Pandora/Music Genome Project

I tried it out just now and i can say i wasn't impressed at all.

I used the Fall as the basis for my search and ended up getting songs from such craptastic artists like neutral milk Hotel and the decemberists. bands that suck and don't even have anything in common with the fall.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I know the Fall is nowhere similar to any of the bands they listed as similar. I personally will stick to record store diving then relying on a indie hipsterism tool like this pandora thing is that just spews results back full of indie crap if the band you entered is affiliated with punk in any way or if you enter a metal band like Arsis, you get crap like Killswitch engage and norma jean.

Pandora seems like a tool made for people who really haven't expanded there musical base outside of stuff found at your local megastores or hipster sites like pitchfork.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
