One of the entertaining things about running this blog is that marketers seem to think it has an audience. Far be it from me to disabuse anyone of such notions, of course, but I thought they’d at least notice the cheap free ads in the sidebar and the bimonthly (if that) updates. It makes me want to wave my hand and say this is not the sales opportunity you are looking for.

A few days ago, “Jessi,” who has “been a fan of [my] blog for a while” (really? I don’t think I’ve seen you around), asked if I would check out a new band on her record label and tell her what I thought. She didn’t directly request that I put up a link — that’s not the kind of relationship that Jessi and I have — but she did suggest that I should “feel free” to do so. (Which is good, because I’d hate to be compelled to promote whatever random crap people email me.) “P.S.,” Jessi concluded, “You are hilarious. :-)” See, I was on the fence, but it’s hard to turn down a pitch from someone who appreciates your sense of humor.

Anyway, enough ragging on the friendly PR people. The group is called Feral Children, and you can download their EP for free here. As for the music itself…well, it’s not really my cup of tea, to be honest. But free is free, right? It’s only four songs; check it out.

A slice of life story from a YouTube commenter:

imbored1996: haha i had onece dreamed that i was playing outside and like fucking sephiroth comes and like fucking is trying to chop my fucking head off it was kewl!:)

EternalSailorKitsune: u had a kewl dream

imbored1996: yup it was one of the best dreams ever cuz i’m like outside and i go in my friends house and he’s outside and i notice it’s empty inside and everyone that lives in his house is outside and his lil brother tells me to get out and right when he tells me that i just see like sephiroth charging at me and i run to the back of one of the cars and he goes to the back and i got in one of the cars and come out throught the other side and he goes around fast enough so catch me on the other side. and then right when i get out he uses his sword on me but luckly i ducked and his sword hit the car and he sends the car flying with one strike and i keep on running really fast to my apartment complexes and i just keep on running and running with this running behind me and he appears in front of me and slices but all of a sudden theres this sword on the ground and it happens to be clouds swords so i quickly grab the sword and use it on him to defend myself and i could do any damage on him so i run around my apartment complexes and enter through the parking lot and i got near the dump lol and he comes flying down from the sky and wat i did is wat happened in advent children where cloud strikes the dude that becomes sephiroth and then sephiroth and his sword appear.so then this shock wave goes and all of the cars blast away and some exploded and we’re fighting in a fiery hell while the music played.before the song ended i did clouds special to kill sephiroth in advent children :)
