i'm experience the same thing as shawn stnicky, though i think i might give an example; to progress further development.

i put in "mannheim" and "power electronics" only one ressult "https://tescogermany.bandcamp.com/album/position-parall-le"
shows up,

the label that's located in manheim germany has many more realeases with does two taggs.

for example:
"https://tescogermany.bandcamp.com/album/manifest-as-teeraal-r-um-pheynix"
and
"https://tescogermany.bandcamp.com/album/mardr-md-d-dsstr-m"
to just mention a few.

theory: could it be so, that when you parse each tag for correlation, that you only get say 500+ results of each and well not all, and therefore some times when you look for something specific, simply wont find it with this app?

This is awesome. Would love a feature to sort by date. I think bandcamp might support this already so it might not be difficult.

i.e. https://bandcamp.com/tag/rock?sort_field=date

Didn't return results for very common tags. I was able to find items with both tags whereas the extension could not.

Seems useful, but search results are unreliable. For example, search for 'creative commons' with 'electronic' yields no results, while I have many positions in my library tagged with these two tags, so I know for a fact that they exist :)

Creator's approach is commendable (bandcamp cataloguing and search SUCKS and we know it - anything that lets us search easier is great), but probably it's impossible to implement a reliable multi-tag search while bandcamp doesn't support it.

[Edit], okay, so I was wrong on this one. Your search works okay - I've written my search tool in python, ant the results are the same as yours. The problem is, Bandcamp doesn't return all possible hits, just first 400 albums (not even creators...) (5*8*10) by date or popularity.

Another thing Bandcamp did wrong when it comes to search... Changing my review from 3 to 5 stars.
