RB: Blitz Prediction Thread-- Remaining Unannounced Songs

[samjjones]

The Zombies - Time of the Season

I guess I could stop digging up holes in my backyard looking for the missing masters, then!

[TheDescent]

I think this may also be true for Dire Straits and The Beach Boys.

I remember you that the beach boys master of original recordings are all lost, only few live songs are avaiable. I guess those are really hard to find as well.

Being honest, if Muse isn't one of the remaining 10 bands, my anticipation for this game will sharply decrease. When the game is focusing on popular music (for the most part), it seems like it would be a waste to not have either one of those songs on the soundtrack. "Supermassive Black Hole" has the "Twilight" force behind it (*vomit*), while "Uprising" is the band's highest charting single and comes from a Grammy award winning album.

Jethro Tull 3-pack CONFIRMED to keep the heavy metal streak alive.

We won't get any Styx with Dennis DeYoung on vocals (as evidenced by the Styx re-record pack), so there's no need to worry about "Mr. Roboto".

Band Hero didn't already do this. It wasn't because they couldn't find the masters and re-recorded those without him to simply save on licensing time for the pack. Damn you Dennis, with 3 years since this pack you couldn't let us have anything nice, could you?

The best way to reintroduce the songs would be as optional DLC so that people who would rather stick to playing them in Rock Band 2 can do just that rather than take up nearly 10% of what's already the smallest Rock Band setlist to date.

Did anyone complain about having to buy Run to the Hills again?

People complain about the dumbest things, so I'm not surprised if somebody has. My all time favorite was No Woman No Cry, it was the double whammy from hell. Had people on one side complain they wouldn't buy it because it wasn't the live track from the album, which it was. Then the other side complain they wanted the studio version and not a live track, even though this is the more well known version.

It can always get worse.

[TheDescent]

Hey, I didn't bought No Woman No Cry just cause it didn't have harmonies and keys!

The live track it's the one on the legend album, and the one the radio still air sometimes, so what's to complain?

I imagine "Stellar" by Incubus will make it in there. Like someone mentioned, I'm hoping for Time of the Season.

Yes, I was presuming that the "Live in London" album (which is where the version of "Good Vibrations" we got came from) was available. You absolutely may be right in that only certain songs (maybe even only "Good Vibrations" itself) was usable from that collection.

I hadn't heard that, but it would make sense.

[samjjones]

Beach Boys *do* have a brand new album coming out, which is expected to be their final album. Maybe they can swing some DLC off of that for release?

Hate to say this, but you'd have to think HMX will be adding Nickelback and Avenged Sevenfold -- if this is for mainstream users.

(hey that nickelback song was fun. Wow. The store has 2 extra packs. cha-ching-ching)
