Queens of the Stone Age New Video Done in “Rock Band” Style
Homme and Co., instead of posing for the camera, have let digital avatars strut their stuff on stage in their new video for “3’s and 7’s.” The video uses the visual style of “Rock Band,” the video game phenomenon, in which players man instrument-like controllers and play along with the actual songs.
The song has appeared in “Guitar Hero 3,” a similar game, so this is less of a validation of the game genre and more of a piece of evidence that this type of game is fully entrenched in the zeitgeist of the intended audience. So much so that, according to MTV, bands are about to start debuting tracks within the two games. Quite a shake up for the music industry.
