Muy cool. Not only is it interesting taxonomically and musically, but it’s also apparently an exercise in Flash masochism. Well, not masochism, really. Just creakyness.

Also, this reminds me of a cartoon history of rock music that I saw in the New Yorker a few years ago when Michelob was running a series of rock-history-theme beer commercials.
