Band Releases Album As Linux Kernel Module

netbuzz (955038) writes "A band called netcat is generating buzz in software circles by releasing its debut album as a Linux kernel module (among other more typical formats.) 'Are you ever listening to an album, and thinking "man, this sounds good, but I wish it crossed from user-space to kernel-space more often!" We got you covered,' the band says on its Facebook page. 'Our album is now fully playable as a loadable Linux kernel module.'"

No way...

This! I had to reload my psmouse module half way through the album. Apparently this is not so uncommon on Dell laptops. I read the source code, and it was trivial. But the very large byte array size makes this something that's generally inadvisable, precisely because you could jump somewhere into it where the audio happens to be specific byte code. I also discovered it from tweets coming out of thegrugq, etc.
