DLC Suggestions: Songs That Are Unique & Different From What We're Currently Offered!

[DM725]

This thread is dedicated to getting more unique songs added for DLC. Songs that don't sound like anything else in the game thus far and that provide more unique vocal/guitar/bass/and drum parts as well as adding more difficult technical songs (that can still be played on the current drum set up).

Here are some of my suggestions. For the most part I feel like these songs would add a lot of depth and variety to the current songs that are on the game disc and that are available for DLC.

Respond to the poll and feel free to add songs with a youtube link to the audio so that people can hear it.

Comments? Suggestions for other songs? (Youtube Link)

[Crowman121]

yea thats awesome we really do need songs that are so wicked cool and unique and youre list covered great songs too! :D Paranoid Android ftw :p Radiohead - Permanent Daylight http://youtube.com/watch?v=t6rqUhEyzGM

[Haruhara]

Personal Highlights

46 & 2
La Villa Strangiato
Hysteria
Roulette Dares
Caffine
Colony of Birchman
Orestes
The Girls of Porn

[litaljohn]

umm i fail to see how all those bands were unique and different considering that some of the names on the list are actually in the game........

the only different genre of rock so to speak would be modern country rock, as apposed to southern rock, which is a bit more timely, like marshall tucker.

SO i guess the only one i could think of would be save a horse ride a cowboy from big and rich

[toad3000]

The Mars Volta's Haunt of Roulette Dares in Rock Band, huh? That's...a bold idea. I'd be all for trying it tho.

[BrutalBrian]

You have asked for Opeth, that automatically makes this thread win.

[Solocrono]

I like alot of the stuff on this list, I agree with all of it, except for the Mr. Bungle song lol... while it would be a fun song to play, I don't think it would be aloud... but a song like Quote Unquote from Bungle would be good. I think Depeche Mode would be a good addition to Rock Band. I also think, while not "different", a good addition would be some Green Day old and new.

Are you ok dude? Just because the Genre isn't different doesn't mean they songs are unique....

The way the songs are formed are what makes them unique. Something as simple as a different vocal tone then any other song in Rock Band or maybe a time signature or just an all around out there tune is what the list is comprised of.....

[Tralfmadorian]

To that list I would like to add "Atlas" by Battles

[Robblar]

Hoobastank - Finally Awake

DO IT

[universalguru]

Wow Mars Volta would be crazy... but my #1 song to add to this game has got to be Paranoid Android by Radiohead!!!

[Blackcat914]

I would also recommend Suicidal Tendencies - How Can I Laugh Tomorrow...

And maybe Offspring - Original Prankster

[MattyJames]

I like it!! There are many songs in that list that I would download....Solid choices!!!

v Check out my Ultimate Setlist in the link below for more suggestions. v ;)

[DM725]

If they trimmed down the middle of Cicatriz ESP I would suggest that Mars Volta tune but Roulette Dares is pretty sweet without editing so I put that song.

[They Call Me The Swede]

hmmmmmm I like your selections, hope to see them in the future.

[Eshara]

I want to add to the list of Artists already there. These songs I would especially like more:

The Cardigans - Erase / Rewind
The Cardigans - My Favorite Game

A Perfect Circle - Judith (LOVE this song)

Tool - Schism
Tool - Vicarious

Muse - Stockholm Syndrome

[DM725]

To the 2 people so far that have voted "I Don't Like Any of Those Songs" I think we are all interested to know what music you listen, I'm always up for a good laugh.

[AngryMonkey]

Throw in some Live and I'll take it.

On the Metal side I would love to try Darkest Hour

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cn3RQAeGh8&feature=related

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWpsApLMDc&feature=related

Once again neeeed double bass pedal :P

[a21schizoidman]

Super Bowl Shuffle
and
Ghostbusters theme song

[DM725]

Well the whole basis of my song selection had a lot to do with whether or not it is currently playable as the drum kit stands. Otherwise I would have added a lot more Metal songs.

And yea Ray Park Jr. - Ghostbusters Theme would be pretty amazing!

[nightrain78]

I would download about half the songs on that list. Add some more Shadows Fall and that'd be a lot of fun. Maybe some Valient Thorr, too, if you remember Fall of Pangea from GH2

[NoLifeKing1331]

I Like a lot of what you got on that list especially the Mike Patton stuff.
I started a thread with some unique music, guess I should have posted it here.
http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35375

Id love tosee some Misfist too
skulls, die die my darling, and all hell breaks loose.

I be realy wild to see Skinny Puppy
or KMFDM.

[Add-Rock44]

Hmmm... solid choices so far.

And now for something completely different...

The Proclaimers - "(I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles"

[DM725]

The Proclaimers? Wow I don't think I've even heard them referenced in at least 5 years....

[MattyJames]

Alright man, Here are the songs in your list that I would download ;)

Alice in Chains - I Stay Away
Anthrax - Medusa
As I Lay Dying - I Never Wanted
Cake - The Distance
Deftones - My Own Summer
Faith No More – Caffeine
Faith No More - Zombie Eaters
Guns N Roses - Night Train
In Flames - Leeches
Incubus - A Certain Shade of Green
Living Colour - Cult of Personality
Mr. Bungle - The Girls of Porn (Good Call!!!)
Muse - Hysteria
Our Lady Peace - One Man Army
Pearl Jam - Animal
Queen - Fat Bottomed Girls
Radiohead - Paranoid Android
Rage Against the Machine - Take the Power Back
Sevendust - Failure
System of a Down - Sugar
System of a Down - Spiders
Tool - Forty Six & 2
Tool - Prison Sex
Weezer - Susanne

Nice mix of songs.

[DM725]

That certainly is a lot of songs you'd be willing to download. This thread ended up being a much bigger hit than I anticipated, I'm glad I took the time to go through my itunes and pick out these songs.

I'm still interested in hearing from the 2 people that voted they don't like any of the songs on my list, I really want to know what kind of music it is that they listen to because the only genre I didn't hit was Emo....

[Ghostbuster]

Deftones please.

[Clutch112105]

I would consider buying maybe 10-15 of those songs, but not all of them.

[Nonikhvenz]

these are pretty good songs to what they have out there now I wish they could do some of these songs but no they do some *** ass paramore

[Spekkio]

Triumph - Fight the Good Fight.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeBnZWOfCWk&feature=related

Canadian Arena Rock? Yes Please.

Also:

Lunatic Fringe - Red Rider
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp9852hq0W0

We don't really have anything like LF, it'd be interesting to play something deeper.

[DethByAudio]

im pretty sure thats just a list of songs you want and dont really or barely have anything to do with eachother

some good songs but a random *ss list

[Pizza7]

This is easily one of the best lists I have seen. Might I add one more?

Volbeat - A Moment Forever
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hy3rnIHKBI4

Very unique, very fun.

[DM725]

im pretty sure thats just a list of songs you want and dont really or barely have anything to do with eachother

Well the point is that they are random guy... They are unique and unlike eachother and unlike other songs in the game.

If it was a list of songs I want there would be a lol more Death Metal and stuff that isn't playable on the current drum kit. I also would have left out some of the stuff on my list and replaced it with more obscure songs by some of those bands.

[They Call Me The Swede]

Thats not even all, this is just a brief list, to see the whole thing...I'll post a link later...

[DM725]

Green Jelly - Three Little Pigs would be crazy

How come your list goes from Artis - Song Title to Song Title - Artist? That is pretty confusing.....

[They Call Me The Swede]

Green Jelly - Three Little Pigs would be crazy

How come your list goes from Artis - Song Title to Song Title - Artist? That is pretty confusing.....

Its because the first 3 was on top of my head, and rest I just copyed it and paste it in the list. Sorry for the confusion.

[pmpboarder]

Cake - Nugget
http://youtube.com/watch?v=gHAFoDsYEGw&feature=related


My thoughts on why "Nugget" can't be in Rock Band, what with the censorship of a song originally called "Shut the F_uck Up". (http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25101#inappropriate)

That said, helluva list! I love basically all of it!

Do you mind voting for those two (and anymore you may want) again in that thread I linked to (also found in my sig)? Much appreciated. :cool:

[DM725]

Yea I voted in your thread way back. I don't even think it is debatable that Cake is definately needed for DLC.

I'm glad you liked just about all of the set list.

How come those 3 people that voted they don't like ANY songs that I suggested won't tell us what kind of music they listen to and what bands they like?

[Heavens Fury_X]

That's pretty cool, but you're missing some good ones. What about Mindless Self Indulgence, Marilyn Manson, or Otep?

[DM725]

Marilyn Manson would have to be The Beautiful People because of the drum beat.

[pmpboarder]

Yea I voted in your thread way back. I don't even think it is debatable that Cake is definately needed for DLC.

Oh, cool. Thanks! What you say is true - there's no debate.

You should be glad! You have great taste in music! :D

[DM725]

Bump because some idiot made this exact thread and should have just added to it.....

[GlassPrisoner]

Yeah Spin Doctors! They would be great in Rock Band.

[GlassPrisoner]

Jamiroquai - Canned Heat (http://youtube.com/watch?v=X1VRzlPaJLg)
That song was in Elite Beat Agents on the Nintendo DS and I think it would be awesome in Rock Band.

[Highlandlassie1]

Some are good, some not so good.

As much as I want more Rush, why would you pick an instumental?

That wont happen in Rockband, what is the singer supposed to do?

[DM725]

Considering that not everyone has 4 people on......ever, an instrumental that is amazing should be considered.

Canned Heat doesn't have enough guitar, which is why I chose Black Devil Car.

[DM725]

I don't like any of those songs... 6 Votes 8.57%

Is one of you 6 going to admit to the kind of music u listen to if you can't find a song or a band you like in that list?

[DM725]

I forgot about Days of the New:

The Downtown
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McsWROkrzU0

Touch, Peel, and Stand
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sY57T9kbLBo

I'd love it!

[Colt_Steele]

I voted option 4, but I give you credit for mentioning Monster Magnet, and as I've stated before, I think A Perfect Circle would make great content for RB.

[DM725]

Yes APC would be amazing for RB!

[darlenerules14]

great suggestions.

This game needs Sultans of Swing and Hysteria

[DM725]

Why Thank You Kind Sir
