genre /subgenre

In ID3tag Version 2 you can select more than one genre for a track.

What i would like do to is that:
tagging the track with e.g. 3 genres:
1. Rock
2. Metal
3. Deathmetal
(in this order)

Then it would be nice if i could create a node "genre" that displays the first genres (in my example "Rock").
I click on "Rock" then the 2. genre is displayed.
I click on "Metal" and so on until the last genre is found and than the artists are displayed.

Is something like that or similar possible?

You could use your 3 Custom fields in Media Monkey.

I wouldn't want to sacrifice them all for this though. I use my Custom 3 field that I have called "Description" I use it as a keyword search field for things like decade, primary genre etc.
I have a Magic Node set-up to list these too.
Description\<Description>\<Album Artist>

Your solutions sounds interesting.
Can you give me the Code for the Magic Node?

It's the last bold line in my post above.

If it's the Magic Nodes Script itself your after, try here:
