note!

because you are using internet explorer, you are getting the crappy, default version of the exempli gratia myspace. if you upgraded to firefox and installed the adblock plus extension, you would be able to see the glorious version. without ads, even.

for a taste of what it looks like, visit exempli.com.

stop using internet explorer. stop getting viruses and start seeing web sites how they're supposed to be seen. trust us, we tested this myspace page in the newest mac versions of firefox, safari, camino, opera, omniweb, netscape, flock, icab, and internet explorer as well as pc versions of firefox and internet explorer and the only browser that couldn't display it properly was IE. that's because it sucks. we refuse to support it.

please take a moment to read this:

as you may know, myspace is now a subsidiary company of fox news corporation. as a strongly political band, it is hard to reconcile our need to "get the message out" and our use of a corporate-owned website that supports beliefs that we cannot support. namely, the love of profit over all else. therefore, now that we have 5000 friends, we have redesigned our myspace page to minimize the number of ads that are shown (all of our band links go to our website or a good music website, not myspace's, for example). as we browse myspace, we block all revenue-generating ads by using firefox and the adblock plus extension. if everyone that browsed our myspace started using this browser combination and told their friends about it, soon, myspace would not be making any money for the fascists that now own it. this is our goal.

 

if you agree with our goals or just like our music, please send us a message, add us as a friend, forward us to a friend, or make us your favorite. if not, you can hang out with fox news corporation all you want or even block us. i hope your choice makes the world better.
