I think these would be good insanely hard songs to include in Rock Band to make a challenge because nothing on the list so far seems to be hard at all for the guitar. Most of them have some good drum parts also the bad thing is that they're instrumentals and there's no vocals but they can act as hype makers or make there own lyrics, haha. Sorry about some of the clips I was looking for the best audio.

They need something hard that actually has vocals. Slayer/Megadeth/Judas Priest would please me tremendously.

This is Rock Band, not Guitar Hero, there are some songs in Rock Band with challenging solo's, but if you are looking for Jordan and Through The Fire and The Flames, buy Guitar Hero II & III. If you are looking to play and get a simulated band experience with your friends where every instrument has special parts in a wide-variety of songs, then get Rock Band.

i agree there needs to be songs at the end that are difficult for everyone. Im not playing rock band for a "simulated band experience", Im playing a game. And if I "5 star" (or however theyre rating it) all the songs on expert on guitar in 1 play through Im going to be pissed.

You won't 5 star everything on sightread, I played every song available on the tour, they aren't as easy as you think.

Try 5* expert on vocals then.

Can't sing? No probs, have a go at 5* drums on expert.

Can't play drums? Don't want to play drums/do the vocals? Play GHIII. The choice is simple.

Every so often people complain the songs are too easy but only ever seem to think of the guitar. News for you - there's more to a band (i.e. Rock Band) than the guitar whether you like it or not.

Looking forward to this game - wouldn't be so turned on if it was songs posted at the top of the thread. I like the radio friendly mix of RB and don't want it to be GH with drums. I'll also buy GHIII though ;)

You have the wrong impression of the game. This really is meant to be a multiplayer game. If you think about it, Single Player is only there cuz it has to be. There's a reason why it's called Rock BAND.

Band = A number of people

If you wanted to play by yourself, have fun, just don't go blind.

If they ever do a 3 person or instrumental songs for a download, my vote is for an official version of the custom track Salieri Strikes Back.

Guitar Part: Pretty self-evident. Challenging solos and a rhythm section during the "off" times.

Drum Part: Hard driving beat with some fills and other "drum wankery"

Bass Part: To make this part challenging, the bassist would play the harpsichord part. If you listen to the background, it is always present and would provide a solid challenge to maintain. Sure its a little cheaty, but it would map really well on the fretboard, similar to less talk more rock.
