K, I've also added bandcamp embedding functionality, but it's a little trickier so READ CAREFULLY.

In between the [bandcamp] tag, you'll need to either put something in this form:

track=sometracknumberhere

or this form

album=somealbumnumberhere

Which of these you use will be dependent on the embed code that bandcamp gives you. There's no easy way to grab a track or album ID from bandcamp, so you have to choose the "share/embed" button, then embed this album/track. That will give you options to choose the size, just choose one since they won't actually matter. Then you'll get some code to copy and paste. Copy and paste it somewhere random/notepad, since we'll be using it to extract the info we need. It should give you something like this:

<iframe style="border: 0; width: 350px; height: 470px;" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=221601013/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/notracklist=true/transparent=true/" seamless><a href="http://chanes.bandcamp.com/album/take-with">take with by chanes</a></iframe>

In that source link you'll see a portion that either says "track=somenumber" or "album=somenumber", in the example above it's bolded. You just need to copy that bit and put that in between the [bandcamp] tags. Then that's it, post it and enjoy a direct bandcamp player!

Example:

[bandcamp]album=8526365[/bandcamp]
