Huh, and they actually follow the seconds it seems. :D Consider the following: -The sung T-10 countdown ticks each half measure. -The chronometer starts at 18 measures before the entrance, BUT RB charts usually insert a 2 measures silence at the beginning, so the song DID began 16 measures before entrance. -16 measures ÷ 32 s = 0.5 measures each second, the aforementioned rate of the sung countdown. Each half measure, or 2 beats, is a second!!!
I assume you might know this by now, but just wanted to put it here that Death to the Cool eventually got a second song via the Rock Band Network, which ironically was one of the main menu songs you couldn't play in Rock Band 3
Not into Rock Band or Rock myself but I will always be down to watch someone geek out over something they have passion for, especially when it's well edited and informative.
The European bonus songs were DLC for everywhere else, meaning they could be playable in RB2, RB3 (except Hier Kommt Alex and Rock and Roll Star), or RB4, but since 2013, most of them have been delisted.
The last one to be delisted (so far) was Countdown to Insanity by H-Blockx in 2018 Beetlebum, Hysteria, New Wave, and Perfekte Welle are still up (and are playable in RB4)
Hands down the best song selection of all the rock band games (excluding band exclusive games) Absolute banger after banger for the majority of the setlist.
RB1 and 2 had incredible setlists. RB1 had the brand name recognition tracks, while RB2 was great for discovering new music. I was super disappointed by RB3's list. There were a few bangers on there, but the disparity between good tracks and bad tracks was ocean-sized.
I'm so glad I got the EU version as a kid (naturally as I'm in the UK). It was my first introduction to Hysteria by Muse and I do think I remember Beetlebum from Rockband too which fits as I got into Blur last year. Shame I don't recall playing either of the Oasis songs on Rockband as a kid because I got really into Oasis last year too.
I hope someone creates a fan patch that replaces Rooftops with ANY family friendly song from Rock Band 1 or 2! They should’ve at least (I know Watkins’ misdeeds weren’t common knowledge at the time, but still) considered making a few country-specific versions of this game with a few changes to the setlist! For the French release, for example, Rooftops could’ve been replaced by Ça Plane Pour Moi, and for the German release, Rock Me Amadeus could’ve been the replacement song!
I'm glad I stumbled on this channel. Do you like the Tony Hawk games? You could make a video about the soundtrack from them. Cheers m8. You got a new subscriber
I legit bought all of the Iron Maiden songs from the store on RB3 lol. Also I wish they still sold export codes for RB3 because I want to play foreplay/long time on 3 lol.
i know this video is like 10 months old, but much like vagiant and tijuana sweetheart, the acro-brats pretty much renamed themselves to duck and cover, who was on RB4
i loved this game except for 3 songs green grass and high tides (fuck that expert chart) train kept a rollin flirtin with disaster took me 7 years to finally beat all them on expert
I'm surprised that dead on arrival gotten on the list? I was expecting Saturday or sugar we're going down,unless Under The Cork Tree wasnt released then
@@Ajakes probably since they just got popular at the time,they went with dead on arrival but it still baffles me why they didnt go with grand theft autumn (the famous single on this album) or even Saturday
i would think that they picked dead on arrival for gameplay reasons. that song has more challenging and interesting instrument parts than most of their songs, and it was still a single even if not as big of a single as gta or saturday or the hits from later albums
Could be fun if you can find a cheap bundle for the newer systems. I had already exported all my other songs from previous games so it just felt like an updated game with extra songs.
"If you want to play those songs, you have to import the EU version..." ...Or just get Guitar Hero 3, which has Hier Kommt Alex and GHWT which has Monsoon. ...Good luck on the other song, though.
I think Activision secluded the rights to Rolling Stones and Metalica to themselves. Also, I hate to disagree, but... next to RB3, RB1 has just about the worst fucking setlist in rhythm gaming. The makers put no thought into this setlist, they just grabbed all the blandest, most boring songs from each band (Gimme Shelter and Don't Fear The Reaper come to mind) mixed with songs that have been SO overplayed to the point no one wants anything to do with them (Enter Sandman, Should I Stay or Should I Go), plus god awful covers to songs that are already overrated enough (Tom Sawyer and Ballroom Blitz, for example). This setlist had, what, Electric Version, and that was about the only good song unless you get the version with Hysteria on it, but I had to BUY that song. The rest of the setlist ranged from "Meh" to "Oh god no!"Rock Band 2 was better, but it still had some of the same problems. Rock Band 3, once again, had no thought put into them. Those setlists really make me appreciate the Guitar Hero Setlists, since comparing GHWofR's setlist to RB3's setlist is like comparing an amusement park to being stabbed in the heart several times.
awesome video, I hope to see more like this on your channel. Subbed! definitely wanna see a video on Rock Band 2 or Lego Rock Band next
Thanks! Rock Band 2 will probably be next, since it's one of my favorite setlists.
O_O
The countdowns are measures -- just like they would be if you were playing an instrument in a real band. They should never ever be seconds.
Yeah some people have been pointing this out to me
Huh, and they actually follow the seconds it seems. :D
Consider the following:
-The sung T-10 countdown ticks each half measure.
-The chronometer starts at 18 measures before the entrance, BUT RB charts usually insert a 2 measures silence at the beginning, so the song DID began 16 measures before entrance.
-16 measures ÷ 32 s = 0.5 measures each second, the aforementioned rate of the sung countdown.
Each half measure, or 2 beats, is a second!!!
I always come back to these videos very frequently because of how much I love them and hopes that someday you'll come back with this series ❤❤
I assume you might know this by now, but just wanted to put it here that Death to the Cool eventually got a second song via the Rock Band Network, which ironically was one of the main menu songs you couldn't play in Rock Band 3
I actually did NOT know that lol, that's pretty nuts
Dude, this a very well edited video. I would really like to see you cover all Rock Band games in this format. Great video! :D
Thanks! Will do.
Not into Rock Band or Rock myself but I will always be down to watch someone geek out over something they have passion for, especially when it's well edited and informative.
You should play it
6:07 Vagiant's Seven is playable in RB4.
3:54 if you ever wanted to know why some songs are “as made famous by [band]”.
Those covers I swear to god were the originals... I’ll have to go back and give it a listen again
The European bonus songs were DLC for everywhere else, meaning they could be playable in RB2, RB3 (except Hier Kommt Alex and Rock and Roll Star), or RB4, but since 2013, most of them have been delisted.
The last one to be delisted (so far) was Countdown to Insanity by H-Blockx in 2018
Beetlebum, Hysteria, New Wave, and Perfekte Welle are still up (and are playable in RB4)
7:33 Beetlebum was actually a cover and not a Blur master recording.
Instantly subbed due to the Sims 1 Neighborhood music. Great video, looking forward to more. :)
It's catchy as hell
great video. we need a rock band facts and more setlist videos! :)
AGREED
0:28 Exact same reaction when James Sunderland (Nitro Rad) found out Banjo and Kazooie would be in Super Smash Bros Ultimate
RB 1 had the best tracklist for my tastes in music. Also GH 3 still has the most songs I actually like for a gh game.
Such a solid channel already
Train kept a rollin is my shiiiiit
Hands down the best song selection of all the rock band games (excluding band exclusive games) Absolute banger after banger for the majority of the setlist.
I cant believe i can get into such a good channel so early. So excited to see whats next
Nice video, subscribed/liked ^^ I also loved the RB1 setlist, but I think I like RB2's more because of Chop Suey :D Good thing it's released as DLC :)
RB2 has one hell of a setlist. So good.
This is exactly how I feel with guitar hero three, at the end of my playlist literally has the entire gh3 soundtrack
RB1 and 2 had incredible setlists. RB1 had the brand name recognition tracks, while RB2 was great for discovering new music. I was super disappointed by RB3's list. There were a few bangers on there, but the disparity between good tracks and bad tracks was ocean-sized.
GREEN GRASS AND HIGH-TIDES FOREVER!
Just got rock band 1 the other day love that u can still play online on 360
This video is way ahead of its time the editing style
This was super interesting. I'd love for you to explore the differences in Guitar Hero pre and post Harmonix/Neversoft
Hmm, interesting idea. Thanks!
This was pretty great!
Are you going to do "Examining the RB2 setlist?
Now I am!
Death of the Cool did return! They had a song released through Rock Band Network 2.0.
Ah, I wasn't counting those. But I'll put your comment into the annotations so people know.
Dude we're the same age and I played rock band like it was call of duty
I'm so glad I got the EU version as a kid (naturally as I'm in the UK). It was my first introduction to Hysteria by Muse and I do think I remember Beetlebum from Rockband too which fits as I got into Blur last year. Shame I don't recall playing either of the Oasis songs on Rockband as a kid because I got really into Oasis last year too.
0:28 aint thst nathaniel b
the acro brats returned with hair trigger as dlc
Definitely the best setlist in my opinion, but RB2 was really good too
Great video man
Do RB2! I still miss the studio version for Let there be Rock :/
Same, the ACDC Live version is so long.
It's also way too fast to be enjoyable on drums >_>
I mean we have got a version of it that’s playable so like the qoute says
“A shit version of what you get
Is still better than nothing at all
I hope someone creates a fan patch that replaces Rooftops with ANY family friendly song from Rock Band 1 or 2! They should’ve at least (I know Watkins’ misdeeds weren’t common knowledge at the time, but still) considered making a few country-specific versions of this game with a few changes to the setlist! For the French release, for example, Rooftops could’ve been replaced by Ça Plane Pour Moi, and for the German release, Rock Me Amadeus could’ve been the replacement song!
I'm glad I stumbled on this channel. Do you like the Tony Hawk games? You could make a video about the soundtrack from them. Cheers m8. You got a new subscriber
Hey, I was thinking the exact same thing, especially THUGs tracks. You reading my mind?
Ajakes YES! Those have the best soundtracks!!! Please make it happen my brotha
I legit bought all of the Iron Maiden songs from the store on RB3 lol. Also I wish they still sold export codes for RB3 because I want to play foreplay/long time on 3 lol.
Yeah kinda insane you can't get those old exports
Just a minor correction. Beetlebum by Blur was a cover, not the original.
Yeah I put that in the annotations 👍
BOI You deserve way more subscribers
Good thing he apparently just started uploading this month, so if he gets famous, congrats, we're on the under 1000 subscribers club 🙌🏻
notfound im under 1.5 woohooo
On my copies of Rock Band 2 and 3, I'm able to play Seven. But in this video, you said it can't be exported.
Yeah I was wrong, I added an annotation with the correct info during that part.
The Acro-Brats appeared in the RBN as well.
Solid video man. keep it up.
Oasis is such a great rock n roll band I wish they got HUGE in the states man!
i know this video is like 10 months old, but much like vagiant and tijuana sweetheart, the acro-brats pretty much renamed themselves to duck and cover, who was on RB4
the metallica track pack in rb3 is still available on wii
I played this game on my ps2, I miss it a lot
Rock band 3 video when??
I have a clever comment on it and I want to use it.
How you get so many subscribers so fast!? Also how are you this good at editing this quickly?!
doctour two skull I KNOW TEACH ME YOUR WAYS
Amazing! Just amazing.
Great vid awesome stuff man
I would love for a full Fall Out Boy game
Wait Mississippi Queen was a cover?? Got me there Harmonix
i loved this game except for 3 songs
green grass and high tides (fuck that expert chart)
train kept a rollin
flirtin with disaster
took me 7 years to finally beat all them on expert
If you count the European version, Muse really only had one RB appearance.
you're telling me! I've been wishing for more Muse songs for ages
IN BLOOM IS IN IT YES
THE ONLY SONGS I PLAYED ON ROCK BAND 1 WERE SAY IT AINT SO AND DANI CALIFORNIA
Don't The Acrobrats do the RB4 DLC song "Hair Trigger"? It was probably added long after this video, to be fair.
I still have Battery on my RB2 setlist.
Welcome back to they removed Welcome to insanity around June 18th (2018)
The countdowns are by measures. That's better in my opinion instead of seconds
*Edit* Nevermind, I'm an idiot. I should watch the whole video before I comment. Disregard.
no worries
Pixies, weezer and Rhcp are my favorite
I LOOOVE YOUUU JESUS CHRIIIIIIISSSSTTTTTTTTTTT
Also why didn’t harmonix release Elvis DLC
I'm pretty sure I have the run to the hills cover & enter sandman in rb2
The rock band 4 count down isn’t seconds it’s bars
yeah I wrote that down in the annotations
Is that snap city music at the beginning. (I don’t know were it’s form that how I know it).
The countdown aren't supposed to match seconds... they match bars
I'm surprised that dead on arrival gotten on the list? I was expecting Saturday or sugar we're going down,unless Under The Cork Tree wasnt released then
Yeah, kinda weird they went early for fallout boy with so many more popular songs out by then
@@Ajakes probably since they just got popular at the time,they went with dead on arrival but it still baffles me why they didnt go with grand theft autumn (the famous single on this album) or even Saturday
Agree but the only songs people know are the older stuff like sugar and dance dance would love to see take over the breaks over
@@nevermindgaming6848 broo same!!! Legit all of infinity on high is underrated
i would think that they picked dead on arrival for gameplay reasons. that song has more challenging and interesting instrument parts than most of their songs, and it was still a single even if not as big of a single as gta or saturday or the hits from later albums
The count down aren't for seconds they are couting the measures! Usually in 4/4
Yeah, I made an annotation calling me out as a BIG DUMMY
Blackened and justice for all and ride the lighting aren’t even in GH Metallica which pisses me off because there 3 of my favourites
Nathaniel Scuttlebug Bandy
rockband 1 was where i started but i do like rockband 2 the best
Wtf do u mean with the battery thing, it was in rock band 2 as an on-disc song...
So should I buy the newest rock band? The only one I have is the Lego one
Could be fun if you can find a cheap bundle for the newer systems. I had already exported all my other songs from previous games so it just felt like an updated game with extra songs.
uh Seven did export... it was only the 3 metal songs that did not export
Yeah I corrected myself in the annotations
o shit waddup
The countdown should follow the tempo, not real life seconds.
Good setlist. I know all of them lol
0:28
All the songs i listen to in my playlist i wish i can play on rockband 4, alll here in one game. sucks
No dislikes
"If you want to play those songs, you have to import the EU version..."
...Or just get Guitar Hero 3, which has Hier Kommt Alex and GHWT which has Monsoon. ...Good luck on the other song, though.
Timmeh!
Look at Rocksmith
Lol nathaniel bandy
Nirvana is the best so it's all fine
Congrats Metallica songs are back
I think Activision secluded the rights to Rolling Stones and Metalica to themselves.
Also, I hate to disagree, but... next to RB3, RB1 has just about the worst fucking setlist in rhythm gaming. The makers put no thought into this setlist, they just grabbed all the blandest, most boring songs from each band (Gimme Shelter and Don't Fear The Reaper come to mind) mixed with songs that have been SO overplayed to the point no one wants anything to do with them (Enter Sandman, Should I Stay or Should I Go), plus god awful covers to songs that are already overrated enough (Tom Sawyer and Ballroom Blitz, for example).

Couldn't disagree more. All RB setlists are head and shoulders above GH setlists. Closest they ever got was GH3.
Rock band has a good selection don't know what your crying about it had so many awesome picks and its the reason why I like some of those bands
