Haystack.com - Music Powered by People

Haystack is for fans of the alternative music scene; those interested in the bands that haven't (yet, or likely never will) hit the Top 40. They cover almost all genres, but mostly focus on Indy rock, hip hop, and metal more than American Idol type fare.

The site is hip, funky and replete with free music. You can find music from the playlists of friends or "tastemakers", you can listen to interviews of bands interviewing fellow bands, you can create your own playlist, you can watch videos, and you can add yourself as a new artist. They even have the Haystack team playlist to hear or the "songs people are currently talking about."
