Pull out a pair of scissors and get ready to cut yourself a horrible haircut, because we're heading back to the 80s folks. If you want to do yourself one better, find a flashy glittery suit and some funny hats and you'll seriously be prepared for next week's Rock Band DLC. Here's the breakdown of the new songs coming next Thursday, August 21:

Devo - "Girl U Want" (new original recording) - $1.99
Devo - "Through Being Cool" (new original recording) - $1.99
Duran Duran - "Girls on Film" - $1.99
Duran Duran - "Rio" - $1.99
The Janitors - "Get Your Rock On" - $0.99

In addition to this totally 80s collection, The Janitors' "Get Your Rock On" from the American Mall soundtrack is being tacked on as the "token 'meh' song" for the week.

Am I the only one who finds this news B.O.R.I.N.G?

Of course, I wasn't even born yet when this band started so......

Save a prayer is the only Duran Duran song I like, Rio is alright though.

You're missing out...!

I'm not saying there bad tunes but they don't have any replay value for me. If they were free then that would be another story.

I want Devo - Whip it.
Also, can wait for Roc Band 2 Duran Duran's: Hungry Like the Wolf! YEA BABY!

Unfortunately, I think "Whip It" is difficult to translate to Rock Band because it relies too heavily on keyboards; there's really only the one guitar riff. But more Devo is always good; when I saw "Uncontrollable Urge" on the RB2 list I was hugely excited.

In other news, we need a keyboard controller for one of these damn music games.
