Holy awesome shit!
Didn't think I'd squeeze in another post today, but this is WAY too good.
Arthur Magazine — the freaky deeky San Francisco-based music rag — recently interviewed Sully from Boston dude-rockers Godsmack. It's about the use of the band's music in military recruitment ads. Be sure to read it all the way through.
PS: Godsmack's latest crapsterpiece debuted at #1. Who the fuck is buying records in this country, anyway?
This is fucking unreal awesome.
I've gotta admit, I didn't read it initially because I've developed a gag reflex when I hear those 90's era meaningless two-word-hybrid band names (ie. Godsmack, Sugarsmack, Coldplay, Flickerstick, Slowdive, etc. etfc.), but I'm really really glad I read that.

"On the other hand- Maybe if the military had been using Devendra Banhart songs in their ads, and had gotten a lot of free-folk fans to join the military, their wouldn’t be as many civilian casualties and cases of sexual harassment."
That's my favorite comment. HA!

That is indeed awesome.
Let your free flag fly, man! Occupation? It's all good!
