American electronic rock band Awolnation are the latest artist to launch an iOS app, but this one is something out of the ordinary. Called Awolnation: Megalithic Mayhem, it’s a free game for iPhone and iPad published by Pod Design, and based on the band’s ‘Not Your Fault’ music video. Complete with claymation band members. “Each is ready for action with their own unique weapons and special attacks. Use those attacks to beat on aliens, yetis, reptilians, bomb-wielding penguins and samurai snowmen as you try to save the girl!” It looks fun. The most obvious parallel is with fellow US artist Shinobi Ninja, who launched their own iPhone game in January 2010 (Bulletin, 28-Jan-10).
