This week in Rock Band, hold onto your brains, it's a zombie invasion! White Zombie, that is, who bring us a couple of tracks. Seems like Harmonix are happy to jump onto the undead bandwagon like so many other games these days. Joining the group are Turbonegro, the band who's name might be considered offensive if they weren't Norwegian. So I guess this week's DLC is fairly black and white (is that joke politically correct? I'm not sure). There's no discount for buying in bulk though, so each song will set you back 160 MSP ($2).
Here's what's on offer:
White Zombie - Black Sunshine
White Zombie - More Human Than Human
Turbonegro - Wasted Again
Note: Click on any song for expert drum videos.
After all the good releases recently, I knew that the week would come when we went back to stuff I had no interest in, and that week is now. So, as if you hadn't guessed, I skipped all of these songs. They look like they might be kind of fun to play, but I just don't want to listen to them. It shouldn't be long before we get some more decent tracks though.
Also this week, Wii owners get a chance to play seven songs from Nirvana's album, Nevermind. Unfortunately, the best two (as far as I'm concerned) are mysteriously absent, but as I've already been through this before though, I won't waste your time talking about it again. Check here if you want the info.
In other Rock Band news, Harmonix and MTV Games have announced plans to help sick and injured children by donating a minimum of $50,000 to the Starlight Children's foundation. Along with the money, they will also be providing 650 Rock Band kits to hospitals associated with the foundation. As if this wasn't enough, Starlight children will be given the chance to attend their Great Escape events, in which they can meet the developers and get a behind-the-scenes look at the game. Since it's already been established that rhythm games can cure disease, we may find some of these unfortunate kids on the mend a little quicker than expected.
