The music press use these kind of things from time to time to try and describe what a band sounds like, then you buy it and its totally off the mark. Are they a total waste of time, and if not what are your favourites?
One that i've heard and agreed with was
Interpol + The Czars = The National
but the rest are usually crappy.
On a related note, i vaguely remember seeing a musical recipe a few years ago possibly in Melody Maker. That was a REALLY dumb idea too.
