Gaming Trend reviews Battle of the Bands

Gaming Trend reports:
''You truly have not lived until you have heard 'Insane in the Brain' on a glockenspiel! THQ has taken the Guitar Hero concept and really flipped it on its head here. The game is similar in many ways to the GH idea, but has added 5 new styles of music to each song (Country, Rock, Hip Hop, Latin, and Marching Band). Bands, get this, battle it out on one of many stages and play the same tune. Keep hitting your notes and the meter will lean your way and thus your style will be prevalent.

On top of this, if you keep hitting your notes you will charge up the weapon you have selected and then discharge it at the 'enemy.' Lightning, fireballs, smoke grenades flying across the ravine where the target has only a split second to get his or her or its shield up to block. Speed ups, slow downs, controller flips, dogs and cats living together, MASS HYSTERIA!''
