I am not turning off my ad block just to see porn. That's what xtube is for.

I just clicked on it, and it takes you to Car Bomb's bandcamp page. Some kind of metal with gurgling vocals.

Same here, but this banner was on the top of every page for at least three weeks. No number of refreshs sent it away, and after so long of looking at scantily covered flesh-colored blueberries protruding from some random woman's chest, it was revolting. |
Was that the ad for the one Panther album or something? It was awful

I sometimes click on them when it's for bands (that's how I discovered Long Distance Calling), but since there was a ridiculous ad with some offensively dressed female that just hurt my eyes, I've been using ad block.

Did anyone else see the banner with the moving shapes on the home page? What was that? No words, just moving shapes (with trails behind them usually). I couldn't stop looking at it; it's gone now though.
