Bulk Browse Import FAST · 193k bands · ~30 min

Uses the Metal Archives browse JSON API (~400 requests, 4-7 s apart) to import name, country, genres, status for every band — no per-band page scraping. Run this first to seed the database, then use the detail scraper below to enrich records.

Enrich from DB DETAIL · bio · members · albums

Queries the DB for bands with no bio yet and enriches them one by one with full detail data (bio, members, albums, tracklists, social links, images). Runs at ~8-12s per band to stay polite.
