Blackstreet Singer Accused Of Rock Band Guitar Assault
Remember that band Blackstreet? Me neither!* But Teddy Riley, a singer from the R&B combo, is accused of using a plastic Rock Band guitar to beat and terrorize his own daughters. Riley's daughter Taja says the singer was "stomping, punching and bashing" her and her older sister, and at one point, the enraged vocalist picked up a...

Review Of New Weezer Album Accuses Band Of Catering To Rock Band
Weezer remains my favorite band...ever. It'd take something very special to top Blue Album and Pinkerton in my mind, especially when you add nostalgia to the mix. But I'm a little more realistic about modern day Weezer, especially the band's latest record, Raditude (don't get me started on the title). The notoriously snarky Pitchfork, however,...

Destructoid reports musicians will have no problem publishing songs that would only be playable for, say, vocalists only or exclusively guitar and bass --...

Activision Looking At Project Natal, Sony Motion For Guitar Hero
Where do music games go from here? DJ Hero and Scratch: The Ultimate DJ are exploring otherwise ignored areas of music, but Guitar Hero and Rock Band may begin stretching themselves thin.

Rock Band Gets Heavy With Metal Disc
I've written a short playlet about a just announced standalone Metal Track Pack disc that's coming out in October for Rock Band. The setting is an open field in Springtime. Two people, (You and Me) pass one another while gathering wildflowers. Me: Dude, I'm so sorry about your face. You: Why are you sorry about my face? Me: It's about to...

Jimmy Page And Jack White Don't Like Guitar Hero
It's interesting to find out how rockers feel about music games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Yeah, they're just games, and we just have fun with them, but it must be surreal to have your art, job and craft appear in a video game. If you've poured your life-blood and passion into a musical composition, it must be really, really weird to have...
