Activision unveils 'Band Hero' drum grip
Activision has unveiled a new drum peripheral for its upcoming Band Hero handheld title.

In addition to the guitar grip, which launched with the previous versions, the new game will contain a set of drum pads that rest over the DS Lite's face buttons.

Players will be able to control the drums with their thumbs, as well as sing along to the featured 30 songs with the DS's built-in microphone.

The release will include music by the likes of KT Tunstall, Blink-182, Avril Lavigne, The Killers and Fall Out Boy, and supports four-player co-operative play.

Band Hero is due out for the PS2, PS3, 360, Wii and DS later this year.
