Heard Our Lady Peace on XM this morning and it got me thinking about "one hit wonders" and here's an alternative pack I'd like to see from the 90s:
New Radicals - You Get What You Give
Our Lady Peace - Superman's Dead
Harvey Danger - Flagpole Sitta
Semisonic - Closing Time
Blind Melon - No Rain
Nixons - Sister
You know, as a start
I'm sure I can come up with many more if I thought about it or searched.
Also, another guilty pleasure:
Bryan Adams - Summer of '69
New Radicals - You Get What You Give
Our Lady Peace - Superman's Dead
Harvey Danger - Flagpole Sitta
Semisonic - Closing Time
Blind Melon - No Rain
Nixons - Sister

I don't consider OLP a one hit wonder...but great list. : )

Here is the new RR trailer. I guess this gives a glimpse to master DLC.

Yeah, I don't really either. Saw them play in OKC on some rooftop back in 95 or 96 and have followed since. But I had to put them on the list and I think most people only know one or two from them at all. I can swap them out for 4 Non-Blondes or Right Said Fred if you'd prefer

Spin Doctors - Two Princes
Green Day (obviously not a one hit wonder) - Longview
Cracker - Get off This
Deep Blue Something - Breakfast at Tiffanys
James - Laid
Lemonheads - Mrs Robinson
TMBG - Birdhouse in your Soul

Up here in Canada, OUR LADY PEACE are definitely NOT considered to be One Hit Wonders... They've been going strong up here YEARS with at least an album worth of hits
I'd love to see some OLP though.
On the one hit wonder front, I'd love to see some Spin Doctors, Gin Blossoms and Semisonic (says the guy who has all records from the above bands and enjoys most of their catalogues and has seen all of them live...)

Anyone watch Metal Mania on VH1?
99% of what they show needs to be playable on these silly plastic instruments.
Some bands that come to mind are
WASP - Love Child
Anthrax - Got The Time
Ozzy - Shot in the Dark
There is just not enough early metal masters material in these games for me yet.

I don't think anyone posted this yet but this is Rock Revolution's trailer for the Wii and DS:

With all the focus on the drums I'm trying to at least keep an open mind to it and give it a try.

I honestly have no idea where to post this bit of news, so I came here...
Activision Trademarks Guitar Hero Modern Hits

I didn't include it because I knew I'd get laughed at for liking. I love singing the background in that song. Does it have drums? I can't recall.
