10 Albums that should be in Rock Band

June 23, 2008 in Blog comments 15

IGN goes through the top 10 albums that they feel should be in Rock Band. While I do disagree with some - for personal musical tastes - I am impressed with their selection, and undoubtedly would have a blast playing the majority of them.

  • My Chemical Romance - Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge
  • Van Halen - Van Halen
  • Weezer - Pinkerton
  • Jane's Addiction - Ritual de lo Habitual
  • Disturbed - The Sickness
  • Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree
  • Soundgarden - Louder than Love
  • Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
  • AC/DC - Back in Black
  • The Hold Steady - Boys and Girls in America

    Pork and Beans would be an awesome song to play on Rock Band. (I don't know if it's in that Weezer album up there, but it would be awesome.)

    I think all music games need more Van Halen, and I've been waiting for an AC/DC song to make it into a Guitar Hero for years now.

    My Chemical Romance? Are you *bleep*ing me in the ass? I enjoy a little Give 'em Hell, Kid here and there, but that's ridiculous. They've done nothing for music. They've taught teenagers how to be whiny and dress like a fcuking freak, and to teach every scene/emo girl on the goddamn planet how to idolize and basically suck Gerard's cock every time they see him on MTV.

    Same with Fallout Boy. Fukc them. Sure they're catchy and filled with energetic youth, but they are little bitches just whining about the issues of today while putting their opinions in the form of some gay ass song about dancing. I'm sorry, but I don't want any of today's modern pop punk's teenage whiny bitches on a game like Rock Band. They're not even that talented, tbh.

    I agree with Van Halen, Weezer, Jane's Addiction, Smashing Pumpkins and AC/DC though.

    Smashing Pumpkins, Disturbed, AC/DC, and Van Halen are all that spark my interests on that list. The rest of them I like (most of them) but don't warrant an entire album. How bout Dirt or Core? Those, along with Nevermind, were pretty much the biggest Grunge albums back then. Or hell why not even do an entire Metallica, Black Sabbath, or Iron Maiden album? Those are sure to please almost anyone.

    But where the *bleep* is Who's Next and Nevermind? I want those before anything else.

    these games need some nofx. its fast, and the guitarwork is usually fairly complicated enough to make it fun.

      Ace man! Seeing Double at the Triple Rock would be a good choice, imo.

    I posted this in the 360 Rock Band forum nearly a whole day before they got it on here

    I think Janes Addiction would rock!

    Everything Jaw Knee said about Fallout Boy and My Chemical Romance I agree with more than words can explain. MCR had ONE good song on the UnderWorld Evolution soundtrack(and that was really only cause of the beat) and Fallout Boy's only success so far has been the cover of "Beat It" and go figure, it's only good cause it's a cover, therefore, not an original work from them. Disturbed and AC DC however, are the best. Oh, and Van Halen, cause who doesn't love a little Hot for Teacher? XD

    I agree with most of that. Van Halen certainly needs to be included at some point. ACDC hell yeah !

    I dont agree that Weezer should be there, and who on earth are The Hold Steady?

    The Van Halen - Van Halen and AC/DC - Back In Black albums definitely should be in Rock Band. They should of added Appetite for Destruction in there though.
