"Blood, Sweat, And No Tears"
Craig Setari

5.
Agnostic Front
"One Voice"
Roger Miret

6.
Madball
"Ball Of Destruction"
Freddy Cricien

Why is it that nearly half of what I just looked for somehow connected to Sick Of It All and/or Agnostic Front and/or the 'hardcore' guy from New Found Glory? I had no idea they were all such power players!

I tried to link Foghat to Weezer or the Yeah Y Y's but those 2 aren't on the list. How can one add? Still, this is a very ingenious way of wasting your time.

DAMN!

I was somewhat alarmed at how many bands I like are somehow linked by the self-titled album by LA Guns. Who knew Tracii Guns had links to indie rock royalty?

Hello Bloggers! I am a second year graduate student at the University of Southern California's Annenberg School for Communication in Los Angeles. For my masters thesis project, I am researching the uses and gratifications of bloggers - basically, why people go to blogs.

I would really appreciate your assistance with this project. Please take a minute to check out the survey link - http://surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=73418829968. It takes less than 2 minutes! And feel free to pass it along to all the bloggers you know and/or post the link on your blogs.

Thanks so much!

All bands pass through Tracii Guns. WTF?

Pretty cool, I got from Buffalo Springfield to Dinosaur Jr in 21 steps. You guessed it, through Tracii Guns. Also, what is that "Skull Kontrol" it appears quite a bit.

i used to do this for radio shows in college - two hours of linking bands. i also used producers and engineers, though. i wish i'd had this site then.

I knew Cannibal Corpse and Crowded House had a lot in common.

It's pretty cool but there's a few connections I tried that could be a lot shorter.

this would be SO much funnier if I could work out the connection between, say, Celine Dion and Black Sabbath...

I just linked Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society and Fleetwood Mac. How is that even possible?

skull kontrol was a short lived (two eps both on touch and go) band made up of former members of circus lupus//monorchid who are now in bands such as the wrangler brutes and red eyed legends... andy coronado and chris thomson are known for (relatively) shortlived bands... so who knows if these bands are still alive and kicking?

this site is great stuff. i've been doing stuff like this since I was in high school. and recently was put to the test linking up Napalm Death to Vanity 6, Daniel Johnston to Tiny Tim and Lil' John and the Eastside Boys to Radiohead. you can check out my laborious notes at http://www.soundsareactive.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=73
