If you could have an entire ALBUM in Rock Band, which one would it be?

[Dodobird]

Topic says it all. If you could play through an album start to finish without leaving any songs out, which one would it be?

For me, it would be, without a doubt, Wish You Were Here. Aside from already being my favorite album ever, it holds a nice combination of instruments throughout, so nobody would end up being bored for very long.

[Rev0lver]

that's a hard one actually. but i'm going to go with the human abstract's "Nocturne". All the songs show immense skill in every instrument.

[dark_maiden]

can mezmerize/hypnotize be counted as one album??? if so then that would be the one i pick bc of SOADs ability to change completely from one song to the next. If not i would pick Cheshire Cat bc all the songs on there except romeo and rebecca (for the verse only) are quite fast paced and would be excellent on RB

[sa_nick]

Nine Inch Nails Live: And All That Could Have Been

16 tracks taken from their Fragility 2.0 tour in summer 2000. With Jordie White on drums how can you go wrong?

[Voodoo]

Iron Maiden...somewhere in time

[FunkaTrunk]

The Arockalypse Special Edition by Lordi.
"Supermonstar( The Anthem of the Phantoms)" is the guitarists highlight(solo is a beuty).
"Would You Love A Monsterman (2006 Version)" would be the singers highlight.
"Bringing Back The Balls To Rock" has pretty frantic drumming.
"Evilove" has really solid bass, but all the songs do, so really, it's your pick.

There are 14 songs all in all, the shortist being 3:03

See you in the spotlight!

[WingsOfSteel]

Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy

Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind

Kansas - Masque

Rush - 2112

[SirAnonymous]

I'd have to go with Dark Side of The Moon. The obivious reason being that it's one of my favorite albums ever. Meddle might be a good choice also, but One Of These Days might be really hard to play.

Also, good on you for Wish You Were Here.

[WingsOfSteel]

I'd have to go with Dark Side of The Moon. The obivious reason being that it's one of my favorite albums ever.

I love that album, but since three of its tracks are instrumentals, it's a bad choice for RB (although doing the vocals for Great Gig in the Sky would kick ass)

I personally think Animals would be the best Floyd album for Rock Band. Just think how good Dogs would be.

[mightybryce]

The played out songs are kinda cliche but the hidden gems like Rocket Queen, You're Crazy, and Mr Brownstone would add a little fun along with the standard GNR hits.

[WildWalker]

I think the (original) Queen greatest hits.

WW

[Jayce_D]

cKy - Infiltrate.Destroy.Rebuild.

an obvious one - Nirvana - In Utero

[sushi111]

The Bends or OK Computer - Radiohead
Badmotorfinger - Soundgarden
Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin

[Bastard_Son_of_Jimi]

Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin

Definitely agree with that. It has Stairway, Black Dog, Rock & Roll, Misty Mountain Hop, etc.

Other than that I would say Incubus - S.C.I.E.N.C.E or Make Yourself, Pearl Jam - Ten.

[Rev0lver]

i almost forgot stone temple pilots "Thank You"

[Teh_Jakester]

Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin IV was ****. Stairway was ****.

My choices:
Scenes, Dragon's Kiss, or Loudspeaker by Marty Friedman.

Or maybe Blizzard of Ozz by Ozzy Osbourne

[Dodobird]

I love that album, but since three of its tracks are instrumentals, it's a bad choice for RB (although doing the vocals for Great Gig in the Sky would kick ass)

Aye, I would've chosen Dark Side, but there's at least one track where only the drums would be going (On the Run). Any Colour You Like would be kick-ass, though.

I dunno, I just never liked Animals as much as the others. It always seemed more "bland" to me, it just lacked the life of the previous two. Although, I have to give you this, performing the vocal-fade-into-synthesizer on Sheep would be one of the coolest moments in the game for the vocals.

Oh, and I would much rather have Led Zeppelin II. IV was really good, but II is just filled with rawk.

[GNR962]

I could give you a few



Drist-Orchids And Ammunition(except Before The Blackouts because there is no music just static.)


Megadeth-United Abominations(Like 4 guitar solos in every song, only one song under 4 minutes.)

AC-DC-Back In Black(Because it's awesome)


Guns N' Roses-Use Your Illusion 2(You know I was going to put them in there.)


Better Luck Next Time-Third Times A Charm(Fast-Paced, electrifying instrumentals and vocals.)

[DevilSavior]

My choice would have to be a tie between the following two:
Frances The Mute by The Mars Volta
Ghost Reveries by Opeth
Yep.

[FalseReality]

Vulgar Display of Power - Pantera

The Blue Album - Weezer

[Elnino]

Appetite For Destruction (GNR)
AC/DC Live
Rage Against the Machine Live (There last concert together)

[TheIceCreamMan]

Rush - 2112

Pink Floyd - Animals

AC/DC - Highway To Hell

Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains - The Big Eyeball In the Sky

New York Dolls - New York Dolls
The Specials - The Specials
The Living End - The Living End (Or 'Roll On')
Dinosaur Jr - Green Mind
Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain
The Undertones - The Undertones
999 - The Biggest Prize In Sport
Descendents - Milo Goes To College

I would play every song back to front on those.

[Gedman03]

I would probably have to say..................... 2112 by Rush because of the fast paced songs and great guitar work.

[Teh_Grimm]

I doubt any of you agree with this, but Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables by the Dead Kennedys. I absolutely love this album, and know at least 50 other people who want some DK in Rock Band.

[jsummersphd]

Even as a punker, I've never really got into Dead Kennedys... or the Ramones or most of the old stuff, for that matter. The Misfits are as far back as I go... with The Vandals, Boucing Souls, and Rancid following.

Call me weird, but 2 minute songs with the same 3 power chords over and over again with monotonous, meaningless lyrics get old... even to punks. And they certainly don't transfer well to this medium

[Keebler]

I can't believe no one has said Deep Purple's "Machine Head." You get "Smoke on the Water," "Space Truckin'," and "Highway Star" on that album.

I'd also have to pick Black Sabbath's "Paranoid," Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon," and U2's "Achtung Baby."

[devilwithin]

The Clash - London Calling

[sa_nick]

Yes as i have said my tastes are freaking everywhere. =P

BEST.... LIST.... EVER....

[Kutsic]

Machine Head- The Blackening
Slipknot- Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses
Opeth- Blackwater Park
In Flames- Whoracle
Dimmu Borgir- In Sorte Diaboli
Metallica- And Justice for All

[Zastai]

@SirAnonymous: I strongly second DSOTM for the plain reason that it's teh bestest album evar!!!1!
WYWH is great too.

However, neither is suited for RB. On DSOTM you have tracks like Great Gig i/t Sky which would be awesome to do vocals on, but besides vocals only has bass and a bit of drums.
On WYWH, the album starts with the lovely Shine on You Crazy Diamond, but none of the RB instruments come into that for the first two minutes - and even then it's only the guitar until around 4:30 when bass & drum come in (never mind the vocals, which start at ~8:40).

In fact, I fear many Floyd tracks fall in the not-enough-vocals-for-RB category... We'll have to wait for Prog Rock Band, with the 3 stacked keyboard controllers :D

[endeyequote]

Haha. Thankyou. :D

"Shine On You Crazy Diamond" you could probably trim down the first 4 minutes until the signature guitar riff. As for Dark Side of the Moon, you could probably remove all the instrumental tracks (On the Run, The Great Gig in the Sky, Any Colour You Like) for the purposes of this game. I think that could make things work...

[KingofQUEEN48]

4 words NIGHT AT THE OPERA- Queen

[xxpigxx]

It would be Third Eye Blinds self titled first album for me :D

[idiotec]

I doubt any of you agree with this, but Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables by the Dead Kennedys. I absolutely love this album, and know at least 50 other people who want some DK in Rock Band.
I would love to see some DK in the game. Throw in some Decendents, NOFX, and Black Flag and I would have a good time :)

[ThePaska]

There are so many, but I'm only going to pick 5 as of now:

Nirvana - Nevermind

Foo Fighters - The Color and The Shape

Led Zeppelin - Any of their Albums

Queens of the Stone Age - Songs For The Deaf

Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

[Brennen]

10 Albums that I would love to play on Rockband:

Protest the Hero - Kezia
System of a Down - Mezmerize/Hypnotize
Thrice - The Artist in the Ambulance
Atreyu - The Curse
Rush - Moving Pictures
DragonForce - Inhuman Rampage
Symphony X - The Odyssey
He is Legend - I am Hollywood
The Human Abstract - Nocturne
I am Ghost - Lover's Requiem

[Rev0lver]

He is Legend - I am Hollywood


That'd be fine, but i'd rather see Suck Out The Poison

[greenraider93]

Ride The Lightning - Metallica

[TheTogfather]

Most of the ones I'd pick would have to be trimmed due to instrumentals or odd-ball tracks, like most Tool albums and Pink Floyd. But, now that we know that in addition to full albums, such as Who's Next, they're also going to do career-spanning song lists, like they're doing for Metallica, then anyone if fair game. Oh lord...I fear the things I would do to get a 40 song Tool pack. Or floyd too.

But, if I had to pick one single album to play, front to back, it's gotta be Pearl Jam, Ten. So much good.

[Corvian]

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness - Smashing Pumpkins

simply one of the best rock (double)albums ever



a Beatles or Led Zeppelin album would be awesome too

[Klopek]

Machine Head- The Blackening
Slipknot- Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses
Opeth- Blackwater Park
In Flames- Whoracle
Dimmu Borgir- In Sorte Diaboli
Metallica- And Justice for All

The Blackening - awesome choice. It's amazing to think that the people who made Supercharger could throw out something as astounding as this.

I adore Blackwater Park but there are many lengthy acoustic sections that could grow boring after a few plays. That being said, select tracks from the album would be awesome. It might be difficult choosing whether to include bass or the second electric guitar track. The bass is varied and interesting, but those dual solos are perhaps too good to miss out on?

I also agree with one of the other poster's choice of United Abominations. That album is packed.

From me, throw in perhaps something by Killswitch Engage? They're pretty versatile. Not sure which album. I can't remember but there may be some intermission/mellow/acoustic tracks - I suppose they could be removed. I'd put more effort into reviewing them if I thought it would matter. Let the "Music Advisory Board" sort all of this out!

[Podruvan]

Kansas - Masque

Boston - Boston

Aerosmith - Greatest Hits

[Desensitized]

The Clash - London Calling
Dude, let's be honest, ANY of the first 3 Clash albums would be awesome to play front to back.

[idiotec]

One I haven't seen mentioned yet.

Failure - Fantastic Planet

So many great songs.

[donkamero]

Tenacious D - Tenacious D you know this album would be awesome to play all through, maybe the second album as a second choice....

[WingsOfSteel]

Kansas - Masque

Boston - Boston

Aerosmith - Greatest Hits

Excellent taste.

[SxEatreyu92]

[SpeedMetal09]

Reign In Blood by Slayer

[widowmaker17]

City of Evil - Avenged Sevenfold
Vocals would be difficult depending on how closely you had to mimic the real singer but the rest of the instruments would be fun and fast paced. Lots of solos too...


This thread is great now because we all know that its a possibility some of these albums might be fully downloadable.

[JakeFatal]

The complete minor threat discography-Minor threat

Tenacious D-Tenacious D

The greatest songs ever written (by us)- NOFX

Kill em all- Metallica

American Psycho- The misfits

[SpeedMetal09]

im seeing Tenacious D alot and i just thought Tribute by Tenacious D would be a badass song to put on rockband

[JakeFatal]

im seeing Tenacious D alot and i just thought Tribute by Tenacious D would be a badass song to put on rockband

city hall would be way better

[Ghostrider2112]

Id have to say:

Toxicity - System of a Down
Roll the Bones - Rush
Absolution - Muse
Deadwing- Porcupine Tree

[dim1234]

sepultura - beneath the remains
the misfits - walk among us

AC/DC - High Voltage
Iron Maiden - Edward the Great - Greatest Hits
Megadeth - Peace Sells...But Who's Buyin?
Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power
Skid Row - Slave to the Grind
SOAD - Toxicity
Tenacious D - Pick of Destiny or their self titled album which ever they are both awesome
Van Halen - The Best of Both Worlds
Avenged Sevenfold - City of Evil
Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction

[gnrneeded]

Any album by G'n'R, but I think the timing would be awesome for Appetite for Destruction, since this year marks the 20th Anniversary of this epic album.

[devilwithin]

Dude, let's be honest, ANY of the first 3 Clash albums would be awesome to play front to back.
True but I really want London Calling just that little bit more but I still be happy any of the first 3 Clash albums but they got to put on The Clash - I Fought the Law on the game or download

[Grey_Street]

Motley Crue - Dr Feelgood

[Stretch]

Rage Against the Machine - Self Titled
Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage
Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
Tool - Lateralus or 10,000 Days
Incubus - Morning View or Make Yourself
Alkaline Trio - Crimson
CKY - either IDR or Vol1
Clutch - Robot Hive/Exodus
Deftones - Around The Fur
Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
Primus - Sailing the Seas of Cheese
System of a Down - Toxicity

Think them there would make me sex wee in my pants :D

[Teh_Jakester]

Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage
Muse - Black Holes and Revelations

Worst album by those bands.

[Gear_RA_RA_RA]

Use Your Illusion I.

[hetfield]

Metallica: Master of Puppets is a masterpiece of work. If Harmonics doesnt use at least

one song from this album they will be making a huge mistake. This album has inspired

bands upon bands to play what they feel needs to be heard. Its just that good.

[Teh_Jakester]

Use Your Illusion I.

You're willing to sit through November Rain?

[Seattle_Sound]

Nirvana - Nevermind - In Utero is a better album but the drums on Stay Away are too tasty
RHCP - Mothers Milk
Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger
Foo Fighters - The Colour And The Shape

Yay my posts are now 111

[Gear_RA_RA_RA]

You're willing to sit through November Rain?

Forgot about that one...

Okay, Van Halen I.

[Elnino]

You're willing to sit through November Rain?

I wouldn't mind sitting through it.

[Teh_Jakester]

Forgot about that one...

Okay, Van Halen I.

Again, willing to sit through Eruption?

[WingsOfSteel]

You're willing to sit through November Rain?

For Garden of Eden and Coma, I'd sit through Hollaback Girl.

[sushi111]

Since Whos Next is already taken, I think I decided on the ones I want the most in order:

1. OK Computer - Radiohead
2. Led Zeppelin II - Led Zeppelin
3. Badmotorfinger - Soundgarden
4. The Bends - Radiohead
5. Superunknown - Soundgarden
6. Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin
7. Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden
8. Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chili Peppers
9. Disraeli Gears/ Wheels of Fire - Cream
10. Tenacious D - Tenacious D


Wait a minute I think someone has heard stuff on those albums... Jakester stop me while you still can!

[Teh_Jakester]

Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin

There's only one good song on that album. Rock and Roll.

[mobhit101]

BANG CAMARO

who cares about the potential problem with vocals.... :D

That whole CD kicks serious ace!

[WingsOfSteel]

There's only one good song on that album. Rock and Roll.

You're wrong. Battle of Evermore would be really fun, and Black Dog might be overrated, but it isn't bad.

Also, even though I don't really like the song, Four Sticks would kick ass for drums.

But still, Stairway to Heaven, Misty Mountain Hop, and When the Levee Breaks are all songs that wouldn't fit the instruments well, so the album as a whole isn't a great choice.

Led Zeppelin II and Houses of the Holy ftw.

PS. Wheels of Fire would be a better choice for Cream imo.

[Gear_RA_RA_RA]

Again, willing to sit through Eruption?

Yes. Yes I would.

[goincommando]

War - U2
The Joshua Tree - U2
The Lonesome Crowded West - Modest Mouse
Who's Next - The Who (can't wait to get this download)
Black Holes and Revalations - Muse

[Gear_RA_RA_RA]

War - U2
The Joshua Tree - U2
The Lonesome Crowded West - Modest Mouse
Who's Next - The Who (can't wait to get this download)
Hullaballoo - Muse

Correcteded.

[DefJovi]

So hard to answer this... Every answer is good! But if I had to chose, obvious choices with my nick, would be either Bon Jovi Keep The Faith, or Def Leppard Hysteria... :cool:

[shmatt1]

Tough one, but I'd have to say Kyuss' "Welcome to Sky Valley". Brilliant all the way through except maybe the last track which is a bit of a goof.

[zankfrappa]

highway to hell-ac/dc

led zeppelin 2-led zeppelin

siamese dream-smashing pumpkins

are you experience?-the jimi hendrix experience

not necesserily my fave albums, they are definately up there though, but i think theyd all work really well in the game.

[sushi111]

There's only one good song on that album. Rock and Roll.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

The guy that complains that very song is overplayed and hates every popular song claims Rock and Roll is the best song on Led Zeppelin IV.

Stairway, Black Dog, Going to California and Rock and Roll are all great songs, though I forget all the other songs on the album right now.

[Shadow6868]

Vulgar Display of Power - Pantera

[devo193]

Tool - 10,000 Days


Starts off with two really fast, finger-shattering rock songs, then it slows down for a few tracks, then a single vocal-only track, a 14 minute song, and its slow for the rest of the album.


All in all, about 70 minutes.

[WingsOfSteel]

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

The guy that complains that very song is overplayed and hates every popular song claims Rock and Roll is the best song on Led Zeppelin IV.

Stairway, Black Dog, Going to California and Rock and Roll are all great songs, though I forget all the other songs on the album right now.

Battle of Evermore (which is my personal favorite from the album), When the Levee Breaks, Misty Mountain Hop, and Four Sticks.

[Prezario]

Protest the Hero - Kezia. That is all. In fact, just make a game that's just like Rock Band, except call it "Protest the Hero: THE GAME" and have Kezia be the only soundtrack. Hey, I'd buy it. And if you've never heard of Protest the Hero, YouTube them.

[army258]

I would probly go with Van Halen, the bands first album. Gotta love Ice Cream Man and Running With the Devil.

[Nitz13]

Bullet For My Valentine - The Poison

[Gilmour]

For a Pearl Jam album, I think Vs. would be better than Ten.

As much as I love Pink Floyd, an entire album of theirs seems unlikely. (Instead, do induvidual songs: i.e.: Have a Cigar, Time, etc.)

Roll the Bones by Rush would be fun.

[Teh_Jakester]

Yes. Yes I would.

...But... You... I... EVERYTHING I KNOW IS A LIE!!!

[Gear_RA_RA_RA]

...But... You... I... EVERYTHING I KNOW IS A LIE!!!

It's just Eruption :(

FINE, GO OFF!

[Jeff_DeGordick]

I can't pick one....

Naveed - Our Lady Peace
Audio of Being - Matthew Good Band
Colour and the Shape or In Your Honour - Foo Fighters
Californication or By the Way or Stadium Arcadium - Red Hot Chili Peppers

[Amythyst]

...And Justice For All-Metallica That would be sweet.

[lithiumkc]

For Guitar Hero/Vocals.... Pink Moon (Nick Drake). For Rock Band... Nevermind, simply because its still one of my favorite albums and I'd love to play any of the instruments on it. Not the most difficult to play, though.

[OrdealByFire]

Third Eye Blind's debut album, I'd say would fit well.

There are a million others..

[DShizzle1029]

The Fragile by Nine Inch Nails...

Its two disks long, and its my favorite of all the NIN albums, though I know probably ever NIN song by heart. Trent Reznor is AMAZING.

But yeah, The Fragile is the album I would play through.

[TylerSalak]

Id like who made who by AC/DC

[AJamal]

Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
Brand New - Deja Entendu

[ChuckBTY]

This one is easy for me:

Queensryche's Operation: Mindcrime

[Bountymanx]

Any weezer album would do.

[joeincolorado]

Nevermind - Nirvana

[exitwound666]

City of Evil... the instruments are great and it would take a lot of talent to do anything like m. shadows voice

[iceman1992]

The Poison - Bullet for my Valetine

[Sonofmogh]

something by Rush...maybe 2112 or moving pictures
...or a greatest hits album :D

[infinitytomorrow]

Every Time I Die- Hot Damn!

That would be a brutal set

[Weezy24]

Led Zeppelin- Led Zeppelin Ii
311- From Chaos
Audioslave- Revalations
Sublime- Sublime

[Dabog666]

Train of thought by Dream Theater.
Because of the sheer brilliance of the musicians

Rust In Peace - Megadeth, Cowboys From Hell - Pantera or Valley Of The Damned (Album) - DragonForce.

[Vigorousjammer]

i've said it before, i'll say it Again, Rush "2112" would rock majorly...

[DIEGOROBOT26]

i've said it before, i'll say it Again, Rush "2112" would rock majorly...

I agree with you, or Fly By Night.

[GambitOfDesires]

I think if half these albums got put in there, with the amount of rage they'd put out, we'd be in a blood frenzy only matched by a 24-hour marathon of "300". Not that I'm against blood frenzies but I doubt I'd make it to "Rock Band 2: Rock Bander" with the cops shooting me and all. I'd have to say either Vincent Black Shadow's "Fear in the Water" or Silversun Pickup's "Carnivas". VBS is ska enough for me to not punch a hole through my cat, at least until I listen to the lyrics. "Carnivas" would be more of a cool-down piece... a depressing-yet-happy piece, but yeah.

Rock Band 2: Songs Your Parents Grew Up To

That would the ultimate slap in the face...lol. You see mom and dad playing Rock Band 2 and having a blast to it...lmao.

[HollywoodBound]

I'd want some Alternative Rock:

Breaking Benjamin:
Sautrate
We Are Not Alone
Phobia

Three Days Grace:
Three Days Grace (album)
One-X

Red:
End of Silence

Disturbed:
Believe
The Sickness

Hoobastank, Linkin Park, Matchbox 20, Korn, 10 Years are all bands I'd like to have in there as well.

[GambitOfDesires]

Rock Band 2: Songs Your Parents Grew Up To

That would the ultimate slap in the face...lol. You see mom and dad playing Rock Band 2 and having a blast to it...lmao.

You wanna hear some crap about parents rocking out? I was listening to SoaD's "Mesmerize" and my mom starts doing the funky chicken during "Violent Pornography". Same thing during Offspring's "Why don't You Get a Job?" World's becoming a strange place.

[Salahdihn]

I'd want Gorillaz-Gorillaz
Plenty of different styles on the album, plenty of hard and easy going songs, and the instruments would work well in most of the songs. I'd like to see it in Rock Band if nothing else to see the "actual" band on stage; fake band in a fake guitar game=meta goodness.

[progROCKER]

Images and words- dream theater.

John Petrucci Is the sickest guitarist and you would be hard pressed to play 64th notes.
mike portnoy's drums would destroy you.
john myungs bass lines are really hard as well
last but not least James LaBrie's vocals are really high pitched and you could not hit them.

Long story short - NO one would be able to beat these songs on the hardest difficulty.

[lughericci]

Without any doubt i say MASTER OF PUPPETS.....the holy bible of trash metal.....

[lughericci]

Valley of the damned by dragonforce.....it would be a little hard to play,eh?
The 25th hour by vision divine
both of the keepers by helloween

[ItsAllOnMe54]

I'd want Gorillaz-Gorillaz

you are a fxcking idiot


gorillaz suck monkey nuts

[littleband]

Train of thought by Dream Theater.
Because of the sheer brilliance of the musicians
Hahaha! Great pick! Could you imagine yourself 5-starring, or for that matter, BEATING "This Dying Soul" on expert? An 11-minute barrage of notes. It would become "Jordan" extended 3 times. But then again, there is "Stream of Consciousness". Should we intsrumentalists just don't give a damn about the singers and give it all we got, but after all, it's called Rock Band.
The albums that doesn't include instrumentals are "Images and Words", "Octavarium" and "Systematic Chaos". My personal pick would be either IAW or "Octavarium". I mean, to play the title track of the latter would be awesome, since it's 24 minutes long. And no, it's not a 24-minute barrage, but it certainly blisters here and there. But IAW has both "Pull Me Under" and "Metropolis pt.1". Difficult.

[Athalis]

Stadium Arcadium!! It's not exactly heavy rock but some of the guitar riffs and bass lines etc. are excellent and quite a challenge- the game needs funk anyway!!!

[zool152004]

i know this is kinda unfair but seeings how its hard to narrow it down, i'm gonna do a top ten albumns.

system of a down - toxicity
disturbed - ten thousand fists (including bonus track "monster")
slipknot - Vol.3 - The Subliminal Verses
megadeth - greatist hits
queens of the stone age - songs for the deaf

TooL - lateralus (or 10,000 days)
nine inch nails - with teeth
static-x - shadow zone
alient ant farm - anthology
machine head - through the ashes of empires

most of these albumns would work well from start to finish but even some single songs like "toxicity" or "grudge" (tool) would stand out as play through favs.

P.S. Glad to see "go with the flow" on the games songlist, brilliant choice to get the adrenaline pumping

[whofan]

Seeing as 90% of the latest responses are modern albums (which I really don't like, and wouldn't want to see in the game) I'll throw out some classics here:

"Quadrophenia" by The Who
"Painkiller" by Judas Preist
"Are You Experienced?" by The Jimmi Hendrix Experience
"Queen II" by Queen
"Crest Of A Knave" by Jethro Tull
"Back In Black" by AC/DC
"Edge Of The World" by Glenn Tipton, Cozy Powell and John Entwistle
"Break Like The Wind" by Spinal Tap (A variety of styles on this album)
"Heaven and Hull" by Mick Ronson
"Last Of The Independents" by The Pretenders

I'll stop there because I could probably go on for quite some time.

What I'd like to see, but only for it's vocal aspects (there's not much else in the song that will be provided in RB other than some generic drums and bass) is the song "Empty Garden (Hey Hey Johnny)" by Elton John. Like I said, it'd have to be a vocal only song. But the vocals are so great, I'd love to have a go at it

[tharshmetalUK]

Megadeth - Rust in Peace

Metallica - Master of Puppets or Kill em All

Its too hard to choose just one.

I just prefer the two albums I went with *shrugs* they're all good

[karlkaza]

I am a HUGE blink 182 fan and i'd say there greatest hits album.

[gnrneeded]

Two Greatest Hits albums I' d really like to see would be:

Steve Miller's Greatest Hits (1974-1978)
Pure Cult

I think these would be a ton of fun.

[idiotec]

Hey! Greatest Hits are for housewives and little girls! :D

[p0pachery]

The Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables/In God We Trust Inc.
The Violent Femmes - Add It Up
Sublime - 40 oz To Freedom
Operation Ivy - I think its a self title

[Terranova]

for me so far :

Metallica first 4 albums ( although they maybe part of the DLC already, here's hoping)
Iron Maiden.. Powerslave, Number of the beast, Seventh Son,

[zepplinmike]

Def Leppard- Hysteria would make a GREAT downloadable full album. Even if many people wouldn't know more than "Pour Some Sugar On Me" there are 6 or 7 other instantly catchy songs on there. And there's great stuff for all instruments throughout.

[idiotec]

[Blue88]

Hello Master by Priestess if I can only pick one.

Honorable mentions: Appetite for Destruction, Wolfmother, The Blue Album (Weezer,) Something by nirvana, Gorillaz, Broken Boy Soldiers, I don't know Dragonforce albums.

[x3ar23]

dimmu borgirs death cult armeggedon!

[karlkaza]

I would play through all of these songs 10 times if I had to: (album)
Greatest Hits-Blink-182
Take Off Your Pants And Jacket-Blink-182
Blink 182-Blink-182
Don't Need To Whisper-Angels and Airwaves
When Your Heart Stops Beating-+44
Stadium Arcadium-Red Hot Chili Peppers
ReLoad-Metallica

And maybe a few more...........

[Anteraan]

Def Leppard- Hysteria would make a GREAT downloadable full album. Even if many people wouldn't know more than "Pour Some Sugar On Me" there are 6 or 7 other instantly catchy songs on there. And there's great stuff for all instruments throughout.

Agreed (I'd definitely pick that one up), but if i had my pick of one it would be...<drum roll please>

BOSTON - Third Stage (good luck on the vocals, everyone!) :p
So you'd have to skip "The Launch", but to play (and sing) Hollyann at the end would be worth it.

Since the hardcore GH types always want songs that are brutally tough to play on the guitar, I want songs that will require some serious vocal talent - fair enough?

[tmanrocks]

I think I already answered this thread a while back , I'm not hunting through the pages lol

Stratovarius - 14 diamonds : The best of stratovarius (Excuse to play black diamond and hunting high and low and destiny on one CD lol)

The 69 eyes - Angels

Sonata arctica - Ecliptica

I think I would need to change my pants if they announced one of those 3 as DLC lol

[MikeShadows36]

i would pick Breaking Benjamin - Phobia

[Teh_Jakester]

St. Anger hands down.

Yes. That would be good. And fun.

[eespo93]

Definitely Stadium Arcadium. The microphone part would be difficult but fun!! All great songs

[StrikerD]

Definitely Stadium Arcadium. The microphone part would be difficult but fun!! All great songs

Yep, me too, Stadium Arcadium. *RHCP*!

[Weebs43]

Just off the top of my head, probably All That Remains "The Fall of Ideals" album. Everything on that album is sick, especialy the vocals and guitar.

[TheBends]

First Impressions of Earth, The Strokes. Any album by them is really good. They have a rock and alternative sounds, that is why reptillia is in the game already. The Wall would be fun but it over and hour and a half for the entire album. Third would be The Bends by Radiohead because Yorke can sing a song pretty well.

First Impressions of Earth, The Strokes
The Wall, Pink Floyd
The Bends, Radiohead

[cooldude93]

I think the (original) Queen greatest hits.

WW

Hell yeah me too..... or dark side of the moon ... or any led zeppelin album (maybe 2 or 4)

[Chthonic]

This one:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/outfoxed/Albums/Clutch_RobotHiveExodus_R.jpg

[battle_axe_of_doom]

this is tough. idk i'd say either 2112, sgt pepper's (the last 3 or 4 songs is orgasmic for me), abbey road, animals, or still life (by opeth)

[Kang_Zircon]

I think I'd probably go with Boston. Either that or Boston's greatest hits album - which is basically that album + the song Don't Look Back.

[Zidane]

I'd kill for A Night at the Opera and Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Motley Crue's self-titled album debut would be great too.

[JukeBoxHero]

Permanent Waves-Rush
Motion Pictures-Rush
2112-Rush
Dark Side of the Moon -Pink Floyd
Masque-Kansas
Leftoverture-Kansas
Machine Head-Deep Purple
Some Enchanted Evening-Blue Oyster Cult

[stardrex]

I would play DEF LEPPARD's....Hysteria Album Cover to Cover!!!

[TheBends]

Permanent Waves-Rush
Motion Pictures-Rush
2112-Rush
Dark Side of the Moon -Pink Floyd
Masque-Kansas
Leftoverture-Kansas
Machine Head-Deep Purple
Some Enchanted Evening-Blue Oyster Cult

Rush is horrible. I can't even stand to play YYZ. Kansas and Deep Purple would put everyone to sleep and that is Blue Oyster Cult's worst album. I would play Dark Side of the Moon but it is all sound effects so it wouldn't be too great.

The 80s died with your tracklist.

[JukeBoxHero]

If I'm not mistaken, this was about choosing albums that everyone choose from their personal preferences. These are albums I would like to play through and through, I didn't choose mine to appeal to your musical taste.


Topic says it all. If you could play through an album start to finish without leaving any songs out, which one would it be?

[Sora124]

Scenes From A Memory- Dream Theater

I love this album so much, overall, it's Dream Theater's best. Although there are some long instrumental breaks in SFAM, it's still an awesome album to play on Rock Band.

Other ones I'd love to see:

Black Halo by Kamelot
ANThology by Alien Ant Farm
The Human Equation by Ayreon
Vol 1 by Hurt
Countdown to Extinction by Megadeth
Ride the Lightning by Metallica
Ixnay On the Hombre by The Offspring
Damnation by Opeth
In Absentia by Porcupine Tree
Paradise Lost by Symphony X
Toxicity by System of a Down
Fragile by Yes

[A_Perfect_TOOL]

A toss up for me. Aenima by Tool would my first choice. But the How the West Was Won live album by Led Zeppelin would be insane. All those extended, 3 minutes solos would kick serious ass.

[whofan]

This is an easy one!

There are 5 albums I'd love to see added to RB:

1) "Quadrophenia" By The Who (Amazing Drums and Bass, Great Guitars and Vocals make this the quintesential Who album!)

2) "London Calling" By The Clash (Who wouldn't love to just belt out some good old fashioned Punk Rock without worrying too much about carrying a tune? These songs weren't about musical ability (although The Clash were really starting to develop that at this point) it was about the message in the songs. Many of which still hold true today!)

3) "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" By Iron Maiden (Easily one of the IM's best albums and contains some top notch playing, especially on "Infinite Dreams")

4) Use Your Illusion I By Guns 'N Roses (Great Album!)

5) Use Your Illusion II By Guns 'N Roses (Again, just great!)

[R0ck3r]

Alice in Chains - Dirt
http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee215/Buck3thead/AICDirt.jpg

[WingsOfSteel]

Rush is horrible. I can't even stand to play YYZ. Kansas and Deep Purple would put everyone to sleep and that is Blue Oyster Cult's worst album. I would play Dark Side of the Moon but it is all sound effects so it wouldn't be too great.

The 80s died with your tracklist.

Considering your post here (http://community.rockband.com/vbforum/showthread.php?t=4520), it's not surprising that you have horrible, horrible taste in music.

[Sons_of_Kyuss]

Kyuss - Blues For The Red Sun

http://www.stonerrock.com/kyuss/blues/blues.gif

[JukeBoxHero]

Another thing TheBends, if that's the worst Blue Oyster Cult album then what do you think is a good Blue Oyster Cult? I love to see why since you decided to pick my post out of all posts in this thread. This thread is about posting your personal preferences. I wouldn't pick apart your bands if you posted them up here.

[mrblonde885]

Onesidezero - Self Titled (I really hope this ends up as DLC, but I highly doubt it will)
Seether - Karma and Effect
10 Years - The Autumn Effect
Breaking Benjamin - Saturate
Strata - Self Titled
Ashes of Soma - Exit 674

[robg83]

If I wanted a FULL album in Rock Band, it has to be:

1) The Who - Tommy, Who's Next, and Quadrophenia
2) Led Zeppelin - Zoso (IV), Houses Of The Holy, and Physical Graffiti (hell, all of 'em are good)
3) Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, and The Wall
4) Metallica - Ride The Lightning, Master Of Puppets, ...And Justice For All, Black Album
5) Beatles - White Album
6) Van Halen - I, 1984
7) Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers
8) AC/DC - Back In Black, Highway To Hell, High Voltage
9) Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced?, Electric Ladyland
10) Pearl Jam - Ten
11) Nirvana - Nevermind
12) Kiss - Alive!, Destroyer
13) Ozzy Osbourne - Blizzard Of Ozz, Diary Of A Madman
14) Black Sabbath - Paranoid and Master Of Reality
15) Jethro Tull - Aqualung and Thick As A Brick
16) The first three Rhapsody albums

I can go on and on...there's just too many to name right now.

[Trantzz]

"The Great Radio Controversy"-Tesla

[GameWiz68]

Vulgar Display of Power pantera.

[metalhead]

The Clash - London Calling

[redsox91]

My favorite three would be Zoso(IV) by Zeppelin, Toys in the Attic by Aerosmith, and Agents of Fortune by BOC

[KaoAtlas]

Machinehead by Deep Purple, it has Smoke on the Water, Highway Star, Lazy and Space Truckin' to say a few.

[Angel-Jin]

I thought it was just one. Since we're throwing out lists...


Incubus - Make Yourself
Incubus - Morning View
Thursday - War All the Time
Bayside - The Walking Wounded
Boys Night Out - Trainwreck
The White Stripes - Any
Queens of the Stone Age - R
Brand New - The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me
Circa Survive - On Letting Go

[drevel]

Metallica - Master of Puppets.

[Sons_of_Kyuss]

Metallica - Master of Puppets.

Hell yeah! Also, judging by your avatar and signature you would agree with me that Danzig Lucifuge wouldn't be bad either? :)

[MrGrieves]

Pixies- Doolittle
Sonic Youth- Goo
The Mars Volta- Frances The Mute

[shenanigans]

Well, one of my guilty pleasures is an unexplainable love of System of a Down, so as much as I love Steal this Album, i think i would prefer some Toxicity instead. Id be ok with any of them really, though I dont think Mesmerize/Hypnotize would be quite as much fun.

[Sons_of_Kyuss]

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone

http://www.truemetal.org/metalwallpaper/images/dopethrone.jpg

[thesemodernsocks]

Lou Reed- Metal Machine Music

[polishdog90]

Led Zeppelin- Led Zeppelin II
Some classic Zeppelin with Moby Dick a plus for drummers.

Metallica- Master of Puppets
My favorite metal album.

AC/DC- Back in Black
Awesome album. Hey Im not going to be playing drums

The Jimi Hendrix Experience- Are You Experienced
Everybody loves a Hendrix Jam.

Guns N' Roses- Appetite for Destruction
Tons of great songs on this album.

The Clash- London Calling
Some great punk rock.

The Doors- The Doors
Even though there are a lot of keyboard solos I would still love to play this album.

[JudasHendrix]

Stand Up And Shout by Dio.

Please. Oh please.

[danmann861]

Rage Against the Machine - RATM
The Battle of Los Angeles - RATM
The Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
The Wall - Pink Floyd
The Sickness - Disturbed
Out of Exile - Audioslave
Come Clarity - In Flames
Reroute to Remain - In Flames
Infiltrate.Destroy.Rebuild - CKY
The End of Heartache - Killswitch Engage
Stadium Arcadium - RHTCP
Lost and Found - Mudvayne
Ixnay on the Hombray - The Offspring
Americana - The Offspring
Among the Living - Anthrax
Countdown to Destruction - Megadeth

those are just some i'd like to see personally

[twodave]

Personally, even tho it's a live album it would be awesome to see in RB..

Pink Floyd - Pulse

[Chthonic]

4) Metallica - Ride The Lightning, Master Of Puppets, ...And Justice For All, Black Album.

I'd love to see Master of Puppets as DLC for this game (and I'm sure many others would agree).

"Orion" might be a bit dull for the singer, though. :p

[danielman94]

It would probably be either OK Computer or The Bends, by Radiohead.

[DRHewitt]

Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral
The timeless, essential industrial rock album; raw, elaborate and infectious from beginning to end

Silverchair - The Best of Vol. 1
Hauntingly mesmerizing, masochistic melodies (alliteration not intended)

Junior Boys - So This Is Goodbye
Synths and soul; electronic music at its absolute best

[DRHewitt]

This, of course, coming from a true FreQ.

[battle_axe_of_doom]

i'm pretty sure its been mentioned in this thread but QUADROPHENIA

[smokeverbs]

Very tough question, impossible to choose one.

How about "Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me" by the cure?

[archibald27]

Wish You Were Here.


Ahh, as I was about to make a topic about Have a Cigar. <6

Or, danmann861 said, The Wall. Both would be fantastic. In fact, most of the albums mentioned in this thread would be awesome for RB.

[Meatwad12]

I would say that the Album i would want the most would be Train of Thought by Dream Theater. If you have ever heard of it you should know what i'm talking about. The drum beats and guitar are amazing, as well as bass beats. It's overall a phenomenal album. It is progressive rock so it is really technical.

[Meatwad12]

Images and words- dream theater.

John Petrucci Is the sickest guitarist and you would be hard pressed to play 64th notes.
mike portnoy's drums would destroy you.
john myungs bass lines are really hard as well
last but not least James LaBrie's vocals are really high pitched and you could not hit them.

Long story short - NO one would be able to beat these songs on the hardest difficulty.

Hell Yes dude! You know what good music is!

[ThePaska]

I can think of a few actually, albums that I could listen to their entirety and would work very well for Rock Band. If any or all of these came out as DLC I would buy the whole album without a second thought.

Nirvana - Nevermind

Pearl Jam - Ten

Foo Fighters - The Colour And The Shape

Blind Melon - Blind Melon

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Either By The Way or Stadium Arcadium

[Roger_Thompson]

Queensryche's Operation: Mindcrime

I totally agree with that choice. :D

Couple of others I'd pick:

Melissa - Mercyful Fate
Peace Sells... But Who's Buying - Megadeth
Stained Class - Judas Priest

[Kurohana-Aiko]

I'd actually waste $ on MS Points if any of these were DLC:

White Pony Deftones

By the Way Red Hot Chili Peppers

Nevermind Nirvana (only because I don't know if that one was actually confirmed)

I can't decide between the next two though..

Without you I'm Nothing Placebo

or

Black Market Music Placebo

[HPLabonte]

This one:

Bathory - Hammerheart
King Diamond - Abigail
Therion - Lemuria
Elvenking - Heathenreel

[DarthFerguson]

Rubber Soul by the Beatles and 2nd choice would be Pump by Aerosmith.

[Requiem]

Muse-Absolution

[mhg420]

Instrumentally, Quadrophenia is the greatest album ever made. "Who's Next" is great to already have for DLC. But we need Quadrophenia.

[hobbesdream]

Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar
Pink Floyd - The Wall
The Doors - Strange Days
The Beatles - Abbey Road or the white album ;)

That'd be kinda Hard.

I'd say either Black Holes and Revelations by Muse

OR

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

OR

Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd

Those Would be my top three followed by Coheed and Cambria's Double Album Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV

[MCforGuerrillaRadio]

Tenacious D-The Pick of Destiny.
That stuff never get's boring. lawlz. For an actual challenge, though, I'd have to pick Octavarium by Dream Theater. If you haven't heard of the song that shares the title with the album, go listen to it. Want a little description of what it sounds like? 26 minutes of pure shreddage, my friend, 26 minutes of SHREDDAGE!!!
Well, Theres my input.
