Now ... If you've been paying attention to the lively debate (i.e bitchfest) that's hijacked Crossfade since Friday, you'll know that Forward Motion Records CEO and Dreaming in Stereo frontman Fernando Perdomo thinks noise music is crap. But he also kinda sorta doesn't think noise is crap.

Additionally, you'll know that Perdomo is extremely prolific. A couple of weeks ago, his band released its new single "Home." And this weekend, he formed a new experimental quartet -- The Emperor's New Clothes -- and released a new music video entitled "Feelings (Pt. Four of the Thrillogy Trilogy."

Of course, the latter effort is meant as parody. But if you ask the Crossfade crew, "Feelings" might be Perdomo's best single in years. Just see the cut to vote for your fave Fernando moment.
