First Impressions

Every so often I go onto my music download site of choice and pour over the new additions. As I peruse the latest offerings I make a list of groups that stike my fancy. It might be the album name, the band name, or the album art, but something catches my eye about them so onto the list they go. I then plug the names into Google and usually I find the bands MySpace band site. Then I give a quick description of the music, a genre, and give them some arbitrary star rating, and a little check if I think I should dl it later. Its a fun way for me to find new bands and it is an excellent time waster when my day at the office is dragging. It looks a little like this.
