Well then, sorry I defended Spike. Those bands are by far worse than Green Day.

I'm pretty sure Spike is a truth speaker...Green Day is the cancer of music...not any genre....music....like...all music....like most garage family bands are more deserving of this kind of attention and dlc than them....seriously...

More crappy music coming to rock band. There has been a lot of stuff that was good but really started going down hill with RB Beatles..

I WANT one of the GH or RB games to have DLC of Trans-siberian Orchestra for the Holidays. DO IT NOW!!!

My god what a pompous load of euro symphonic pap.

The reason you won't see any of this type of stuff or any so called proper metal (ie; heavier, for the record heavier DOESN'T mean proper it means HEAVIER) is because only 100 or so people will actually buy it so whats the point in licencing it? Its not Rock Bands fault you have ecclectic tastes.

Liking the Transiberian Orchestra is hardly eclectic. Part of the appeal of RB is the broad range of music they offer. If they stop licensing stuff that isn't mainstream, they'll lose that appeal.

Also, if you're going to be such a condescending jerk, it helps to get your spelling right.

Why can't they put out some good Green Day songs, I didn't like this album. I've decided to go 2 ways, I'm going to keep buying Rock Band but I'm also gonna pick up GH4 and 5 for xmas.

Yea, but for $12 on Amazon you can't go wrong. Also, RB has yet to offer any Sublime. GH4 is practically worth the price just for that.

It looks like a better setlist overall than 5 to me. Plus I can get 86 songs for $30, that's a no-brainer even if I can only export 30 of em.

Hmmm maybe if I was 7 years younger and still listened to shitty music, I would get this.

More Beatles DLC pls.

Well that all depends on the sales. Harmonix said if the sales of the first 3 albums are good, they will continue with the Beatles DLC. If the sales arnt...well they wont continue

Tried looking to see if this was already said and couldn't find it. The video you have posted is for "Viva La Gloria? (Little Girl)", which is an entirely different song than "Viva La Gloria!"

That's a link to "Viva La Gloria!"

Why do bands do this? I understand the need, the carnal desire to promote your new crap, but I play Rock Band to play songs that are already great, not experience new stuff. Give me stuff from their older work that made them famous in the first place or even American Idiot. Minority, When I Come Around, Basket Case and Holiday would all make great RB tracks.

And to anyone getting angry about music they don't like in Rock Band's DLC, here's a great thing: YOU NEVER HAVE TO PAY FOR/PLAY ANY OF IT. I don't like the band Disturbed, so guess what? I've only got the song that's included with RB2 and none of the 5 others they've released. Simple as that. If you hate it, don't buy it. It's not like they are forcing this upon you in a disc (*cough* Guitar Hero) or, say, seven discs (*cough, cough* Sorry, had Activision stuck in my throat) over the course of a year, which have some songs you like and A METRIC TON of crap.

Also, why can't I change that damn picture?? Am I missing a step? I like Mario, but come on. I've tried uploading things at least 10 times and none of them stick.

This made my week. I really love this album to death. I really don't mind paying $5 every 5 months (the last one was in July) to make me pick rock band up again to play this album.

Instead of posting again above, I'll just write it here.
#1. If I don't like a band, I don't go around advertising my dislike, I just show when I like something. It's pretty much trolling.
#2. What is wrong with being catchy? If a song sticks in your head, and is fun to sing to, why should you dislike it?
#3. If you saw these guys live, you would change your mind.

That is all. Downvote me, upvote me, ignore me, whatever. Thats my opinion on this track pack, and on this band. I'll be buying this the day it come out.

I don't know who's voice annoys me more, this guy's or the lead singer guy from blink 182. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard.

I liked them before they tried to add meaning to their music. And I don't mind meaning in music, but Greenday is terrible at that.

Ok good job. Just for your information, sharing a valid opinion, positive or negative, is not trolling.

Obviously, Green Day sucks.
The Beatles sucked. U2 sucks. Linkin Park sucks. Paramore sucks. Every band sucks.

I don't get why you guys are posting the obvious.

Yay, more Green Day. Now if only they would release some of their older music. What I wouldn't give for a full album download of Dookie.

"What is wrong with being catchy? If a song sticks in your head, and is fun to sing to, why should you dislike it?"


Why is it when someone is faced with an opposing opinion they always seem to think they know why the other person believes what they believe? I, personally, don't like them because they aren't very talented musicians and their lyrics are repetitive.

anthonyjh:

Funny, you are telling someone to respect an opinion in the same breath you claim to be the end-all, be-all of what "talent" is...

Just because you're saying "I personally blah blah blah" doesn't make your opinion valid. (There's a difference between right/wrong and valid.)

The guys in Green Day can play instruments. They are talented. (Not everyone can play an instrument.)
