I've got Youtube links to all in the OP :^)

A Day to Remember, Architects and Beartooth are s*** metalcore
Chevelle, Halestorm and Rise Against are whatever rock bands, if you're into that thing then cool
Pearl Jam and Soundgarden stopped making music 20 years ago I think
And Got the Time is a top tier metal song that I hope is also in RB4 because it's really the only track I'm excited about in this game

Oh hey I actually like Gravedigger

New song reveals today:

Alice in Chains - "Stone"
Angus & Julia Stone - "A Heartbreak"
Bullet for My Valentine - "Temper Temper"
Catfish and the Bottlemen - "Kathleen"
Deap Valley - "Lies"
Neon Trees - "Everybody Talks"
New Politics - "Harlem"
Queen - "Tie Your Mother Down"
Weezer - "Buddy Holly"
Wolfmother - "Sundial"


Term's Thoughts™
Alice in Chains joins Pearl Jam and Soundgarden in the group of "2010s songs from bands people stopped paying attention to in the 90s"
Bullet For My Valentine is garbage but they were my favorite band in high school so they could've got me with some nostalgia if they picked an older song. But they picked one from the newest one instead, because of course
It is at least nice to have another pre-2000 song or two

And of course, we couldn't go a week without a metalcore song

Every week I try to remain hopeful that THIS IS THE WEEK WHERE WE'LL GET THE GOOD SONGS but I am disappointed every time

As much as I want to try the game, at the moment I'm definitely not planning to get it, not with a soundtrack like this

Yeah I haven't heard 99% of the songs they're announcing when they announce them, then I go listen to them and they're mostly s***. Maybe GHTV can save it?

It's a true gift that of all the Queen songs, they managed to end up with one I don't even know. Could the Guitar Hero franchise not afford Seven Seas of Rhye?

FINALLY some expert footage appears:

New IGN article
I haven't even read all the way through yet, but I really wanted to post this because you literally can't fail in the game. No matter how s*** you do you just keep going.

it's a commentary on the music industry these days........

no matter how much you suck, you'll keep going......................

very deep. almost enough to make me stop talking about politics in the Philipp- oh wait that was Rock Band never mind

we've known about the no failing for a while but that doesn't bother me tbh

the soundtrack is so bad i just don't care anymore

They announced about 20 new songs and they're all in the OP now

It's all pop and repeat songs

Also there were some interviews about using tokens to play dlc songs and having to either grind tokens or buy them with real money and there was one saying that you can't play your dlc songs offline

whatever

I can't be assed to care anymore, with a garbage soundtrack like this even I can't defend it anymore

but term

repeat songs don't matter because you've NEVER PLAYED THEM LIKE THIS BEFORE

okay i'm sorry

it's like

that was valid i think when there were only a few repeats but now there are so f*** many and almost all the most interesting songs are repeats

So it's out and here's footage of someone playing Bangarang:


Honestly this is too hilarious not to love
I have been to two Skrillex concerts and THEY ARE NOT QUITE LIKE THIS LOL

The on disc setlist is awful but GHTV has some solid songs so I might pick it up sometime. The rhythmfag in me is intrigued

The way the notes are shaped would make me miss so many. Like around the 1:50 mark in that video with the middle notes.

From what I've heard everything about it is mediocre except for GHTV. Probably won't pick it up. I also didn't pick up RB4 though. I was planning to get it Day 1 but I heard it didn't have online multiplayer and that was a huge dealbreaker. I was so hyped for the rhythm comeback ;_;

I know, I'm pretty upset too

I'm waiting to get Scorehero impressions about how bad the microtransactions are for GHTV. If they're bearable I might get it, but the GHL songs are so amazingly bad I can't get it for that alone

No practice in RB4 for that price is an instant dealbreaker too. Shame
