- Heart Eyes Magazine. I’ll be honest. I write for Heart Eyes, so the magazine has a special place in my heart. I love the opportunities its given me and the artists it has connected me with.
- Pitchfork. Pitchfork is a great in-between site that features both mainstream and indie artists. But they offer much more than just interviews and music reviews.
- Performer. Performer is a full-service resource for musicians. They provide music reviews as well as equipment recommendations that will enhance your playlists and production quality.
- Honey Punch Magazine. I would consider Honey Punch and Heart Eyes to be sister sites. They cover practically identical genres and photographer Ava Butera contributes to both.

If you’ve got a new song, and you’re serious about your career, submitting to Little Indie Blogsmight be a good career move. They update their site with loads of new content every single day, and they’re also a Hype Machine recognized blog. To me, the blogs most worth submitting to are those Hype Machine aggregates. But if you can’t get on any of t...
Acid Stag is another music blog that’s updated with tons of fresh content every single day. Their website is clean and attractive, and easy to navigate. Their content, however, is mostly short form. Still, it can’t hurt to get some coveragefrom them as an independent musician. Although it is an Australian music site, they cover news from around the...

They appear to be quite friendly towards indie artists trying to make a go of it. Overall, their submission process is quite simple. They only require: Your artist or band name,...
SYFFALdoesn’t get updated as frequently as some of the other music blogs out there. Their content is also mostly visual or short form. But in their own words, “SYFFAL.com is not an outfit of snobs.” That’s a relief. They are looking for quality content, just like anyone else, but they are open to at least looking at any music that’s sent their way....
Louder Than Waris updated daily with fresh album reviews, music news, and interviews. For the most part, it appears they review pop punk, rock, alternative, independent, and experimental music.

They have submission forms for those looking for coverage, so simply provide them with the information they need, and wait for their response. They do, however, have submissio...
This Song Is Sickcaters to those looking for new music, specifically electronic, hip hop, indie, and alternative music. They’re sharing plenty of new content daily, but most updates aren’t much longer than three paragraphs. Their submission process is somewhat like The Word Is Bond in that they have forms for you to fill out, and you can choose bet...
A&R Factoryis somewhat unique in that in addition to being a popular music review blog, they also offer artists development packages and consulting services. Now, don’t ask me whether you should hire them, because I don’t know. I would suggest finding reviews or talking to other artists who’ve worked with them if you're curious. A far as content go...
Consequence of Soundis so much more than just a music blog. They’re a noted Chicago-based publication that also covers film, TV, and related news. They also have several podcasts of their own. I can’t find submission guidelines on their site, but they are accepting music submissions via email (also see their “Contact Us” page). Again, there are no ...
Drowned In Soundhas news, features, interviews, and reviews, and they publish tons of new content daily.
