Duplicate Band Name

 

  • Duplicate Band Name

    Hello,
    I recently uploaded our album: Cold Fusion by Frozen Fingers. But I suppose there was already a Band named Frozen Fingers, because in our artist page there is an unknown album and a similar artist which in fact makes other music.
    What can i do? Is there a way of getting in contact with the administrator of the unknown album?
    Thank you very much,
    cheers
    Christoph

  • Who posted?

    Hi dankine,
    thank you for the link. Is there a way of finding out who posted the other album?

    Album de Frozen Fingers

    because it seems abandoned, no activity, no news,...and the one who is listening is a friend of mine. He surely thought this is our band.

    Thank you very much,
    cheers

  • Frozen Fingers Band

    Hi guys,
    sorry for bother you again. I have worked around the problem, registering our band as Frozen Fingers Band. But we don't appear on search: "Your search “Frozen Fingers Band” did not match anything on Last.fm". As the page exists:
    Frozen Fingers Band
    Any ideas on what is wrong? Or what I have to do for let us appear in the search?
    Thank you very much!
    cheers
    Christoph

    don't call yourself a different name :/

    but no, I don't know of a way to contact the other band.

    Adding a different band name isn't the way to go.

    Scrobbles from people listening to your band will still go to the shared artist page. We are working toward a way to disambiguate artists sharing the same name and provide each artist with their own page, however it's a large project and not as simple as it may seem.
