline.com/blahg/) used to be the place for getting a demo/non-label recording reviewed, but I don’t think he does that much anymore…
http://radioverve.com/metal Best of Indian Metal music.
I like Classic Rock. There is also MetalHammer Alternative magazine is also good I don’t have the website to hand but do a Google search for Metal Dating, they may be interested 🙂 Oh, and BrainDeadCollective Nights, I also don’t have the website to hand but they organize a lot of metal/goth nights/bands in the Midlands. They are always interested top hear of upcoming bands and I have seen verious bands play in various locations. The Birmingham Rock Soc – University of Birmingham organise things like that too.
Yes, I have nothing better to do on my lunchhour today!
http://www.ukthrash.co.uk for decent underground uk bands. 🙂
