View Full Version : I don't want Metal, I want...

Among the most requested DLC is for metal bands or similarly heavy stuff. I'm sure I'm not alone in being someone who would be perfectly happy never to see another metal track in Rock Band. I'm not saying I want to deprive others, I'm just saying that the sort of music the majority of people seem to get excited about appearing on Rock Band often doesn't tally with my own tastes.

A lot of metal fans say their genre is underrepresented in RB, and maybe it is, but there are other genres which are represented far less but could work just as well.

I'll throw in Folk Rock as one of those. What non-metal genres would other people like to see represented in the game?

Goth. There isn't a single Goth song in Rock Band, even though there is Goth clothes...

Though I'd love more Metal also.
Or maybe Gothic Metal? :D

Post punk. Is there any? No, there is not.

Ska. Yes, I realize that a lot of ska songs have boring/repetitive guitar parts, that wouldn't quite fit Rock Band. I don't care. I still want ska.

Maybe some pop-punk.

Maybe some Screamo.

But whoever said Ska deserves a medal.
