Next week we’re going to sell out completely.

Daniel Montesinos-Donaghy: If a noxious MMORPG tie-in – intended to make a new character look badass – reminds you that theSTART’s “Like Days” was great in its buoyant sneering, is its existence worthwhile?

Alfred Soto: Punky. Also clunky.

Iain Mew: It seems odd for such a great song to be written specifically for a YouTube trailer for a video game, but hey, such commercial arrangements work in Japan. And while we’re there, who Agnete Kjølsrud as Jinx most reminds me of is Japanese singer Anna Tsuchiya. Like her, Kjølsrud turns up the furious rock affectations in her voice as far as they will go, and sounds like she’s having the time of her life doing so. “Get Jinxed” supplies the giant sized pop-punk hooks to match. Tsuchiya’s best stuff was inspired by a fictional character, too!

Anthony Easton: This kind of reminds me of the best of LiLiPUT/Kleenex — squelching guitars and vocals on the edge of pixie working against each other for a little over two and a half minutes. It’s an aesthetic I could use more of.

Will Adams: Was Kerli unavailable?

Edward Okulicz: Unsure what to do for Halloween, Lene Nystrøm decided to go as Nana Mizuki. It’s a two-listen wonder but those two listens might be one of the best five minutes of your month.

Katherine St Asaph: Way, way out at the other end of the ad-placement spectrum as NONONO, we find “Get Jinxed”: a Norwegian metal singer in a League of Legends tie-in, voicing a character with a gun named Pow-Pow and skills called “Flame Chompers!” and “Super Mega Death Rocket!” Half of you have already dismissed it. For the other half, how do I even describe this? Sleigh Bells if Alexis learned vox in a tweenpop The Lovely Eggs and Derek only knew Guitar Hero? Fight Like Apes if all their songs were “Digifucker” and all the slow parts were Dragonforce? If Harley Quinn sang and was also a Chucky doll? I don’t know that I’ll ever contextualize this right. But I do know what to listen to when new music starts sounding predictable.

Brad Shoup: Definitely using this to ward off latecoming trick-or-treaters. If the squeaking vox don’t do it, the farting bass will.
