London Curdling

[www.pastemagazine.com]

London Calling is coming to Rock Band. Parents everywhere can thrill to hearing their little tykes sing along to "He who fucks nuns will someday join the church," "We've been drinkin' brew for breakfast" and "JESUS CHRIST!!!! Where did you get that Cadillac?"

I'm sure there are probably much more parental unfriendly things already on Rock Band, but I haven't ever been able to bring myself to care what might be available.

My nephews are into Rock Band, big-time. I've played it a couple times with them myself.

They both dig "Who Are You," but I don't recall whether either of their parents have been in the room when Daltrey snarls that aside, "Awww, who the fuck are you?" I don't remember seeing anything more "parentally unfriendly" on their playlist, although I directed them to "Search and Destroy" as quickly as I could.

Hopefully this will spur the youngsters to get into Montgomery Clift.
