DLC Discussion Thread - 4/6/10 - Skillet, Switchfoot, Anberlin, and more!

[Witticus]

I'm familiar with the Switchfoot track and a friend of mine is huge on Amberlin other than that I really don't know what to make of the week. It's not really that diverse, but there's still 6 new bands, I'm sure there's some people happy.

will we be getting muslim rock bands for ramadan?

I wonder which version we're getting of "The Feel Good Drag"? The original 2005 version or the 2008 re-record? I'd guess probably the latter one.

Edit: I didn't noticed the title didn't have "the" in it. That definitely confirms we're getting the 2008 version. I much prefer the original, but oh well.

Huh, wait, who??? Never heard of them...

[Rawker31]

Very excited for Skillet, TFK, and Anberlin, although it would have been nice to have a better Skillet song. Might get Switchfoot as that was the only song I ever appreciated from them. I'll have to check out the other two.

Total crap. This should come out on RBN. Give us good stuff!

Seems like a well thought out post. Did you even listen to any of the songs?

[kitlerc]

At first I was like "Oh ****! That's disappointing!"

Then I did the reasonable thing and actually gave the songs a shot. Yay YouTube!
But I was still all like "That's disappointing!" Which means... Yay songs from RBN week!

Oh, and this only reminded me of how we don't have "Fire It Up" by Black Label Society. (From GH1 for those non-GH buffs out there) That song was moderately awesome.

Damn it! have You listened to the SONGS, please do before you say that these are utter crap, Meant to Live is a very poular song that alot of people know and these artists aren't some indie acts, they are pretty popular but not like some huge bands.

Not popular with me. Never heard of them before. They might be good...I might actually listen and buy them (but I doubt it). But that's not why I started playing RB. I don't need to learn new songs just to play a game, when there's so many more well-known songs (read: older songs) out there that haven't seen the light of day in RB.

When I say utter crap, I mean that it's another week of relying on the Network for maybe 1 new song. It's crap to wait another week for HMX to deliver the goods, only to find myself staring at the computer screen in complete confusion and/or disappointment. No offense to the actual bands, but I could really care less about current music for the most part. I'm not in their demographic.

Damn it! have You listened to the SONGS, please do before you say that these are utter crap,

But you see, that would be making an informed judgment, and such a thing went out of fashion years ago, especially on the internet. It's much easier to lash out blindy with unsupported dogma...because after all, Rock Band revolves around him and only him!

I admit I didn't see the Easter connection right away, I suppose that's appropriate.

I feel the exact same way
