Beatallica: Cease And Desist

Sony Music has shut down Beatallica, all their music downloads, and their websites. Beatallica performs parodies of Beatle songs done in the style of Metallica. I love this stuff.

It is no surprise that those killjoys at Sony wanted this music off the net. They want to be able to use The Beatles music to sell sneakers and detergent. This could dilute that??

Tunes like Hey Dude, Leper Madonna, I want to choke your band, and A Garage Dayz Night are clearly parodies, and should be allowed.

An online petition has been started (if you believe in petitions) at http://www.petitiononline.com/p1gp0g/petition.html
