You don't even bother anymore You cut to the bone Pick up the phone To hear my swan song You don't even bother anymore You left me alone I'm on my own Tell me where we went wrong Swan Song, by Set It Off

What ways do you get into new music: friends, tv, websites...? How do you get new music: buy cds, download or just stream on the Internet...?

well, i would type in a genre on Ares sometimes pick random groups see if any are good and then search of similar artist, television and radio are cool, also i have found many songs through AMVs and just normal Youtube videos, sometimes last fm as well

I tend to use Lastfm, Myspace and Youtube for getting into new bands. Then if I have the time I check out sites such as Amazon to read album reviews. I rarely buy actual cd's..

^ CD's on my island are too expensive lol, for now i stick with downloading, but i'm going to but CD's of my fav bands when i travel and or get richer lol But also, looking in CD stores was a way i used to look for new music as well, the person in the store is always kind enough to play it for me as well. O i also forgot i also used to look at Wikipedia , i just had to type in " emo bands" and they would give me a list of bands in alphabetical order, i would then read into them to see if they were really emo or not.

Rock Sound is the best. You get a CD every month with it too. :)
