Monster Radio RX 93.1 has paired up with advertising agency DM9JaymeSyfu (based in Manila in the Philippines) to bring you this series of memorable print ads. The slogan of their campaign is "Beware of last song syndrome" and let's face it, we've all been there at one point or another. Everyone gets an undesirable song (Journey's 'Don't Stop Believing,' Prince's 'Kiss,' etc.) stuck in our noodle that you just can't seem to shake.
These Monster Radio ads take that feeling to the extreme by showing characters with their head exploding, ears bleeding and throwing up. Careful, if you listen to Monster Radio you just might pick up a catchy tune or two.
