    Songs for Rock Band:
    All of these songs would work great in the game, featuring all four parts (and being fantastic songs as well)

    The Arctic Monkeys are a 4-piece band from Sheffield England. They have released several chart-topping singles since 2005 such as "I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor", "Brainstorm", "When the Sun Goes Down", and "Fluorescent Adolescent". They have been extremely popular, right from the start. The band's debut album, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, holds the record for the largest first week sales of a debut album in the UK (in its first week, it sold more than the rest of the Top 20 albums combined).

    Why in Rock Band
    They are a four piece band. Discounting the rhythm guitar, this means thier music is perfect for Rock Band. They have complicated and challenging drum parts, interesting guitar, and fun basslines. Similar to The Strokes and The Killers, both of which are already in Rock Band, the Arctic Monkeys would be an exciting, challenging, and fun addition to the game.

    With Rock Band coming out in the UK, where the Arctic Monkeys are huge, they deserve to represented in Rock Band, whether with a single song, a 3-pack, or perhaps even a full album.

    Welcome to the forums!

    I'm glad to see your first post in support of such an amazing band.

    Arctic Monkeys DLC would sell like wildfire in the UK, and probably pretty well in the US.

    Well if they managed to make the fastest selling debut album in British history (even beating Oasis) they can likely do it with this DLC.

    Well I personally hate emo songs and strong American accents but you won't catch me being close minded enough to bother other people in their threads.

    Bump.

    I'll take the English accent over the American emo voices any day.
