2/16/10 DLC Discussion - Otis Redding and 4 Other New Artists

[howieduen]

Even though I only like (and will probably only purchase) a few of these tracks, I have to admit that this is probably one of the single coolest weeks of DLC that HMX has ever released. And I'm basing this solely on the amount of variety and amount of new artists being brought to the platform in one week's time. Massive kudos to HMX!

Five NEW to Rock Band bands this week! Discuss!

This is horrible. The only song im buying is weightless. that will be very fun.

Haven't heard of any of these bands... should I have?

[kms2611]

Great weak. lots of variety. Nothing for me personally this week. Maybe I will pick up The Dock of the bay and fascination. Great work HMX

Redding is killer-awesome-great and the rest of the stuff is pretty good.

Except for me at least, Stray Cat Strut is one of those songs that just rubs me the wrong way.

(I was starting to get worried about Apples. Glad to see he's OK)

Well, considering I never really listen to these kinds of bands and the fact that Rust In Peace drained my wallet, I'm skipping next week.

Maybe I'll pick them up in the future, assuming they look fun to play and don't sound like garbage.

I am all over the Otis Redding pack. Great job by HMX. I'm also definitely getting Setzer and possibly the Chemical Brothers.

As excited as I am by Stray Cat Strut, I thought the Setzer version of Rock This Town would be perfect for RB -- guitar solo, drum solo, awesome vocals. Having said that, I love me some Setzer, and anything is great.

Otis Redding is an incredible surprise! Would have loved for Mr. Pitiful to be included, but still great. Fantastic week Harmonix!

Wooow. Probably go with the Chemical Brothers, the Alphabeat song and Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. Excellent week.
