Woohoo, guess I'm the only Slipknot fan around here!

I could - and regularly do - say the same about Bon Jovi. I cringed when I saw the announcement, shortly after RB3's launch.

On the other side of that, Bon Jovi is the only pack I've bought since RB3 launched.

I've won some, and I'm poor as hell, but other than that.

I wonder how many who prefer the old people music really are old people. I'm from 1991 and mostly prefer old people music too.

'93, old people music, but modern alternative is far and away my favorite genre.

A handful of singles from different bands

There's like what, ten artists this week?

The only reason I have Bon Jovi is winning it.

Saying you don't like RBN is like hating music in general.

Wrong.

Well, I will now share my opinion on this week.

There's nothing I recognized in the lineup, and the first song in the preview was noisy. But Snuff sounds pretty cool I guess, so I may get that, along with anything devil-tiered on guitar.

But this is a lot of hate towards optional content. I have no problem with Slipknot getting more tracks, since they are popular among the kiddies, so they'll be pleased to see this hit Tuesday.

A SINGLES week, not a pack and a single. A handful of singles from different bands - understand my post next time before you b*tch about how awesome you are about looking stupid.

I agree, the last singles week we had was only 5 songs, and two by the same artist. Before that, it was that POD week.

A week i really liked and wish we could have similarily again was the Anthrax week. Not only did we get a 5 pack from a big 80's metal artist, we also got classic rock singles from the Doobie Bros. and modern singles from MCR, Atreyu, Buckcherry, and 30 Seconds to Mars. If you couldn't find a single song that week that interested you, than I feel sorry for you.

I wish we could have a week like that again.

I'm also picking up the entire pack. I'm not the the biggest Slipknot fan, but their music is always fun to play on RB.

Slipknot suc-ks and everybody with good taste in music knows it.

Very very bad the next week.

I normally don't take things very seriously on this forum, but this particular reply, I take an exceptionally large amount of offense to. I am so glad that I know you personally, and you know me well enough to tell me that because I like Slipknot, and do not think that they suck, that I have absolutely horrible taste in music. So glad. When in fact, my iTunes library consists of everything from The Beatles to Def Leppard and Iron Maiden to Avril Lavigne. But I have such horrible taste in music, and you know this to be a fact, because as I said, you personally know me so well.

Don't like slipknot so won't be buying any of this, but glad to see that there's more than one song with pro upgrade. Keep the upgrades coming HMX!!!

I wish HMX didn't feel obligated to keep releasing pro upgrades with new songs (if they're bland and these sure sound like fairly dull tabs) and kept treating our rich back catalog with more respect, so many gems ready for pro guitar action.
Last week only shows that people are willing to buy legacy tracks if they get pro upgrades (it's a win-win).
And Henry we're at the end of September, hopefully these 4 song weeks will increase in number as you said during the summer.
Albums wouldn't hurt either (Clash's epic double album was released 8 months ago).
ps.I'll be buying this pack if only to support you guys but these are my thoughts.
