We all love em. I know I do. Who doesn't want extra tracks like in the past GH games. Tracks like Trogdor, Thunderhorse, and Push Push (Lady Lightning) were amazing and really fun to play.
What songs do you want was extra trakcs in Rock Band?

I've come across a few songs I think would be very fun for extras in Rock Band.

Power Rangers Theme Song
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Fu_0XU_2o_E

Seriously. Listen to it before you criticize. It's got good vocals, drums, bass and guitar. Plus, can you imagine how funny it'd be playing this with your friends? :D

Ok. Which ones do you wanna see?

Actually yeah, Power Rangers Theme song would be a cool bonus song

I quite liked most of the bonus bands and songs in Guitar Hero 2 (never played GH1)
and they opened me up to some new music,... Shadows Fall, Bang Camaro etc.

It would be funny to play that with your friends!
I say YES! :D :D

Definately more Bang Camaro, those guys rule and it is a pretty good possibility since their guitarist Bryn I think his name is works for HMX. Maybe Swallow the Razor for a bonus song?

If any other songs by them are anything like the greatness of Push Push (Lady Lightning), I'm all for it. I love that song.

Here's a song that'd be a fun extra:

Oh man, if the Power Rangers theme song was in RB I'd do nothing but play that song, over and over and over again.

Although Take On Me is a good song, I'd rather have the original in RB; Reel Big Fish doesn't quite do A-Ha justice.

And thanks!

You know, I was honestly debating which one I'd rather have in. I like both versions, but being the 90s child I am whose parents raised him musically in the 80s, I like the A-HA version better. But that version is heavily based around keyboard and synth, whereas the RBF version has a solid bass line, good guitar, and pretty good vocals and drums. There's method to my madness, see? :D
However, if there was ever to be a keyboard perepherial, you know which one I'd choose. :)

I'd do anything for Power Rangers theme.

Tenacious D would also be pretty cool.
And I seriously think that Trogdor should be in Rock Band, even if it's already been in GH2. I mean, who in their right mind wouldn't want to scream TROGDOR!!!! as loud as they can?

Yeah, I want another song related to H*R.
So far, we've had
Trogdor - Strong Bad
Because It's Midnite - Limozeen

I think we should have another Limozeen song, maybe Nite Mamas?

I can't find a link for the song, though. :(

Haven't heard that song, but if it's equally awesome and fun to play as Trogdor, I'm all for it.

Who cares? Tribute is fuhreaking awesome. My friend and I have broke out into singing Tribute twice in the past two weeks of school.

Schultzy
09-02-2007, 06:35 AM
It doesn't matter that it's overdone, it's the message behind the song.
I can see the loading screen now:

...and we said "Nay; we are but men. ROCK!" :D

In other news, this song would be a fun extra, I kinda wanted it to be an actual track but then I realized that it's really good for an extra.

Want You Bad - The Offspring
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Vk_y2hNFptI

Along with this I have a question. The song Brain Power by Freezepop, is that a bonus track or an actual track that you play in career mode?

skeltonath

Tribute is excellent choice, but I would rather have Wonderboy, or the song Tribute is "based" on, Beelzeboss! Of course, it would never get in because of the sheer amount of swearing, but it would be awesome to play.
But seriously, Tribute does swear once or twice. They could edit it out, but Wonderboy doesn't have any bad words so it's probably more likely to get in.

Hrm... I've always wanted to cover the Power Rangers themesong. it's just very awesome.

My singer and I (IRLB - in real life band) want to cover "Fhqwhgads (http://homestarrunner.com/fhqwhgads.html)". "Dangeresque" would be good too.

@ KillerIsMe - "Nite Mamas" is another Limozeen song, so it'll be like "Because It's Midnite"

Seriously though, we're looking at a Grim Ripper song (probably no Drist), we've already got Freezepop confirmed... Probably more Bang Camaro, hopefully more Dethklok (Cause "Thunderhorse" is just way too fun), more beantown punk bands possibly, and dare I suggest it, another Made In Mexico song? I hope it's better than "Yes We Can".

Then again, Pip farting on a snare drum sounds better than that song. No offense to the band or it's fans. Just sayin'.

New idea!

Albuquerque - "Weird Al" Yankovic

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Xkxtb6REaqI
Don't mind the music video, just listen to the song.
Yes, it's 11 minutes long...11 minutes of AWESOMENESS!!! :D

This COULD work as an extra...maybe...:rolleyes:

Considering the worst songs from the first games were bonus (Sail Your Ship By,Trogdor and the would've been bonus Because it's Midnite) I can't really say I'm looking forward to it.

More Vagiant,Bang Camero,Graveyard BBQ,Anarchy Club and Black Label Society would be ok. Already have Freezepop. Just don't get into pulling crap from cartoons and off the internet or cartoons that are on the internet.

Power Rangers theme? Well played, good sir!

Seeing as the bonus area isn't going to be songs for the mass appeal, I say they indulge and use this area for crazy guitar work, drum solos, and whatever else that people are feeling a little light from the main career. Amiryte or wut guize?

The Three H*R songs

-Trogdor --- Strong Bad
-Nite Mamas --- Limozeen
-Because, It's Midnite --- Limozeen

And of course the Power Rangers Theme Song ;)

And this one would just be great for the opening screen.

"Working Class Hero: Made Famous by John Lennon, but performed by Green Day"

Nite Mamas video btw, but whoever made it didnt consider sound so pop in some headphones and crank music all the way up to hear it...

Brilliant idea, Nick! Although this has to be DLC. It would be totally worthless to have as an on-game bonus song that's been edited to "America, Hell Yeah!" Sounds more like an actual song and less like satire.

This is my back-up band...a shark!

That's where I got my avatar from! :D

And concerning Hardware Store over Albuquerque; do you know how physically impossible it is to sing all that (except for Weird Al himself). The guitar, drums, and bass are actually very good, but the vocals would be unbearable. Plus, it isn't nearly as epic a song as Albuquerque. I mean, c'mon, It's 11 minutes of Stairway-level greatness on the epic song scale! My vote rests with Albuquerque.

And the Power Rangers theme. :D

Hardware Store would be the Jordan of vocals, if it were in. ;)

but yes, i agree with your point on albuquerque over hardware store in general.

power rangers theme still one of my top picks though.
