Hello from FEMA land!

I am glad the Rush album is out now, but I am pretty much OTG right now, so I will have to wait to check it out.

I did want to chime in and ask if there might be any chance that "Peace Sells", the song LEFT OFF The Megadeth album last week, but oddly enough INCLUDED IN ROCK BAND 2, would be posted as free song or cheaply since some people may only have Rock Band 1 - like me - for the time being.

Whomever thought that having to pay SEVENTY ONE DOLLARS USD (60 for Rock Band 2, 11 for the DLC "album" MINUS TITLE TRACK) for a single album needs to be tarred and feathered - then fired. STUPID MOVE Harmonix.

KRENZFAM, you listed a bunch of crappy hair metal bands, and somehow that's supposed to be better than what's offered this week? Just because it's more popular doesn't make it better or more fun to play in this game. Like AtSD said, if you like hair metal, that's fine, but that doesn't make it any more "worth hearing" than these songs. Everybody has their own likes and dislikes when it comes to music, but to go out of your way to insult music that's loved by a lot of other people just makes you look like an ass. And btw, I love Imperial Teen and they have SO many songs (including "Yoo Hoo") that would be a blast to play in Rock Band!

Hey Krenzam, if people like those bands then they are worth hearing to those individuals. Don't be a douche and try and make out that your opinions on music are more valid. Imo most of the hair metal i have heard is pap but you appear to like it but because i dont i say you should listen to something else. Phhh, each to their own i say. I would like some more progressive music and Candlemass :D that would be cool. Never heard much rush apart from the songs in these games but they all seem great and im a fan of pro rock so DL they go.

Right on KRENZFAM. Maybe some old Motly Crue, GnR, etc. I'd like the Metallica Black album but I doubt that'll happen on RB. Maybe GH.

Oh my holy God of fat men and cheesecakes I am astounded by some of your likes and dislikes hahahaha I want so badly to flame all of the music offered this week including, and most specifically, the Sleater-Kinney song.... OMG !! I applaud your music diversity everyone but can you please diversify into something worth hearing ? If ya want alternative type songs how about "Yoo Hoo" by Imperial Teen.. it gets in your head for weeks !!!!

Frankly, I would like some 80's rock bands... Poison, Warrant, Skid Row, etc etc... those would rock !!

Even if you all hate those bands, can ya honestly say that playing "Nothin But A Good Time" by Poison wouldn't rock ? I thought not.. UBER ROCK !!!!!

@ XeonPro

When new songs are released, they are always available on the Marketplace before the Music Store in RB. It seems the tracks go live on the Marketplace around 2am PST and the Music Store doesn't get updated until around 9am EST. Try looking in the Marketplace next time. Also, when buying tracks the are the same on the Marketplace as the Music Store. It doesn't matter where you download them from. It's actually easier on the Marketplace due to background downloading.

OMG! SHoot the runner! I was just listening to that the other day and wishing it was in Rock Band. Yay!!!

Sigh... The Rush album is ALL original tracks. The description says "Tom Sawyer (Original Version)”, "Limelight (Original Version)” only because those already exists as covers on the online music store. Also, it feels great to actually have a brain.That is all.

I love the music of Rush, but as a bassist I curse Geddy Lee as I soak my hand in ice after the big finish. He's a total genius, and I hate(love) him for it.

None of the songs were in the music store within the rock band game. i downloaded them from the Marketplace blade though.

Wow a Sleater-Kinney song on Rock Band - I never thought I'd see the day that would happen! It's good to see Harmonix keeping the song styles diverse by adding some fun alternative music songs too. Keep up the good work, Harmonix!!! And most importantly, don't listen to these whiners who complain about bands and songs that they don't know anything about!

That's funny... I thought this was about Rock Band tracks, not Tiger Woods DLC. You punks never cease to amaze me.

I can't wait to get home and play through the entire Moving Pictures album. I've listened to it twice already today... Probably one of the best albums of all time - all the songs are kick ass. I'm looking forward to playing The Camera Eye - "the focus is sharp in the city".
