Definitely surprised by all the A7X hate coming from Scorehero of all places, considering we all know the songs are gonna be extremely fun to play. But opinions will be opinions.

Probably gonna get all the songs this week, Tubthumper ftw.

I think Avenged Sevenfold are one of the perfect examples of differing opinions among RB players. Some people despise then, some people only like a few songs (shove me into that category), some people really like them and express disappointment with the song choices and some people end up drooling on any topic that mentions them.

I know it happens with a lot of bands but it always happens with Avenged Sevenfold to a massive extreme. For every person drooling over Afterlife there's another one person pissing on a train track and considering it better music. It's a rare balance of opinions.

Take On Me? Tubthumping? Yep, I'm running down to CVS tomorrow for some PS cards.

I think I'm still kind of in a daze about Tubthumping. I mean, I'm all for it: crazy-popular party-friendly songs are always much appreciated. But is there a more "one-hit wonder, came out of nowhere, became magically ingrained in all strata of society overnight" sort of potential offering out there? (Having thought about it at some length, the answer is, of course, yes: The Macarena also came from nowhere and had even more staying power. We also might have accepted Outkast's "Hey Ya". I would be actively happy to purchase either of those for my Rock Band library as well.)

I'm also enthused about "Take On Me", of course. I've loved singing that song at karaoke nights and in myriad other singing games; I'm ecstatic that it's finally making its way into Rock Band, letting folks show off their four octaves of range in yet-still-another venue. (This is the part of the post where someone with actual knowledge corrects me, and lets me know how many octaves are actually spanned by the a-ha lead singer in that song.) And Live is not at the top of my Cool Nineties Alternarock Artists Who Have Yet To Show In The Game queue, but is clearly part of that general pool; anything that gives me more hope that the 311 / Cake / Everclear wing of the music world will eventually surface has to be more good than bad.
