Just this week I was wishing Supersonic was in RB.

Talking Heads!

That's all I have to say. I'm even more excited because I still get them on Thursday! Hell yeah! Thursday is the best day of the week! Fuck that. Thursday's the best day of the month.

In for Supersonic, Guerilla Radio, Town Called Malice and And She Was and Once In A Lifetime. Just bought some points, so I should be good to go (I guess it'd be asking too much to hope these get added to the pepsi promo )

That's a good looking TH pack, pretty much my top-5 TH songs, except maybe Heaven...

No "Girlfriend Is Better"? Looks like somebody stopped making sense.

Then you know who Talking Heads are, or at least have heard one of their songs.

I'll definitely get "Once in a Lifetime" and maybe "And She Was" and "Take Me To The River". ("Life During Wartime", "(Nothing But) Flowers", "Wild Wild Life", and "Burning Down the House" would've been instant purchasers, had they been offered.)

Guerrilla Radio - yes please!

I recognized Bat Country after a minute or two of listening to it - definitely gonna get that one.

Oasis - pass. Not a bad song, just doesn't do much for me, particularly this live version I just listened to (which is the one I assume they're using).

The Jam - Going Underground didn't do anything for me, but I did like Town Called Malice. I'll pick that one up.

Talking Heads - I'll take the whole pack. Great stuff.

Every time Activision puts out a new Guitar Hero we get our hopes up for something cool from HMX and what they end up announcing is never that cool.

If I didn't break my RB2 bass pedal before, Bat Country should do the trick.

Ha. I don't think it'll exactly grip the world at large by the lapels and turn them away from GH5, but I really do think this is one of the best weeks of DLC they've ever had.

The press release said GnR and Franz Ferdinand was supposed to be in there too... am I missing something? What tracks are being released by those bands?

What you're missing is that is says those artists for Rock Band Unplugged (PSP).

Crosseyed and Painless has some great guitar parts, David Byrne gets pretty creative.

It better just be some Chinese Democracy tracks for the PSP version too, or else people will probably storm the HMX offices for not offering the "classic" GNR tunes for the REAL game....

Ugh - f'ing PSP! I'd love to see Appetite for Destruction or Use Your Illusion as DLC albums.
