I'm so there. Rise Against is legendary.
Bryan @ Mar 6th 2009 11:19AM
finally some decent music.
Cole @ Mar 6th 2009 11:27AM
Damn... I was really hoping for more Rise Against on Rock Band... May have to talk some friends into getting this.

I don't like much of today's music, but Rise Against is fantastic.
Enjoy it, Guitar Hero owners. I'll hope for some Rock Band love later on.

They're pretty good, their songs don't vary much though.

Rise Against is the latest band that makes me wish I had an iPod in my car.

"Death Blossoms?" Unreleased because Mudvayne threatened to kick thier asses after stealing the name from thier song "Death Blooms?" Jesus, how about some effin' originality people?! And no, I don't care if the song's content is completely different; choose a differnt title.

You're right, this never happens...http://www.thepeaches.com/music/dupes/
Holy crap.
Zoot Suit Jedi @ Mar 6th 2009 2:02PM
When did I say that it never happens?
Temidien @ Mar 6th 2009 2:33PM
Are you implying that Mudvayne is entirely original? I don't know how long you've followed the arts, but there's a lot of sharing of ideas in the community... It's not necessarily plagiarizing.
Zoot Suit Jedi @ Mar 6th 2009 12:19PM
That's punk for ya'.
And before the downvoting massacre begins, I'd like to point out that I am a huge fan of DK and the Ramones.
Zoot Suit Jedi @ Mar 6th 2009 12:36PM
Yeah, reply system! That was for Lieutenant.
Temidien @ Mar 6th 2009 2:31PM
Go home, troll.
MarkHawk @ Mar 6th 2009 12:38PM
Big fan, wish it was for RB though. May pick this up though I rarely throw GH into the disc tray.
Scooter @ Mar 6th 2009 12:41PM
Note to self: do not let friends hear about this. Continue to make them believe only RB has Rise Against.
wonderweazel @ Mar 6th 2009 9:37PM
Sorry to tell you GT:WT had re-education through labor on it.
Scooter @ Mar 7th 2009 3:37AM
Yes but those lies are already made. What they don't know won't hurt me.
jsa3mm @ Mar 6th 2009 1:38PM
Punk where non-conformity is conformity. Major suckage!
spiky32kobe @ Mar 6th 2009 1:42PM
noooooooooooooooooooo =:( i wanted this to be on Rock Band =:(i have GHWT but i dont really like it =:(
Judgegeo @ Mar 6th 2009 2:16PM
Ha, just saw them live last night.. I no longer like them as much. Crap live performers.
alex @ Mar 6th 2009 3:22PM
dude, i would love to know what you call a good live band because these are one of the best live in ages. or you just said that to get a reaction, which is really pathetic
Judgegeo @ Mar 6th 2009 5:02PM
Well, I prefer Zebrahead, or Strung Out. Flobots were pretty good too.
They were too.. static for me. No movement, no interaction with the audience.
djbuhhda @ Mar 6th 2009 3:08PM
aww i would love for these to be on rock band, the better game of the two. but i cant wait to see them on July 29th im SOOO excited.
rkrocks123 @ Mar 6th 2009 3:17PM
Well, that's it. I HAVE to go buy GH:WT now. With The Shins, The Raconteurs, The Smashing Pumpkins, and now THIS for DLC, I can't hold off any longer.
False @ Mar 6th 2009 3:35PM
GH:WT has quietly put together some quality DLC in the six months since it's been out. I think of what RB has out at this point (nearly two years of DLC and counting) and wonder what the GH catalog will look like at that point. I love it! More is always better!
My wallet, however, does not love it. My wallet thinks this sucks.
RyFar206 @ Mar 6th 2009 6:46PM
DAMMIT, now I HAVE to get GHWT.
snlacks @ Mar 7th 2009 10:46AM
