The best western kung-fu sci-fi rock opera, ever. It certainly was an inspiration for a game of Mist-Robed Gate.

(The raw awesome of this video was basically the inspiration for restarting this blog a ways back. Original credit to jrients for posting it.)

» Punk-O-Matic

An amazing flash game that lets you mix together standard pop-punk tracks and mash together a song from scratch. For fun, try the RANDOM option – the results are shockingly listenable.

It’s a testament to some great analysis of the genre AND a fun toy AND a tribute to that aesthetic AND perhaps a pointer to some of the more mechanistic as aspects of the genre. Eh… Nah, it’s just fun.

Add the tabs for your favorite created songs in the comments.

“Essentially, this is a rock-and-roll band… But the way I am, I decided I’m going to take these things, morph them a little bit, and put them inside a piece of fiction.” (Claudio Sanchez)

Kinda surprising, and very cool to hear.

ARE YOU READY FOR… Nïghtwölff??? You most certainly are not! It’s a great Primetime Adventures game: struggling metal bands in the dark ages of ‘87.

octaNe is the rock-and-roll game of post-everything trash culture america. It’s hardcore, man. Now, hamsterprophet (aka Nathan Paoletta) presents FilliN’ Up: Situation Creation for OctaNe, a very rock-and-roll mod for octaNe.

So, you and yer buds wanna play a game of OctaNe, right? Well, yer gonna need some Rock’N'Roll. So, you guys all figger out what Rock’N'Roll song y’all like – it’s gonna kinda be the basis of yer game, so make it a good one (hint: anything by Johnny Cash or Elvis is a rockin’ default). So, y’alls siddown with a piece o paper and a pen, and y’all listen to this Rock’N'Roll song. Pay attention!

WRONG. Rock is NOT about paying attention. How are you going to pay attention if you’re busy drinking PBR and fighting the Man? (Wait, am I thinking of PUNK? Maybe…)

Speaking of Nathan, we may be having a new contributor to the 10×10room, but I don’t want to mention who it will be yet. It’s a surprise!
