I like Periphery, Paramore, Tesseract, Tina Turner, Daft Punk, Dew Scented, Parliament, Prodigy, Machine Head, Michael Jackson, ABBA, Amon Amarth...

And you know what? It's because I give everything a fair chance instead of assuming that because it has under 50,000 hits it's incoherent grindcore, or over a million hits it's mainstream crap. I do have favourite genres, but that doesn't mean the rest are awful. Believe it or not, some people genuinely don't care about music as much as you. They can stick on a radio, and hum along to a tune or chord progression that's not too challenging or that they've heard before, and not care if it's 80's Scorpions or Bruno Mars. That's why they don't know much about that particular flavour of sonic vibrations. Not because they're sheeple, boxed in by the music industry. But because they honestly don't care about what they're listening to. Disturbia? Why the hell not! Love In An Elevator? Bring it on! 2112? Aww yea!

And if you get the random dickhead telling you that (x) genre is better than your favourite, then they're the exception to the rule. They're just as likely to have a go at you for the make of your clothes, or your favourite 13th century battle.

This just in, I want songs that I've heard over songs I haven't.

How does this qualify as news? I mean, I've already said I'm open-minded about listening to new things, what's the problem?

How can you just assume that my music taste is "mainstream crony radio"? I bet you have no idea what sort of music I listen to. I mean, sure, it's not as RAWR BRÚTAL METALZ WARGH as yours, but it's certainly an eclectic mix. To say I only listen to Top 40 stuff is just totally wrong.

At the same time, I should take this opportunity to thank SH in general, as well as rhythm games too, for widening my musical taste. Without them, I would never have heard of awesome bands such as Rush, DT, etc. So ignoring kris for a moment, thanks guys. Seriously.


So let's see if I understand this: Scorehero/Rock Band/whathaveyou have privied you to a lot of music you never would have given the time of day to, but you'd still prefer to get a DLC collection of *insert whatever thoughts you have here* pop songs? Right.

^

kris, why is it that week in and week out, you're the one that's complaining about DLC if it's not something you like.

And now you're the one calling someone out for daring to have preferences?

Mr. Pot, please meet Mr. Kettle.

News flash: It's okay to be more excited by a song you KNOW you like, than a new song you've never heard of that you're not sure you'll like.

I've been out of bitch wars for quite some time. If I recall, the last time something like this happened was that Bruno Mars week a long time ago. And I see your point, but it's just something I fundamentally disagree with. Part of the fun in rhythm games, and in life in general, is finding new music to add to what you already have. That's why weeks like this are so frustrating for me, as it's just stagnance.

It's a conversation about opinions on DLC. All I was originally saying before this turned into a shitstorm is that I'm voting with my wallet, and I was hoping more people would vote on the same side.

I kind of liked this. I Write Sins Not Tragedies is the first song I heard from Panic! At The Disco, and Billionaire is famous and nice. The rest is pop crap.

I'm pretty sure your in the minority of what people want with DLC. Most people are looking at DLC to get songs they love or know so they can jam with stuff they enjoy. Finding something new can be nice sometimes, but I don't use Rock Band to find new bands. I've found very few new bands through playing Rock Band as I usually find new music through many other ways (Websites, Youtube, Blogs, Recommendations). Can't really expect people to just ignore music they are actually wanting in the hope that the next DLC will be something new AND something they actually like.

Checking Splync's videos...Is that...has "Whore" been censored in I Write Sins Not Tragedies?

GRAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

And so has "God" in "God damn door"

Ugh, well, that's ruined the song for me. Think I'll stick with the two songs from "Pretty. Odd.", thank you very much

That's actually the normal radio edit, sadly.

Oh fuck this goddamn shit. Oh well, I'll probably buy it anyway because they did chart the cello to keys.

megallica, I completely agree with you.

I thought that the radio had a "ssh" during the "whore" line, rather than that awkward gap, which is much better.

Though that may be the music video, I never heard it on the radio, only seeing it on music channels.

That's another strike against.

Also I thought we were supposed to get Sublime with Rome... what a ripoff!

I'd probably only get Paramore and Panic! At The Disco. This week is awful.

I think he means charting something that isn't keys to keys is a strike against the song. Which makes no sense because 1) This is a modern pop song. Odds are the cello is synthesized to begin with, and 2) the chart switches to "real" keys whenever they come in. They only chart cello when there isn't another keys part.
