This is the first time Harmonix has let me down this much. Ah, well. At least we got the song at all. |
I want to agree with you, but the last three minutes of Prequel are probably the best part of a song that got cut out. (I want my accordion bridge. ) _________________

The last three minutes of Prequel To The Sequel showcase Between The Buried And Me's versatility. People play the song and they think the singer is just a growler. In reality, almost every single song BTBAM has recorded has a mix of growly and clean vocals. I love the (removed) climactic line, "it's starting to wilt away..." It's not just versatile vocals that BTBAM possesses. It's their ability to play anything musically, the way they jump from style to style multiple times throughout their songs (the best evidence of this is Ants Of The Sky). In Rock Band, PTTS is cut right before one such jump: the accordion bridge, and that's the best part of the song.
As much as I adore BTBAM, you'll never see me cry too much foul over this, because I can't even beat the song. It might as well be a 2-minute cut to me.
It's still disheartening to see another song suffer a similar fate. |

There's a very good chance that it's not Harmonix's fault. They said in response to PttS that they never cut songs (aside from lyric censoring) and that was the version they were given by the record label, so there's a good chance that it's the same for this. I wouldn't be surprised if there are Black Tide fans there who were more disappointed than we are when they were given the track without the intro. |

Grabbed both the metal tunes and though both bands are pretty over-rated, the charts were good. Warriors of Time kicked my ass with the solo's a few times. I hate triplets lol Had trouble getting the feel of Waking the Demons main riff, but got a 4 star sightread with it. |

I never realized how much I actually like Toby Keiths music. Wow, I want the whole thing. I need MSP. _________________

I am excited to play The New Slang it is an awesome song from my favorite movie (Garden State).
Won't like toby keith but at least I'll get a lot of easy FCs from it, and I have a friend that will want to play them, even though that means I will have to play them again lol _________________

Waking the Demon is censored:
Original: just fuck with my mind
rockband: just [...] with my mind
you can hear a stop while he is screaming that |

Being the metal fan I am, I downloaded WoT and WtD. I was offput by WtD's main rhythm with all the HOPOs giving me combo issues. Managed to 5 star it without too much difficulty.
WoT on the other hand...solo 3. Took me 3 tries to beat it. Yeah, I got 5 stars, but only on 86% notes hit. I haven't failed any song on my first try since CM. I guess that means I really like this song. However, the fact that solo 3 is about 75% of the way through the damn song, restarting is a bitch. Kind of like the Darkness Solo A in One. No way do I want to play that song again just to fail 4 or 5 minutes into it. GGaHT is much the same. But they're all fun, so yay, more 5 star scores! _________________
