Website that clustered movie/band recommendations?

What was that wesbite that gave you clustered movie and band recommendations?

A few months ago, someone here linked to a website where you typed in a name of a band, and it gave you a really cool window where similar bands were clustered with the original band. Bands that were the most similar to the original were clustered right near or on top of the original one. Bands that were less similar were farther away. There was a parallel site for movies, and there may have been one for books too. I recall it being astonishingly accurate at predicting other things I would like.

I have read this post as well as a bunch of the other music and movie rec threads, to no avail.

Sorry, my google-fu is weak!
