Rock Band 2 has a killer track list seemingly compiled from every mix tape you were proud of in college. There's a smattering of indie rock like Dinosaur Jr.'s "Feel the Pain", Sonic Youth's "Teenage Riot" and The Replacements' "Alex Chilton" with hits you forgot were so awesome (Smashing Pumpkins' "Today"), the classics like Journey's "Anyway You Want It", Bob Dylan's "Tangled Up in Blue", and
Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way" and the songs that, despite all the other great music, your friends will inevitably end up playing over and over and over ad nauseum. Just see how quickly they select Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" and Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger". There are also a few bands that don't seem on par with the rest like System of a Down or Paramore, but somewhere out there, they are someone's guilty pleasure. Harmonix kept the lid on a couple tracks until recently, like AC/DC's "Let There Be Rock", Metallica's "Battery", from back from when Metallica was good, and Guns n' Roses' "Shackler’s Revenge" off the as-of-yet unreleased "Chinese Democracy". Sadly, if this highlights "Chinese Democracy", then one can only hope Axl Rose will be co-opted into some sort of b-list celebrity reality show that delays the albums release until approximately never.
If the track list doesn't grab your interested yet, Harmonix promises over 500 songs available for download by Holiday 2008 and for a nominal $5 fee you can import every track from Rock Band as well. Now, not all the songs are as fun to play on every instrument, but a helpful box in the song select menu rates each song on its difficulty for each instrument. Yes, guitarists will have to suffer through drum solos, bassists will suffer through guitar solos and vocalists will have lots of time for hand claps, but guess what? That's what happens in real bands!
