does anyone think that guitar hero should have modern songs

noia773 · 02-02-2007, 10:54 PM

this is one thing i have been wondering about why gutiar hero has not featured any modern day songs such as underoath fall out boy sliverstien from first to last atreyu aiden the used saosin the audition blink 182 and shit load of others dont get me wrong the old school songs do have its touch and orginality or just have a mixture of both for more Varity and open up to a little wider audience what do you think about?

They do have new stuff, a lot of it is in the purchaseable shop songs on Guitar Hero II. Shadows Fall has a song, that's new stuff, The Amazing Crowns have a song that came out in 2000, I wouldn't consider that old.

That's just off the top of my head, but I'm sure a lot of the shop songs are newer things.

fuck no. or at least not the bands you listed. i hope if they do put stuff like that in, and it seems uneveitable, that it's in another version (guitar villain). but then they had some fairly modern stuff in both games.

Lets not also forget Avenged Sevenfold's "Beast and the Harlot" and Dethklok.

I nominate Blink 182 for Gatiar Haro

seriously, do we really need to start another "If only <insert favourite band>'s <insert favourite song> were in Guitar Hero" thread... we already have one here

Who the fucks names a song "The Beast and the Harlet". That alone made me hate the song. Hearing it made it worse.

That Shadows Fall song was amazing. I think it was by them... the light that blinds... I think it was... I dunno. and TROGDOR.

/r/ Three Days Grace and Metallica (One, Fade to Black, or the Unforgiven)

That would be cool. Or Ohio is for Lovers. Just for laughs.

Now now, there's no reason to get a hate-on for music, that's just...narrow minded :P

Besides, Beast and the Harlot is awesome fun to play on expert. I agree, though, TROGDOR = win. Specifically because it references a virtual world. And Strong Bad is awesome.

Yeah guys, keep in mind, although you might like the song, it might not fit what Harmonix wants Guitar Hero to come out looking like. For example, Ohio is for Lovers is definitely not a song that everyone likes (CUT MY WRISTS AND BLACK MY EYES).

And to everyone suggesting super-duper holy shit fast double bass wickety wickety wickety waaaaaaaaaaaaaa metal songs, not everyone appreciates that music.

Guitar Hero will mostly be mainstream music until there is an edit mode implemented. However, due to Konami's DDR Edit Mode patent, it is unlikely to ever publicly be released.

It seems as if the theme which the creators of guitar hero have established is to place music in the series which is classified as metal/rock. Tracks containing complexity, massive guitar riffs, and killer leads.

Blink 182 is not hard, nor are their guitar riffs epic or complex in anyway. In fact, its simplicity is rubbish compared to that of...say a Metallica song (pick any old school one you'd like). If ur not down with Metallica, thats fine. Point is there are many other bands which have much more creative and complex riffs than bands such as Blink 182, or a handful of other mainstream bands nowdays whose lead singers sing with pre-pubescent voices.

I like the motif behind the songs decided to be in guitar hero 2 as alotta of em bring back memories of rock and metal i listened to before. i look forward to future titles. WHAT THEY NEED IS SOME "IRON MAIDEN"-TROOPER.....PLEASE!!!!!!!

Yea, I'd stop playing if had it Emo and Pissasspostpunk *coughblink182cough*

yea, I thought Wolmother, freezepop, the Indie stuff, thought that was all pretty new.

I guess that everyone's just listen to to much Shit to find good Modern rock.

Now Dragonforce, THERE is some good, GH ready Modern Rock. I'd lover to see The Von Bondies on there, they're one of my biggest influences. However easy there guitar is, they just rock it.

By the way, please stop watching MTV.

Dragonforce would not make a fun GH song. They would make 7 minutes of 30 hammerons a second.

Rhapsody too, but Dragonforce definitely has way more sick guitar!

Please be quiet.

P.S. Dragonforce is metal, not rock.
