31 Days of TAG Dec 28th entry.

This next band I found due to accidentally stumbling onto it via the T2 quotes in the original version.

Needless to say I was instantly hooked on the fantastic music I was hearing, and knew I had to get it into Rock Band so others could experience it.

The rest is history as they say.

This is 77345-018 (that's Bioshell upside down in leet for those that don't know), from The Minotaur Project!

31 days of TAG Dec 29th entry.

Anyone that was a fan of Guitar Hero 3 will instantly recognize this next song.

One of the few songs in the bonus set-list that actually caught my attention by being several magnitudes of awesome.

Our partnership with Clay and Estranger led to Lance at Sony/Nightmare Red, and lo and behold they had Prototype on their roster.

Like a shark in blood filled waters I pounced at the chance to get one of the best songs in GH3 (bonus set or not), and now here we are with yet another awesome metal track in our Rock Band library.

This is Prototype with The Way it Ends!

31 days of TAG Dec 30th entry.

I've been a huge fan of this next band since their Mega Kung Fu days.

So when our Twitter expert told me that Dave was interested in getting some tunes in the game, I dropped everything and moved heaven and earth to land them.

Land them I did, and five songs from them later, this one is by far my favorite.

This is Show Me What You've Got by Powerman 5000!

31 days of TAG Dec 31st entry.

Final entry!

I think it's only fitting that I end this best of TAG list with was not only the first song we worked on that got stuck in my head, but was also the first song we ever released.

This is just an infectious as hell song, that will ear-worm it's way into your brain when you least expect it.

It was only kismet that the first song an authoring group that was formed from fans on the Rock Band forums, was written and performed by a fan from those same forums.

Here's the pop-punk anthem Stereo Stereo by I am King Tony!

Well I had a hell of a lot of fun (if not a hard as hell time deciding) working on this top 31 list, and I hope you guys and gals found some new favorites you didn't know were out there!

I knew a god existed! It's TAG!

I finally just got caught up with all my Metalocalypse and was curious which Dethklok songs might be heading our way... or even if this is still in the works. I saw some posts regarding some rough times, hope all is well.

*EDIT* Hoping for Bloodrocuted

[ThatAuthoringGroup]

Yep we're still moving forward (albeit at a MUCH slower pace than before), with our plans.

I don't want to announce anything yet as when I had announced our 2013 plans they were still a ways off when we were at full capacity). Now that we're on a skeleton crew they're really far out, and I don't want to get anyone's hopes up with what we'll be working on in the later half of 2013 in case anything happens.

Rock Band stops, or TAG stops, or sneak attack from the Mayans or WHATEVER

So far nothing has changed on our end at this moment in time, it's just going to take a lot longer than initially thought due to lack of personnel out of nowhere on our end.

And Dangi everyone knows Lemmy is God.

Yes that is an Airheads reference.

Yes I am old.

Wouldn't say old just vintage

you ever try to get "Degenerated" by The Lone Rangers? that song is awesomesauce... actually that whole soundtrack is lol anyway, "Hatridcopter" probably isn't possible but it would be awesome.

We had two songs release this week!

This one actually released last week but with the holiday schedule it didn't 'officially' hit until today.
