I do so love it when I come across something local that’s freaky enough to make the cut on Freaky Friday. And let me tell you lovers of weird shit, I cut no corners on today’s entry. To the contrary, this actually bounced a great entry from the ’70s that I’m now saving for next week! Today’s freak out comes courtesy of the Sparky the Dog project STD for the Holidays. This year, they chose the sorely overlooked Ides of March to celebrate with a compilation of themed songs. Apparently, St. Patrick’s Day and Valentine’s Day were briefly considered but finally rejected, “Because there are already too many goddamned songs about love and booze, ” as project lead Soapy Argyle explains. The criteria for inclusion were simple: anyone who submitted was included. The results include some fun, let-your-hair-down moments from bands such as the Hollyfelds and deadbubbles, but the real gems come from, as Argyle explains, “Humans who you’d never expect to record anything ever,” such as Professor Falcon, a PhDed archaelogist who contributes the mind-bending puppet-metal clip found after the jump. Watch it, then grab the whole comp, for free!, by going to the STD for the Holidays homepage.
