And it ain’t never going back

TOO MUCH NOISE?

"Pop music of the highest quality."

"Not just another boring band with guitars."

"A breath of fresh air in a music scene overcrowded with cookie cutter artistry."

Listen to Foxes & Hounds by THE SHARP THINGS. Free ship: BLOGAD

Yes! Great ad linking to blog reviews, the site, a "listen" page, and a shipping page. Dig, too, the blog-savvy variation in linking styles: some partial text, some single words, some full sentences!

The destination site also sizzles, richly woven with links, rhetorical styles and invitations to get involved, aka buy and/or lobby DJs. This is the most blog-savvy music ad yet.
