Yes, the search field is tnot working. I Type the name of the band, so I press "enter", but then redirect to the main page of MMA.

For now, the search field is working like this:

Enter the band name (or the first letters of the band name)
Select the band name in the drop down list that will appear bellow the search box by clicking on it (or by using the arrows keys on your keyboard and press enter)

In a very near future, the ENTER key will do an overall search over the website and a result page (� la Google) will be displayed instead of just refreshing the home page.

Thanks

I like it as it is now, this function.

I like it to be implemented the possibility to search for albums.

The next step will be to implement Google site search. The search box (with band name auto-complete) will continue to work like it is right now. But there will also be a way to search the entire site (including albums)

I like this version a lot too, similar to last.fm, where you can type in a keyword and a list of band, album, song, and tag names appear in a short drop down list. However if you want to search for something anyways you just hit enter after putting in your key words.

Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want.
