I thought about making a route through Summoning, but this is an even better solution.
I think you should specify which Bethlehem you meant, there is one from Japan.

What are those Chinese bands? I can't see 唐朝 in similar bands for Ария.

How do you see bands that have less than 3 votes? I click "See more" and can't see any Chinese bands in similar artists for Ария.
I think someone here wanted to make a rule not to use similar artists with less than 3 votes.

Ah, that's how you do it, I see now. This is a little bit cheaty since you can add the artist yourself. Your path doesn't seem far-fetched though, but I think this rule of at least 3 votes would be beneficial.

That seems self-defeatist, plus it would suck the fun out of it for the individual, if the person would actually do that.

Want to keep this thread going, since it is a fun way to spend a few minutes at work. Therefore, pretending the last suggestion never happened. Maybe we can stick to bands that actually have a real-deal similar artist listed?

And on that note:

Kelly Simonz's Blind Faith - Paganizer

Do you mean we should ban sub-3 similar artists or allow them? I assume you meant the former, so:

Kelly Simonz's Blind Faith->Galneryus->DragonForce->Children of Bodom->Kalmah->Amon Amarth->Unleashed->Entombed->Paganizer

Tuomas Holopainen->Gutalax

Are we allowed to look at bands besides top 20? I was never clear on that. Whenever I play this on my own I choose to look at top 20 only. More challenging but also easier to take in my options.
Dystopia > California Love > Gehenna > Bathory > Moonsorrow > Аркона > Dalriada > Mägo de Oz > Patricia Tapia KHY

I also got the previous challenge down by 4, but damn, that one's tough.
Tuomas Holopainen > Nightwish > Therion > Amorphis > Dark Tranquillity > At the Gates > Carcass > Impetigo > Mortician > Torsofuck > Cock and Ball Torture > Gutalax

Get me from one band I really hate to another:
Rainfall > Semargl

Here's one for Varg Vikernes -> Jesus

Varg Vikernes was in Mayhem. Mayhem had an intro done by Conrad Schnitzler of Tangerine Dream. Christopher Franke of Tangerine Dream did the score for Babylon 5. Bruce Boxleitner of Babylon 5 was in Tron with Jeff Bridges. Jeff Bridges was The Dude in The Big Lebowski playing competitive bowling and in one of the rival teams was... Jesus.

Shame that you went for Jesus when God was there all along waiting for it. And here I was hoping for the Johnny Mnemonic Jesus in the flesh of Dolph.

Well, you still need at least 3 votes. It would be pretty detrimental to smaller bands to limit similarity to only top 20 similar bands.
I think such transitions are OK as long as they are at least a little bit plausible.

Glad I managed to come up with two of the most non-trivial endpoints. :)

Can I cheat by picking random bands?

Iron Maiden -> IA-58 Pucará

I remember a thread like this from quite a while back. I was surprised how quickly you could connect bands that are almost completely opposite in every way.



It's much easier to connect bands from different genres, you just need to go more or less extreme on the genres. For the example above, you go from gothic/atmospheric rock -> gothic metal -> doom/death -> death -> brutal death. But for example, two speed metal bands, you are completely blind unless you know the particularities of the sound of each band
