Watch out for snakes? Is that an MST3K reference?!

I suggest just going to one of them and browsing through the links in the sidebar. Here's mine:

Links to my faves on the right-hand side under the "bloggerati" heading.

I guess it depends on the kind of music you're looking for...
I see they mentioned Motel de Moka already (http://mookamotel.blogspot.com), I love that blog, the variety of their selections is always over the top. One of my fav ones. You'll surely find something you like in there.
For something a bit more challengin try http://everythingisfire.com, http://20jazzfunkgreats.blogspot.com or http://areyoufamiliar.blogspot.com they have some great tunes in there.
For anything pop just hit fluxblog.org, it's a great blog.

I feel that the triad (they're all good friends) of You Ain't No Picasso http://youaintnopicasso.comMy Old Kentucky Blog http://myoldkyhome.blogspot.com and Gorilla Vs. Bear http://gorillavsbear.net is really overated. I mean, they do a hell of a job keeping their blogs updated daily but the three of them post very similar things and they're obsessed on promoting indie bullshit instead of focusing on the interesting bands. They're more hit or miss blogs... and hey, whats with all those ads!? horrible...

ah I also forgot, the catbirdseat (http://www.catbirdseat.org/catbirdseat/) aurgasm (http://aurgasm.us/) and comfort music (http://www.comfortradio.org/comfortmusic/)are excellent music blogs too. One of the best kept secrets in the mp3 world is probably this blog: (http://www.bumrocks.com).

Hope I was of any help :D
