My methods:
1) MTV-U, which is a really annoying channel that they play on TVs in college cafeterias, rec centers, and pretty much any place students spend their time on campus. It seems that it's a testing-ground for music before it goes "big."
2) Listen to the radio right before rush hour. Stations tend to play new cuts during this time (or at least they do here in Lexington). It also seems that new singles get played on "specialty" radio stations (like an alternative rock station or a rap station) before they get played on your typical pop station.
3) Openers at shows. For example, Story of the Year opened up for Linkin Park's Meteora tour, and later that year they had some "hits."
