If you think there is a lack of Punk music in RB especially after RB2...you need to get your head checked. And no, punk is not the most fun genre to play unless you like rocking back and forth on the strum bar, or banging on the same two drums every beat. The Greatful Dead-esque stuff is the most fun to play...basically anything that is not a chugfest.

Bad Religion says hi.

The Grateful Dead-esque stuff is the least fun to play because the songs are so goddamn boring.

Ya gotta hear em live, man. The experience is far out and they sound way better!

BY THE WAY, I was looking back at my posts from the other night and realized that I somehow got Feel The Pain confused with the shitty, awful Painkiller. I actually like Feel The Pain.

You are such a sad, pathetic excuse for a human being. Painkiller fucking rules!

PAIN PAIN KILLER KILLER!

Great guitar & solos?
You lost me here. We're still talking about punk, right?
 
Fuck I just pre-ordered Rock Band for thursday against any logic. I just like music games to much :(

THIS BETTER BE WORTH IT!

So what's everyone think of ramblin man?

I think it's the most god fucking awful song to play on drums AND guitar! Whoop Whoop!

I hated ramblin man at first but now I love it on both guitar and drums. Visions says Hi as well. :|

But I was not looking for arty farty love!

I have Alphabeat in my head now, their stupid smug fucking grins and their lame ass song.

Only I Kissed a Girl can save me now... to YouTube!

Should I be a hypocrite for liking alphabeat but not Katy Perry? It's a good question...

I already passed you on vocal career leaderboards already dude :p

:lol

I was thinking that was a hella shitty comment and that someone should lay on a deep burn, but it don't get much deeper than that.

Haven't played everything in solo yet. Mainly do things as a four-piece.

Only been a couple songs that have given me any trouble, and that's mainly because I'm not too familiar with them.

alright just lemme know. :)

You may want to go on without me man.

I cannot for the life of me beat Visions on Hard guitar. I've been trying for half an hour.

I can beat every single other song on Expert, but cannot do visions for the life of me. I don't want to drag you down cause I know that shit will drop towards the end and I would fail out ruining the steel bladder challenge.

Sorry man :(
 
Girlfriend just came back into town after having been stuck in Alberta for the past two weeks on business so, uh, yeah, that's why I've been gone so long. Now what all did I miss? What's the newly announced DLC? What has Costanza attempted to fuck while listening to terrible music?

Rush coming tommorow. :)

nah... bwt was and still is a good start, but there is SO much more you can do with it. rhythm games have stuck too long with "progress through tiers, unlock songs, progress through more tiers, etc" I really think they've touched on where the series might be going with Battle of the Bands.. aka making you feel like your band is a part of a bigger world/community. I am thinking RB3 will go even further in that direction. Eventually (because it really is an eventuality) I expect video to take center stage. Upload pseye/360vision videos of your band, or using a linked account upload real videos of your band. More contests really hammered out for difficulties. I mean they can do all sorts of tracking already (average stars, average difficulty played, etc) where they can implement a real ladder system. There are plenty of GH events out there already handicapped where they could do something similar.

I would buy a new version just to be spared the sight of some idiots and their pathetic band jerking off all over the place as they play badly, drunkenly, and think people want to see them. Video is almost always a terrible, terrible idea. I have no desire to see most of the people on the Internet or even RL friends over the Internet.

A Rancid song was among the 20 rumoured for free songs (knock me down or something). I dunno, the game has punk. You got the Ramones, the Clash, Buzzcocks, Mighty Bosstones, that Muffs song, Bikini Kill. I guess it's a bit missrepresented in the larger view compared to say classic rock or grunge but that stuff is just more popular. That's not to say there's a TOOON of stuff they could have. Here's some punk I'd like to see, I'm gonna include post-punk and kinda offshoot genres:

Fugazi
Bad Brains
X
Joy Division
X-Ray Specs
Wire
Gang of Four
Husker Du
Raincoats
Sex Pistols
Richard Hell
Pere Ubu
Minutemen
The Fall
Mission of Burma

This is much, much better than Rancid. I mean, I hear the singles every so often on the radio and they're not bad for being radio-friendly pop with a bit of a ska-punk influence on them, but compared to something like Fugazi... well, I think we all know where this is going.

No, he doth speaketh the truth.

NO! It can't be true! You're just trying to get me to let down my guard... YOU'RE NOT MY REAL DAD!!!

Edit: Sleater-Kinney?!? FUCK YEAH! Great DLC this week. It honestly doesn't feel like anything was forced on them by MTV or promotions or anything, just good, solid music in a wide range of genres and some great singles rather than just one big pack of fail. Won't come out til Thurs. for me though being on the PS3 and all though. Probably won't get Moving Pictures either due to my impecunious situation.

So with something this good next week I'm expecting a Fall Out Boy pack or something to just completely dick us all like we're the Mariana Trench.
 
It's a shame that Wikipedia is a better source of information than the OP most of the time. We really need to get weekly DLC announcements up there.

Listening to "Blank Generation" right now. My god that would be so sweet on guitar.

Yell at BenjaminBirdie then. He gets too damn lax with the responsibility of being the OP.

Rancid is awesome and needs to be in this game. As a fellow bass player, how could you not want to play this awesome bass solo in Maxwell Murder
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bimNMiz250.
Sure, it's a really short song, but it's so good. ...And Out Comes The Wolves album needs to be put up for DLC.

as long as you're not talking about the actual grateful dead songs in the game. China Cat is one of the funnest guitar/drum songs, franklins tower rules on guitar, casey jones is awesome, etc.

the only one I have a problem with is Truckin' which as far as I'm concerned is in the same boat as Ramblin man.

Fuck.
