Music/{{Attila 2008}}, please.
Link to TRS threads in project mode here.Actually, if they're from different countries, a country identifier would be better. Like US/UK. There are two-letter codes for all countries.
In general, years work really well for disambiguating movies (which have that special release period everyone remembers when they were in theaters), well-enough for tv show, and really poorly for books and people and other things where no one will have a strong association with their release date.
Movies also get remade the most frequently, so not only is year a really good disambiguation for them, it's also the most common disambiguation we have. But that doesn't mean it's the best for non-movies! Country was actually used before year was, for cases like The Office (US) vs The Office (UK). For people, we have cases like Christopher Priest (novelist) and Christopher Priest (comics). Because who on earth is going to remember some random person's birth year?
In the case of bands, if they're both from the same country, I'd look for some other distinguishing characteristic before resorting to year. Possibly genre, or city-of-origin, or something that people are likely to remember. I wouldn't say that year won't work—it just wouldn't be the first thing I'd turn to.
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.Yeah, with bands, years are less useful since bands are often active for years if not decades. If possible then country works, and if that doesn't work then I usually see us go with genre.
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.There Should Be a Law that no two bands can have the same name.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Yeah, I'm currently working (offline) on an article for a band which shares its name with two others. And two of the bands were founded in exactly the same year! So year-disambig definitely wouldn't work for me.
Fortunately, the three bands were founded in different countries on different continents (US, Australia, and Ireland). :)

David Bowie 1947-2016Click "More" from the bar near the top of the page, then click "Wikiword". You'll get a popup which will ask how you want the title to be displayed.

I (kind of) want to create a page for the deathcore/Nu Metal/whatever band of the same name but that seems to not be possible under current circumstances. Should I name it something like Attila 2008 or something?
