It’s hard to believe but some musicians out there are in more bands than Jack White. BandToBand.com has created a unique web site to “map the Rock and Roll Genome.” It’s like the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but with Slash and Dave Grohl.
Bands have a tendency to share band members from time to time and as a result it is not difficult to construct a simple "family tree" based upon the interrelationship of band members. We at BandToBand.com decided to find out how large this extended tree is. Every band in our list is connected to every other band based upon this family tree principle.

I'm your reasoned alibis
I'm inside, open your eyes
I'm you
Sad but true
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master
Justice Is Lost
Justice Is Raped
Justice Is Gone
Pulling Your Strings
Justice Is Done
Seeking No Truth
Winning Is All
Find it So Grim
So True
So Real
Yeah, Everyone's got to have the sickness
'Cause everyone seems to need the cure
And with dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave
And my ties are severed clean
Less I have the more I gain
Off the beaten path I reign
There isn't that much separation in Metallica songs either, you could probably find some relatedness between them all.
Anybody find one with more connections then The Secret Police?
