THE VOICE OF THE MUSIC BLOGOSPHERE!

Aaahhh the crunch of fallen leaves beneath our feet and the warm hum of new music in our ears. Autumn has arrived in Blog Fresh's neighborhood. So, too, have all those new releases we heard about on our recent Fall Preview show--and a ton more great music we weren't even expecting!

But of course, that's why you're here! To keep an eye on all the fresh, new stuff that's getting posted on the most reliable music blogs around the globe.

Well, you won't be disappointed this week, as we have some superb blogs, and a slew of great tunes. The founder of perennial favorite I Guess I'm Floating (maybe you've heard of them?) makes a long-awaited Blog Fresh debut; Just Press Play brings us two of the most-buzzed-about bands in his hometown of Manchester, England; and we welcome back an old favorite, London-based Music Like Dirt, who divulges the name of the UK's best new live band.

Plus, we bring you the Blog Fresh Chart, our countdown of the 10 bands and artists getting the most attention on music blogs around the world right this minute. And the proverbial "more"!

If you could actually plug your headphones into the music blogosphere, turn up the volume and just listen, it would sound like... this.
