Of course, Not Lame is fantastic but also quite focused. And quite a bit more than its founder, I believe.

For general purposes, I find the following (in conjunction w/ allmusic.com & amazons) the best.

http://rateyourmusic.com/

Not much of great writing or news but reviews by different people and viewpoints which is always good, I suppose.

Great writing and news I usually find on Classic Rock Magazine. But they're reasonably focused, too.

my favorite site is David Lowery's (lead singer of Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven): http://300songs.com/

I like to think my own (record reviews with an intensely personal spin) site is pretty cool as well: http://mylifeinreview.net

If a good site for music is what you're looking for, check out guitars101.com. It's a great site not just because it's geared towards musicians, but for the forums specifically set for music discussion. My personal favourite though, are the video & audio bootleg forums. They even have a separate forum dedicated strictly towards Elvis boots & one for Van Halen boots. TONS of stuff, most of it 70s & 80s concerts! I've been a member since 2007 & I am still surprised by hidden gems on the forums! Membership is free & you can even meet other musicians & collaborate with them! Definitely my pick for best site!

While far from essential reading, it's funny:
