[Trailhead?] Danger Days

Hey guys, I stumbled upon this a few minutes ago. It appears to be a promo site for My Chemical Romances new album "Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys".

http://www.mychemicalromance.com/transmissions/


I have just started to play with it, but I found some sort of a text message by clicking the green line, and then turning the dial to 8.

I also discovered that by moving your mouse over the scrolling numbers in the orange panel, they stop. Click them in this order to access a "clean channel"

Welcome Motorbabies,

Your skills have granted you access to hijacked BLI communication frequency 4065.5. As we all know, BLI has begun expanding the Battery City borders further out into the zones, pushing everyone else further away from our few remaining resources.

It's time to let the world out there know about the world in here, and that's where you come in. We need your stories, news reports, diaries, one-act dramas, and home movies about life out in the zones. We need coverage from every area, from the wastelands and artificial forests, to the heart of Battery City itself. It doesn't matter where you live, we just need to know how you're living.

We will compile the best of your stories and patch them through, as many as we can before BLI drops the "X" on us. Let's show everyone what life is like under the shadow of Better Living Industries, art will be our weapon.

Now we've already got enough heat on us, so no using music or images that you don't own the rights to. We're not looking for some slick Fact News or Brand Land production, we're just looking for the truth.


Is there some background anywhere to this? Who's BLI and what videos do they want?

Shocked
ummmmk

Interesting stuff. Went to the transmissions page and started playing with the different channels and so forth... Some very strange stuff in there.... Seems when you switch it changes the dial for you then clicking the dial skips to the next (transmission) ... Everything from laser scissors to some guy on a low band freq talking about no lights and they took everyone...

Not a huge fan of the band per say but I watched this thing for TWO HOURS...

Def going to be checking back into this one..

(OH quick note one channel is a loop sounds like morris code but didn't have time to jot it down.. maybe something?)

Warning some of these are like radio feedback and can suddenly get VERY loud with out warning..

I'm taking video footage of all the channels. There is a ridiculous amount of content on each one. I'll post them all when I've finished, which should be later tonight (gotta break for dinner & socializing).

I'd be ecstatic if this turns out to be an ARG. MCR is my fave band. Smile

UPDATE 10:23PM: Will not have the time to finish taking the vids tonight. It will have to be tomorrow. The first two are finished, however.

It should also be noted that BL/ind has a website: http://betterlivingindustries.com/

Japanese & English text/content.

Looks like I'll have to make a youtube to host these screencasts I took. Can't seem to attach the file (iz an unforum noob).

Is there still any interest?
