The best way to discover music nowadays is RateYourMusic. I go to an album I like, read a couple reviews to find like-minded people and check out their profiles. They often have lists with their favorite albums.

The album chart queries are also incredible. The site has a very detailed system of genres and descriptors so you can find exactly what you want.

my method is just internet/local radio stations ( there are many ) and browsing the lineups at venues near me

simple, very little time investment required and avoids most modern fuckery

Audiotree has turned me on to several of my favorite bands as of late. Low hit rate (I probably only care for 5% of the music they feature at most) but those couple bands have been worth sifting through the rest.
