Yes! Saw The Black Keys live and they were fantastic, will by buying the entire Black Keys pack, don't care at all for Neon Trees though.

Thank you Harmonix!

Congratulations to The Black Keys and Neon Trees for making it to Rock Band.

[Sgt Pipper]

Can't say I've heard of either of these bands. I will check the charts out on Youtube when they come out.

[RockBandRocker]

Nice to see two bands making their Rock Band debuts.

However, these songs aren't for me (at least, right now).


More money into the RB3 fund!!

[hiimSMAP]

I've heard of X, Spoon, Mission of Burma, The Stooges, and several other artists people have said "Who?" to, but really who is Neon Trees?

[kraven]

Really need to give Indie rock a rest.

[howieduen]

Neon Trees aren't indie rock. They sound a little like the Killers, except less dramatic and over-the-top.

I'm glad we're getting "1983"... that was my standout favorite on Habits.

And the Black Keys, are like, all we have left to be proud of in Akron.

[A New Pyro Fool]

Swing and a miss.
