See bug 786297 for steps to reproduce the problem.

The site has an error in the script that generates the page for
playing the song (when clicking said link).  The whole MP3
contents is injected into the page which makes the browser try
to render it as HTML which leads to extremely bad performance
(hang) in Firefox.

The problem also occurs in Chrome, but it seems to render the
binary data without performance problems.
Issue still exists. It looks like they stopped providing MP3 files though, most "check this out" articles are links to streams like Soundcloud.
