World Premiere - Freidiohead Does Radiohead

By some strange coincidence the newly formed Rock Band group Freidiohead was secretly recorded playing Radiohead's Creep. The group's sordid history stretches back all the way to last Friday when they realized their mutual love for video games and rock music. This plus a desire not to spend time together playing actual instruments helped initially form the band "ace" coined by singer Kevin Freitas out of an acute laziness for not wanting to type more letters via the video game controller.

Since their humble beginning in AP's attic, bass player Fergy Ferg was replaced for his lack of enthusiasm by sleeper air funk slap bassist Frinklin and, thus, "ace" became Freidiohead. The following is the first ever recording of them released to the wild and features "Crazy Fingers" Cassioposa on the guitar, "ASAP" AP on sticks, "The Slapper" Frinklin on bass, and front man KFrei on vocals.

Thanks for smuggling out the recording and for the commentary ensie! ;)

The sights and sounds of simmering sausage were rudely interrupted by a phone call from our record label this morning. It seems they are displeased that we have less fans than we have bootlegs in circulation. I was also reminded of our lack of profitability to this point. To make it up to them, we may have to do a live webcast in the coming weeks. Should we refuse, there could be litigation (in which case, I gave them all of Ensie's contact info, since she was clearly the one bootlegging our material).

HEY!! There was no lack of enthusiasm, there were prior family commitments! I object to this outrageous slander on Fergy Ferg's behalf as it was my family that dragged him away.

If the record label does not pursue litigation Ferguson LTD, Fergy Ferg's representation, may be forced to seek counsel of our own! Stop the lies and let's get ready to Rock!

All this intraband squabbling is for the birds. I can't work like this!

Expect a call from my lawyers!!!!!!!! I can't believe I've been replaced already! Way to have my back baby (comment from Angela above). One family commitment and I get slandered like this. Wait until I get you on the mountain again buddy boy!!!!! :-)

You can't be replaced, baby! They just had some hack stand in for you.

Freidiohead is nothing without Fergy Ferg and they know it! That's why the libelous language. They're lashing out because of their frustration at the loss of such talent, if only for one night!

I think Kevin sums it all up best at the end of this track. "Believe me, it doesn't matter." And how. I just don't know if we should be that honest with the public just yet. Our (future) fans may pick up on such complacency.

Hack? Stand-in? Whatever...

Ferg is yesterday's news. I am the future.

Until I go solo anyway...

I have to say I'm a huge fan of the new bass player. He's dreamy.

See! Fergy Ferg is dedicated to the group, missing only one performance for prior and unavoidable family commitments. The subpar stand-in already thinks he's the star and is planning to defect for a solo career! A true Freidiohead knows that it's the band as a whole, not the individual members, which make it the greatest of its kind.

Well, not so much a solo career, more like a side project. I'm planning on doing a long form improvisational piece called "Jazz Odyssey".

Derek Smalls is my idol.

Oh, look at him back peddle ladies and gentleman! Too late, Fake Bass Frinklin, we're on to you and your schemes! You should be ashamed using such an innovative and artistic group for your own personal gain! Shame, shame! (accompanied by much disappointed head shaking)

I will have to observe this odd conglomeration of talent.
