We want the Cod!

Yo folkeroonies! Nathaniel Cod Here and I have just been informed that there is some confusion about who, and what the CODs are! Well why dont you just leeeeet me tell yous guys!

The Cods are the fan-branch of Blinded By View Productions, as well as a running nickname for the members, supporters and beligerent fish like stuffed chew toys of that same company. That means that I am a cod, that Yeshe and Tara are Cods, that our marketing team are cods, and that you, brave listeners are Cods as well!

That leads us to our founder and inspiration, Jetsunma! Is she a cod as well? Does this apply to her? Your questions, noble friends, are easily answered; Jetsunma is both a Cod and more than a cod, she is, as we all like to say the CodDess!

Now, some of you may wnat history- how did this come about?

Well it all started on a cold day in some month back when....

Like fallen scooba nickers, floating away from their useful local, we the - folks at BBV were in a band. We were lacking a name for this crew, and so one day in a fit o'..erm..somthing...we decided we would name ourselves the COGS.

Now we had a long and complex backround for the COG name and it became a rediculously long running inside joke. One day however as we spoke of our COGlyness, Jetsunma overheard and believed us to hove Said the word COD. This was very funny to as all.

Things did not catch on until some time later as we we're working on a song called Interdimensional Diementia - in an as yet unreleased version there is a line "Load Cod Into Warp Nacel" - a refrence of obscure and diverse a nature if ever there was one.

After that second mention of the word things just went....upstream.

Soon we had a mascot, a shark with a fish in his pocket - both of whom we nicknamed "Cod".

After that we snuck a cod into the CD booklet, and are now working on hiding them in other locations of varrying and wild nature. Keep your eyes peeled.

That made me laugh! Almost sprayed my computer with coffee.
