That's cool, but I mean I was searching some blogs for some Erstwhile Records albums recently and every single one of them had their links removed because the guy who runs that label msged them and told them to take down their links. In a way, that's kinda cool that he keeps on top of stuff like that; on the other hand, his label releases music that even a lot of so-called "avant-garde" types might find a bit difficult to listen to, so it seems like he'd want to get the music out there to the right people. I mean, most of the musicians he releases puts out 500 albums a year and tours 24/7, so if there's no way for a person to hear the stuff in the proper way, then ... well, yeah, obviously, arguments can go back and forth over this forever, I'm just saying that I look up the stuff on blogs and there's nothing. Look it up on soulseek and blam, honey.
Blogs are increasingly becoming a bit more reliable, thanks mainly to a few truely excellent ones leading the way (mutant-sounds, experimental etc, forgotten dreams, grown so ugly, killed in cars, etc.). Unfortunately, even those blogs don't usually have the kind of stuff I'm looking for, though they will occasionally turn me onto some new gems with, as you mentioned, descriptions!
