Dog Days Are Over is ok, it's nice to see RB get a popular artist like this but not really my thing. As for the other two, I know of Cracker but didn't recognize either songs after Youtubing. The Midnight Oil song is odd (and the video lol), it does have a drum solo though. I really hope we get Low at some point but Teen Angst is good. Random week, nothing too exciting for me. _________________

That's about where I'm at. I'd assumed they would've picked "Low", but hey, at least it's the other Cracker song I know - neat! And it's another one for the "artists I kind of figured I might never see in the game" pile, if nothing else. _________________

I remember Harmonix saying at one point that they keep a few songs ready for when they don't have time to chart that week. This seems like one of those weeks. |

Of all the good, somewhat famous and/or recognisable Midnight Oil songs, why did they choose Power and Passion is beyond me!
Blue Sky Mine (one of their best songs!)
Beds Are Burning (They played this song at the opening or closing cerimony for the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney)
Bedlam Bridge
Forgotten Years
King of the Mountain
Stars of Warburton
Dead Heart _________________

YES TEEN ANGST!
I would've preferred a 3 pack of Cracker with that, Low, and Get Off This, but that's fine.
The other 2 songs are definitely maybe pick-ups. _________________

Enormous meh from me this week. Florence are one of those bands that have just never appealed to me, I find their music neither terrible nor amazing, they're just...there.
Never heard of the other two bands, and from the previews I may pick up Teen Angst eventually, but nothing is screaming must-buy for me this week (which is a good thing since I'm on vacation and I'd hate to miss something awesome).
Last new DLC I bought was Paramore - this'll be the longest I've gone without buying anything new since summer 2010. Hopefully Blitz isn't too far away. _________________

Given that I hate "Dog Days Are Over" and was not at all impressed by the other two, I won't be getting any first party DLC next week. |

Ooh, Florence. Wouldn't have been my song pick, but I quite like them. _________________

Don't know any of these, except for the fact that Florence and the Machine is really big among hipsters. Initial listen leaves me uninterested, and I already hated Dog Days Are Over without knowing who did it. Pass. _________________

Not my week, but Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Flight of Icarus pro upgrades is good enough for a whole month of DLC. XD _________________
