you may or may not want to do this but i have an idea. there should be a thing on the page that says all the related artists of which artist you are currently viewing the page for. you may not want to do this because it could take a  while to do this because of the amount of bands on this site. if this is a good idea please let me know

I personally like the idea and would like to see it implemented one day. However there are a lot of other matters that need sorting on the site first, so I can't see this happening in the near future. It is a good idea though and I will bring it to the other admins for discussion. Thumbs Up

Yes it certainly is a good idea. I would have to be implemented to the form we use when we add an artist. RYM has a similar feature and it�s really helpful...

Encyclopaedia Metallum already has this feature and voted on by users.

Here's Limbonic Art as an example: http://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Limbonic_Art/862

^But that�s a whole other feature (which is equally brilliant thoughThumbs Up).
 
So basically we have two new features that we could suggest to Max and Graphix:
 
A related artists feature: Artists that in some way (not necessarily musically) are related to the artist in question. Either by shared members or maybe split releases.
 
...and then a similar artists feature which would be for artists that are musically similar to said artist. This feature would have be be voted on by the members of the site though.
