Six (or more) Degrees of Kevin Bacon's rock band by Celina

June 18th, 2006 5:26 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose two highly contrasting bands/musicians/composers. Go to allmusic.com, and start on the page of the first - explore "similar artists" until you reach the second. To prove your achievment, list all artists in the chain from the first to the second.

I went from the first artist I ever bought an album from, David Bowie, to the last artist I bought an album from, Ladytron.

David Bowie (Rock) -> Ladytron (Electronica)
  • David Bowie
  • Iggy Pop
  • New York Dolls
  • The Runaways
  • Bikini Kill
  • The Butchies
  • Le Tigre
  • Peaches
  • Chicks on Speed
  • Ladytron


However, I discovered there was also another Ladytron that existed that was (is?) directly related to David Bowie:
Ladytron - Genre: Rock

Not to be confused with the alt-dance band of the same name, this Ladytron is a kin to the British glam rock movement of the early '70s, influenced by such groundbreakers as David Bowie, T. Rex, and Roxy Music. Comprised mostly of members from other bands, such as Brother JT & Vibrolux and the Photon Band, Ladytron (which was titled after a song from Roxy Music's classic 1972 self-titled debut) signed on to the Shimmy Disc/Knitting Factory label, issuing a critically acclaimed self-titled debut in February of 2000.

I think it's funny that you had to go through Peaches to get to Ladytron.

I kept getting stuck in the middle. Ladytron would lead to an artist but that same artist wouldn't lead to Ladytron. After reading other people's results with this, I was happy it only took me about 20 minutes.
