I'm using "new" in the sense of "new to me". For example, there's a New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) act called Satan that I had never heard of until I was browsing Bandcamp and saw they had a new album called Cruel Magic. They aren't new, but they're new to me -- and they kick ass.

Likewise, there's this Japanese pianist named Hiromi Uehara. She's been performing and recording for at least 15 years, and has worked with artists like Chick Corea, but I hadn't heard of her until this morning. She just dropped an album called Spectrum, and it's absofuckinlutely brilliant. If I didn't make a point of looking for new music, I'd still be missing out.
