I have 4 primary ways:

Pitchfork (never read reviews just get names)
Friends
Genuis recs on iTunes/amazon/other downloading sites
Custom stations on iHeart/pandora

how do you all find lesser known music to listen to?

Blogs mostly. I've discovered some good bands live after seeing them open for someone else.

And, for me, I read the reviews on amazon mostly for comedic value, but there are a lot of good recommendations on there that have been great additions to my collection.

Such as "They sound like such and such", or, "If you like such and such, you'll love this album..."
