Censored, misquoted, and appropriated to represent my opinion on next week's AFI pack.

I have to say, I'm really impressed with HMX for throwing a bone towards goth fans lately. The Damned and AFI are two pretty iconic goth-punk bands (granted the songs we're getting are pretty far removed from that sound, but eh), so getting songs by both of these bands in a span of two weeks is pretty amazing by my estimation.

Hoping this paves the way for some of that oh-so-lacking goth rock, HMX.

Me too. I hope the country cover's presence doesn't rule out the real version's possible future appearance (kinda the same with "Heroes"- hope the crappy cover of David Bowie's version doesn't rule out at least the master of the Wallflowers' version in the future).

This week could have just seen The Damned track get released and it'd beat the living bejeesus out of 99% of the other DLC weeks. So stoked to play Smash It Up, and I hope we see more Damned songs in the future.

Well pardon me for not getting excited over a song and band I know nothing about.

This game is a great way to get introduced to bands we don't know anything about.

Happened to me with Judas Priest.
