Why I'm now only listening to Kerrang!

So it's finally happened, the final death of real music is here and we can seemingly do nothing about it.

You will recall, dear readers (and I'm hoping I have readers here) that I dislike intensely the... and I can barely even bring myself to write the words here... Crazy Frog ringtone that the bastards at Jamster (I hope they all burn in hell) keep ramming down the throat of every sane person in the world. If their adverts aren't saturating satelite and cable television enough they've now started to appear on websites left, right and centre with an annoying Flash banner ad that plays the infernal tune at you whether you want it to or not. Damn you you foul beings from the depths of Hades!!

Anyway, as I was saying, all the above is currently ongoing as is the release and subsequently chart-topping Crazy Frog/Axel F single. A song that has now ruined for me the Beverly Hills Cop movies and also has caused my gorgeous girly to waste £3 on a new ringtone for her phone because she had Axel F as her ringtone and now that the fucking amphibian has hijacked the tune she can't have because everyone will think thats what it is. The Frog kept bands like Coldplay from the number one spot soley because Jamster (cunts) have spent the budget of a small country plugging this infernal song.

As a result I now have either Kerrang 105.2 playing in the car or I plug in my iPod (when it's charged) so I don't have to listen to any station that might feel the need to play the current number one. I reckon in about a month or two it might be safe to tune into another station but until then I'm taking no chances.

Anyway, rant over and done with I'll leave you with this that I've made just because I've been watching far too much 24 lately.
