@EJ: Nevermind was NEVER promised. HMX has released statements regarding this a number of times.
It was mentioned as an example of the ala cart method "You could buy all of Nevermind, or just Smells Like Teen Spirit" or something like that.
The rumor hit the web and spun out of control.

Stay true to the funk, brother.
Honestly though, I know about 90% of the album on both guitar and bass anyway. I wonder how I'll take to the plastic?

I hate rhythm and music games, but I may even give in and pick this up. I mean complete Foo and Red Hot Chili Pepppers! On top of that Stevie Ray Vaughn!

If they put that song in the game at some point, I would sing that 15 times every single day.

I don't listen to these bands that you like therefore you suck. I only listen to indie rock and death metal by bands that even the college kid with the bad haircut hasn't heard of when I'm not listening to classic rock by people who were banging transvestites while most of you were sucking on your mother's teat. That pretty much makes me better than all of you. You are all pieces of crap for not liking the same stuff as me. Go somewhere and die. Ace of Bass rules!

It's Ace of BASE. I lost :(
BTW, nice Sifl & Olly avi!!!
As for this article: funny to see Foo & No Doubt get full albums, after their 3 packs in GHIII...I bought those, and I'll absolutely buy the upcoming two albums.
And Blood Sugar Sex Magik.

I'm actually banging my head to every one of these albums. Even the No Doubt best of thingy should get the gals into it a little more.
Though I enjoy Foo Fighter's TCATS, I would have preferred their first album. But beggars can't be choosers, I s'pose.

According to an interview Joystiq did with Dan Teasdale a while back, the DLC should work for RB as well as RB2.
Joystiq: Does the company foresee a point when DLC will be made exclusive to the latest version?
DT: Not for Rock Band 2. We made it very clear that we want this to be a platform.

Until Nevermind comes out I don't believe this list will ever come around.

Really dude if you want to play Nevermind so bad, just get a guitar and look up the chords. I guarantee you can "master" the whole album in a weekend. The shit isn't complex. I don't know why anyone would think this album would be fun to play in a rhythm game.

hmm...and yet every other album announced has come out, why? BECAUSE NEVERMIND WAS NEVER PROMISED!!!
Amen Cox, imo, only Lithium would be fun to play.

The Colour and the Shape!
Best Foo album by far! This just made my day and put RB back on top of GH once again, because the GH track list is shaping up nicely.
Blood Sugar Sex Magik is a nice album too, and I would never pass up some more Stevie, just so I can get some more hard guitar stuff. I can't wait for these...fantastic.

As long as they only change "What I want is I want to put it in you" to "What I want is I'd like to hug and kiss you" I'll be fine with it

I was gonna pass on RB2 but the full album of Blood Sugar Sex Magic changed my mind. I just hope they don't edit Sir Psycho Sexy at all, that would suck.

They shouldn't even need the option of clean lyrics. They can rate downloads separately from the game. LUMINES LIVE! is rated E, while some of the content available is rated E-10. I don't see why they don't just M rate explicit DLC.
