Without any irony I must say that I’m really excited to playBand Hero. Don’t laugh.
While I’m listening to Dillinger Escape Plan’sCalculating Infinityright now, next up in the queue is Kelly Clarkson’sAll I Ever Wanted. While there’s no Clarkson inBand Hero(there should be — girl can sing!), I think you see where I’m going with this: I don’t hate on top 40 radio.
So while some are turning up their noses atBand Hero, I’ll be the first in line to jump on the drums and pound away to Katrina & The Waves’ “Walking on Sunshine.” Or play guitar on Finger Eleven’s “Paralyzer” like I’m a god damn living room rock n’ roll god. Or singTaylor Swift’s “Picture to Burn”at the top of my lungs while standing on my couch.
Those are the three songs in the demo forBand Hero, which is now available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. It’s available for everyone but those in Asia. Because Asia hates Katrina & The Waves… I think.
