I agree completely. I'd love to see the DLC be nicely split between classic rock and the newer stuff, though my taste leans toward more of the classic stuff. And of the classic stuff, RUSH, along with BOSTON, would appeal to an awful lot of classic rock fans. Staying on topic here, RUSH would be fantastic because the bass parts are a huge part of their songs, and Peart's drum work is beyond reproach. There is fun for everyone with the RUSH classics, as long as the keyboards can be worked around.

I'd like to see Spirit of Radio on RB (only Rush song I know besides YYZ and Tom Sawyer, I don't listen to them much...). But it goes a while without any singing. Can anybody tell me any awesome Rush songs to listen to?

I could list so many "favorites" of mine from Rush that I would enjoy playing in Rock Band.

My thread post would likely fill up the whole screen. . . so to save time and space :

"I agree with everything you have all said so far, especially for 2112 and limelight."

I think 2112 permanent waves and moving pictures would be the obvious three top choices...something for nothing and twilight zone on RB....uuhhhh *0rgasm*!!!!! The good thing about having more Rush in this game (and the reason why I think it's bound to happen) is that it would increase the interest in BASS. Nobody really wants to play bass, but if you give me 2112 or something, hook me up with the low end baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL

yes, I noticed that the song selection plays fairly well to bass. Many groups and songs are not going to extremely boring on bass it seems.

You've got Rush, super awesome bass with frequent speed change-ups through the songs

You've got Red Hot Chili Peppers, crazy Flea.

Those are the two that stood out to me as 'for sure bass attraction,' but in listening to more songs off the list, I think bass will be good through nearly all the songs.

I'm a huuuuge Rush fan, and I personally think any/all Rush would be great in Rock Band. All the parts present their own challenges and rewards.
I do wish they had put Freewill in the game instead of Tom Sawyer (that amazing solo section, anyone?), but hopefully we'll get full albums (of master tracks!) for download real soon.

Well, there you go - democracy in action! A dissenting vote! As someone who owns Moving Pictures and 2112, I loathe Rush and would prefer they not eat up valuable game content development time over a band that actually rocks. I can't remember a more 'ugh...' videogame moment than when I got the GHII encore and freaking baby-boomer doo-d-doo-d-d-doo-doo gym-workout-classic YYZ bull**** showed up. Ick. I can appreciate that some many people here seem to love 'em, but I can't think of many bands that are more lame/irritating/pretentious/just-do-not-rock that Rush.

11-20-2007, 10:24 AM
I cant' imagine a band that is better suited for this game. A few of my favourites:

Limelight
Subdivisions
Test for Echo
Animate
Far Cry
The Spirit of Radio
Between the Wheels
Fly by Night

However, please use master tracks. I saw a few previews on youtube and thought that the player doing the vocals was horrible, then I saw just someone playing the guitar and realized that those were the actual in game vocals. While the rest of the song sounds at least half-decent, it's just not the same as the original.

You can go down to your local pub on open mic night and find better drummers than that Slipknot guy.
Ok i'm being facetious... he's got great skills, and is probably one of the best metal drummers out there (still not as good as the guy from strapping young lad - can't remember his name) but to compare him to the greats... COME ON!! Peart, John Bonham, Ginger Baker, Rick Allen, Buddy Rich. I'm a big metal fan, but you can't compare to the greats.

And didn't Tommy lee do that stupid rotating/inverting drum kit back in the 80's?

Ensanguine
11-27-2007, 06:00 PM
It's much better when Peart does it, since he's much better than mediocre.

Also, any Rush song, minus the synth stuff(Subdivisions and the like) would be perfect for this game and I'd buy them in an instant.

MORE RUSH PLEASE.

Black Flame Zealot
11-28-2007, 06:33 PM
I completely agree with more content. I'm a hardcore Rush fan - been listening to them for almost 20 years now - I've seen them half a dozen times in concert, and own more Rush stuff than anyone else I know.

I think these are the aspects for a Rush song that need to be kept in mind to make it a great inclusion for Rock Band:

1. It can't be too long. 2112 is amazingly awesome, but it's a whole side of the album, and it has very long periods of vocal drought.

2. It has to be recognizable enough to most folks that listen to album-oriented rock, prog rock, or classic rock. In other words, songs you probably heard/still hear on the radio. I love the hell out of Bastille Day, Cygnus X-1, Cinderella Man, Natural Science, Witch Hunt, Jacob's Ladder, The Pass, Bravado, Manhattan Project, etc. but I know that most folks that are not big Rush fans don't know these songs at all.

3. Touched on in point 1, but the song needs to have interesting stuff for everyone involved - Rush has plenty of great instrumental pieces, but with no talkie bits it makes it less-than-ideal for inclusion.

Now, with that in mind, here's what I'd consider a solid 3-pack that most folks who are at least passingly familiar with the band (and those of us that are die-hard Rush junkies) would probably be very happy with:

The Trees (Hemispheres)
Spirit of Radio (Permanent Waves)
Limelight (Moving Pictures)

There are just so many damn good Rush songs that it's hard to choose just a few. While I absolutely love Freewill, I wanted to choose 3 songs off of different albums, and I think that Spirit of Radio is probably a little more mainstream. In my ideal world they'd give Rush the Grateful Dead treatment and have 15-20 songs available. However, I'd be a very happy guy with just 3 more songs.

Another very interesting idea would be to throw one of their newest songs from Snakes & Arrows on a pack... if that were the case Workin' Them Angels or Far Cry should probably go in there.

(Alas, I wish I could lobby for the inclusion of my favorite song, Red Barchetta, but I don't think it makes the cut since it's not as recognizable as the three listed above.)

I totally agree with Black Flame Zealot.... However, I'd keep Freewill in there but totally Spirit of Radio and Limelight. For a bass part I don't know if it gets better than Red Barchetta and I'd love to see that..

I have to admit... I'm somewhat of a new Rush fan... always liked them but got their R30 DVD a year and a half ago and watched that and decided I was going to start buying Rush albums and would make a point to see them if I ever had the chance. About crapped my pants when they announced they were going on tour this summer- was row 13 in Denver and have to say they're by far my favorite band- kicking myself for not getting into them earlier. The musicianship of all three in one band is just second to none.

To Harmonix...

I will buy any and all Rush DLC the day it is released, the more the merrier.

To the guy who thinks Slipknot has the best drummer ever...
I can go find some sprinter who can stomp a double bass pedal faster than your boy Joey. You obviously like speed and 'ol Buddy Rich played more notes in 10 seconds than Joey did in that whole solo minus the sprint on the kick pedals... If you think he's an engineer and pioneer in the whole drumkit thing... Check out the Motley Crue Video for "Wild Side"- Tommy Lee already did it (way better in fact- spinning upside down and over the crowd) in 1987, but what was that? 4 years before you were born???

12-24-2007, 11:07 PM
I Would just LOVE to see Spirit of the Radio in Rock Band. The vocals in that are amazing. If not that I think that Limelight or Fly by Night would be awesome.

Overall, yeah Rock Band needs more Rush!

You know 2112 would be a beast for everyone to play. I'd be especially fun for the singer, because it's like you're telling a story. Plus, you get a short solo in there a la "When You Were Young".

Most of the rest of the album is great, too, so whole album DL please! :D

Btw, anyone else unimpressed with the RB cover of Limelight? :( I love the song, but I didn't think the cover was very good, nor do I think that's the best Rush song for this game.....

Mc36x2
01-11-2008, 03:23 PM
More Rush! Fewer covers.

When I listen to music now I seperate the guitar, bass, drums and vocals in my head and I think Dreamline would be a blast.

Red Barchetta, Time Stand Still, The Trees, Roll the Bones would be near the top of the list. Limelight is at the top of the list and I'd buy it again to get a master.

I'll take any Rush I can get.

DrEvyl666
01-19-2008, 07:19 PM
I still think they need some newer Rush material in there, at least something from the last decade or so anyway... they have a ton of awesome material.

I think "Driven" would probably be the ultimate Rock Band song out of their newer material... awesome drums, awesome guitar, cool vocal line, killer off-time groove, and as a group it would be a blast to play. By the time you got to the last 30 seconds of the song, you'd probably be jamming so hard you'd break the instruments to pieces.

Others out of their newer stuff that would be cool.... "Show Don't Tell"... "Roll The Bones"... "The Way The Wind Blows" ... "Workin' Them Angels".... "Stick It Out"... "Test For Echo"

2112 would be awesome, but if you just did the opening there's no vocals, and I dunno who could sing Temples of Syrinx besides a chick - Geddy can't even sing that stuff any more.. LOL.


Oh, and once again NO MORE COVERS!!! I want some REAL RUSH stuff... the only people who sound good playing Rush songs are named Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee and Neil Peart!

IxSaintKnightxI
03-21-2008, 01:08 PM
2112 (the shorter version on The Spirit of Radio album) and Fly By Night would be great. I can't think of a 3rd song...so many good ones to choose from....Although I'd rather not have a cover song from them though.

k-mac
03-21-2008, 01:32 PM
if the Grateful Dead get a six-pack, then Rush should definately get a six-pack too. pretty much any one of their songs would be incredibly fun to play.
Bring on some:
Free Will
The Big Money
Fly By Night
Closer to the Heart
Spirit of Radio
La Villa Strangiato (i know it's an instumental, but give us a break here - i'm pretty sure they could find something for the vocalist to do)

FoxDemon_189
03-21-2008, 01:46 PM
All I have to say is Spirit of the Radio would be an EXCELLENT addition to the rock band setlist. An excellent Guitar riff, The bass is complicated, The singing is consistant, and the drums... its Neil Pearts most excellent showcase on what he can do on the drums.

ctaylor
03-21-2008, 02:01 PM
I'm all for more Rush, and I'll buy new DLC the moment it comes out. But, please, no more covers. Master tracks only. The covers just don't do Rush justice.

Don't act like he isn't in the same league.

not even close, Don Brewer, Ginger Baker, Stewart Copeland, Terry Bozzio, Michael Giles, Clem Burke, Carmen Appice, Keith Moon, Chuck Ruff, Mitch Mitchell, Buddy Miles, Ian Paice, Ron Wilson, Mel Taylor, Danny Seraphine, Nick Mason, Jeff Porcaro - all better than Bonham, (note: I like Zeppelin, but bonham is far from the best)

I would like some more Rush, but not right away, just like the Police and Metallica, they should release them in December or so, considering there are 1000s of other good bands out there not even in the game yet, but in the future I would def. like to see 2112, The Trees, Closer to the Heart, Freewill, Subdivisions, Red Barchetta, New World Man, Distant Early Warning, Fly By Night, Bastille Day, Manhattan Project, Working Them Angels, The Spirit of Radio, La Villa Strangiato, Passage to Bangkok, Red Sector A, Anthem, Finding My Way, Farewell to Kings, Far Cry, and Xanadu

04-06-2008, 03:01 PM
I'd like to see 2112, but it's probably too long.

"A Passage to Bangkok," "Lessons," and "A Farewell to Kings" would all be good in the game, IMO.

There ya go - My ideas for the next Boston style superpack.

-Axuim-
04-26-2008, 11:01 AM
Well in my opinion they should just make the whole 2112 album and release it, but of course if they did the whole Chronicles album I would be happy :)

Atariwolf
04-26-2008, 01:05 PM
Let me think...I'd obviously want all of em, but to save time and money and such, here's a 6 pack from them I'd love to see.

Closer to the Heart
The Spirit of the Radio
The Trees
Distant Early Warning
Fly By Night
Far Cry

Edit: Oh yeah, and the entire 2112 Album would be a nice way to top it all off :P

JukeBoxHero
04-26-2008, 02:22 PM
I'm watched the thread from afar but I don't think I ever posted in this thread. I would love to see more Rush in Rock Band, preferably with master tracks for the next Rush release. The Harmonix cover team does fairly with the instruments but they can't not imitate Geddy Lee's voice well.

Anyway if we were to see any album downloads from Rush, 2112 and A Farewell to Kings would be fine for Rock Band. 2112 and A Farewell to Kings have good instrumentals and in my opinions to the sing the words from any of those songs would be awesome. 2112 has a popular progressive rock concept song. A Farewell to Kings have very interesting percussion pieces and Closer to The Heart(one of Rush's more popular tracks and would be worth at least one download to those who don't listen to Rush much).

Edit:I just read what what was said in page 16 and I have retracted this tidbit of my post.

Videovertigo
04-26-2008, 03:05 PM
I would love to see something form lesser know or more popular Rush songs such as Grace under pressure (Red Sector A) or counterparts like (Animate). Even something form Roll the Bone would kill. Mystic Rhythms would be sick too. Subdivisions too.
How bout just every rush song and call it even.

JukeBoxHero
04-26-2008, 05:11 PM
Lesser known Rush songs you say? Then how the 18 minute song Hemispheres from Hemispheres. I would love to do all the parts on this song if it came to Rock Band.

Rush rules. End of discussion.

Anyone think the following is true? Taken from NeoGAF forums;

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=309870


Rumors: Silocon Knights Up For Sale (Wha?!), Tim Schafer unhappy with Activision merger and looks to shop Brutal Legend around, and a snippet saying Rush's Moving Pictures is next Rock Band DLC album after The Pixies' Doolittle. Not many rumors this issue unless it's in another segment or something.

:eek:

Think I 'gasmed.

Maybe w/ master versions of Tom Sawyer and Limelight? I'd buy Limelight again in a New York minute.

*EDIT* Whoops! just located the big thread about this in the Rock Band section.

That song is incredible, would be great to see it in RB. Other awesome songs would be Fly By Night, Bastille Day, Jacob's Ladder (though the vocals are a bit sparse), and Digital Man. Far Cry would be cool too.

With a band like Rush, you really can't go wrong, everything they've done is stellar. :D

Why more Rush in RB? Because it's so much more interesting than the 3 chord blues- oriented 4/4 time stuff that most "classic rock" is. Of course I want The Spirit of Radio but my vote for the Rush "must have" song on RB is Natural Science. That song, like 2112, Xanadu, Hemispheres X-1,2 before it, are epic, progressive rock classics.

Oh yeah. There's definietly zero demand for any more rush. If Harmonix keeps giving us Rush and ignoring all other kinds of other bands that are requested way more. I am definietly deleting all of my DLC, smashing my rock band disk and ripping my ears off.

:rolleyes:

Why does something tell me that every RUSH thread that has 1,000,000+ votes for more rush material should be shown to everyone who posts in these forums, just to remove any confusion?

There's a reason Rush might be so overrepresented; because they've so much kick A$$ music that a single DLC release can't cover them like other 3-hit wonders.

Hemispheres Full Album comes first~ with "The Trees" already on RB2. It would be awesome if they split up "Hemispheres" into the different sections, that way we would get to play all of it. I really wanna play that and "La Villa Strangiato"~ and "Circumstances" would be cool as well.

On top of "The Spirit of Radio" and "Freewill"~ I'd really wanna see more from Signals~
"The Analog Kid", "Chemistry" along with "Subdivisions"~ Also~ "Territories" from Power Windows

I wouldn't like to see more Rush. I think the lead singer is horrible, like nails on a chalkboard horrible. If all of their songs were like YYZ then maybe I'd want more. I'd like to see some bands that haven't already been represented to death in these games.

It's really my ultimate dream to play "Hemispheres" on Rock Band~ if we end up getting it, I would play it nonstop. All they have to do is split it up like this~

Hemispheres Part 1
I: Prelude – 4:27

II: Apollo Bringer of Wisdom / III: Dionysus Bringer of Love – 4:36
IV: Armageddon The Battle of Heart and Mind – 2:55

V: Cygnus Bringer of Balance – 5:01
VI: The Sphere A Kind of Dream – 1:02

Something like that~

Rush is a love em or hate em band ... i havent met too many in betweeners .... the ones who love em most of the time are ones who actually play in bands .... they can apreciate how freakin hard that music is ... adding more Rush to the RB set makes for a greater challenge for the "backbone" players (bass/drums) leave bands like Megadeth to give the guitar players blisters .... perhaps we could get some Primus (old Primus like tails from the punchbowl and earlier when Herb was still in the band) to give these backbone players a challenge too

Nope, you didn't. It's Malignant Narcissism. =P

Anyways, I'd love to see 2112 on RB right away. By right away, I mean right away. Before Christmas. Please? Actually, just do a Rock Band: Rush. That'd be much better. And put, like, all of their songs on it. Yeah.

You took out~ Hemispheres, La Villa Strangiato, The Analog Kid, and Xanadu?

You'd rather have Circumstances than La Villa and Hemispheres...

Well, I definitely like my list better~ lol

I hadnt really heard of Rush until I bought Roll the Bones - so it would be pretty good to see some of those tracks on RB -- although brother in law is heavily into Rush - took me to see them at Sheffield on the Roll the Bones tour and got hooked..

Anyway thought Geddy was going to join a new band after they got kicked off playing Tom Sawyer on Rock band on youtube:p

well La Villa Strangiato is good same with Xanadu... but those are just my personal favourites that i included...
Circumstances is a great song!

oh and i'd take Red Sector A over the Analog Kid... that song just sticks in my head

I actually haven't heard the songs you mentioned aside from Red Sector A, Circumstances, and Distant Early Warning~

I don't know about Red Sector A over Analog Kid~ the Analog Kid guitar riff/solo is just too appealing. One of Lifeson's best by far~

Distant Early Warning would be awesome~ I wouldn't mind that instead of Between the Wheels

Circumstances is good, but Hemispheres is my favorite Rush song~
Though if I had it my way~ we would definitely have all of Hemispheres for DLC~

Look, I love Rush. However, there are 10 Rush songs already available. Contrast the fact there are only 8 other songs in the whole prog genre and it becomes a bit unbalanced.

I think Harmonix should branch out in to other prog bands before releasing more Rush. Even if they're the best band the genre has to offer, a bit of variety won't kill anyone.

I'd like to see more Rush, but also more Prog in general. Some Jethro Tull, maybe? As for Rush, I'd kill for a 3-pack with these:

The Spirit of Radio
2112
Fly By Night

D3M0NB4RB3R
02-16-2009, 02:58 AM
The Spirit of Radio
Natural Science

ALL of Power Windows

Force Ten

La Villa Strangiato (A Lesson in Self Indulgence)

2112

Fly by Night

That is my list of requests for RUSH DLC that I would love to play on Rock Band [2]. Even at 1,000 MSP's per song.
What do you think of my list of requests?

lerxstsnowdog
02-18-2009, 01:22 AM
During a spare minute at work today, I came up with a list of Rush songs I think Harmonix should package together for a stand alone game, much like the AC/DC Live thing (only this would be waaaaaay better). I chose 1-3 songs from each album I think would be a blast to play. The list does not include any of the previously released DLC's.

Before getting to the list, though, in the process of thinking about what to include, two albums stood out as no-brainers to release in their entirity; A Farewell To Kings and Permanent Waves. I would also argue that Snakes & Arrows should be given the full album treatment as well. Anyway, here's what I came up with in chronological order. The highlighted songs are absolute essential must-haves...

Finding My Way
Anthem
Bytor & The Snowdog
Bastille Day
The Necromancer
2112
A Farewell To Kings
Xanadu
Cygnus X-1
La Villa Strangiato
The Spirit Of Radio
Freewill
Natural Science
The Analog Kid
Distant Early Warning
The Big Money
Marathon
Force Ten
Time Stand Still
War Paint
Where's My Thing?
Dreamline (live version)
Bravado (live version)
Cut To The Chase
Double Agent
Driven
One Little Victory
Ceiling Unlimited
Secret Touch
Far Cry
The Main Monkey Business
Hope
Malignant Narcissism
and last but certainly not least...
any one of Neil Peart's drum solos from a live album
(the classic choice would be from All The World's A Stage, the classy choice would be from Snakes & Arrows Live)

This list might be a pipe dream, to be sure, but even if they did any of the highlighted songs that's be so sah-weet! :cool:

Awesome list~ but no Hemispheres? If not the whole song, we should get the Prelude at the very least. :D
Or the first 12 minutes, and leave out Cygnus: Bringer of Balance, as awesome as it is.

And really? No Fly By Night on your list either?

02-22-2009, 04:02 PM
I think "Rush Full Discography: 1974 - 1980" would be awesome DLC. Then some select singles from post Moving Pictures albums.
