Anybody tried this site? You give it a song then it plays a whole load of other things you may like. Works really well for me!

I entered Pavement. Then it just sat there saying "Searching the Music Genome Project" for a long time. I'll let you know if that every changes.

Update: It finally came back and said, "I'm sorry, I had a small problem while looking for that music. It's my fault.

Not only did it not find my favorite band, but it has bad grammer. It should have said, "I'm sorry. I had a small problem while looking for the greatest band of all time. I suck and should be destroyed."

Nice. I typed in "Faith No More"

Edit: so far I only like the actual Faith no More songs and not the ones it pics in between...

 

[aiex]

just gotta add, after much playing it seams like you do need to guide it with a 'i like this' or 'i hate this' every now and again. Still loving it though!

Bleh. Nothing for They Might Be Giants, either.
Die, Pandora, die.
Hm, I hit "Try Again" and it asking if it was an artist or song, so it seems to have found them.

Awesome...do you like Tomahawk, Fantomas, Mr. Bungle, etc??? I just saw Fantomas last May and they were AMAZING!!!

I love all of the Patton bands.

It found Pavement when I re-tried as well.

Another great page, not to derail this thread though, is http://www.last.fm
its completely free, and keeps a record of everything you listen to, and will make suggestions to you based on that. My personal last.fm page is in my sig, and there is no referral, as there is nothing to gain from having it, so don't be afraid to click it

OK now they just crossed the line. I picked Faith No More and they are now playing Bon Jovi. This thing is retarded.

 

[MBentz]

Not bad.

Right now they are playing "Woodpecker From Mars" (From Epic, but good), also "Easy" and "Ashes to Ashes". Not too bad but nothing from Angledust yet (Angledust is a masterpiece IMO)

I think that's the point, it helps you discover new music.
