6/8/10 - DLC Discussion - Deftones, Boys Like Girls, Crown of Thorns

[Apples]

Hey gang,

Next week we'll see the Deftones hit the Music Store with a gnarly 3 pack! This marks the first appearance of the Deftones in the RB library, and they're accompanied by a single from another new-to-RB group, Crown of Thorns. Boys Like Girls (who you may remember from Lego Rock Band) round out the week with a single of their own.

Remember, these songs come out the same day that Green Day: Rock Band launches, so if you pick that up you'll have another 40+ songs to play! Enjoy!

Deftones – “Cherry Waves”
Deftones – “Hole in the Earth”
Deftones – “Minerva”

Crown of Thorns – “Rock Ready”

(All tracks are original master recordings)

Right band. Wrong songs. I guess I'll get Minerva.

[nascarfan19]

First!!! EDIT: Argghhh elfreako

Nothing as usual May edit once I see what the songs sound like

[ThatAuthoringGroup]

Deftones!

Yay!

[Rockox]

Darn. I was hoping for some 80s Hair or something I considered fun. Oh well.

[EcclesRose]

Thats another song from GH3 down

[MrJarpo]

Very happy to see The Deftones finally make it into RB, but not all that psyched about the track selection. Oh well, I'll pick them up and hope for more down the road. Perhaps something from their first three albums.

[Spoonman00]

Deftones are pretty awesome. Will have to listen to the other two. I just hope it's not another situation where awesome songs translate poorly to Rock Band, 'cause the Deftones songs are pretty slow.

[Plutarch]

I think Deftones gets requested pretty often, so that's good that we got some. Never heard of Crown of Thorns.

Boys Like Girls...ewww, get that s**t away from me. That Lego track of theirs is SO LAME, but I'm stuck with it cause of the frickin' all or nothing export. *grumble grumble grumble*

Guess HMX doesn't need my money again. This is 3 or 4 weeks in a row of nothing.
