2.0 out of 5 stars Wheres the metal?, December 26, 2009

This review is from: Rock Band: Metal Track Pack (Video Game)

Im a long time metal listener, and I have a wide range of metal tastes, but it seems like someone who doesn't know much about metal put this together. Theres a few bands on here that aren't even considered metal bands(Queens of the Stone Age, I Mother Earth, Hawkwind) and they managed to leave out a few major genres of metal, like Black Metal. For those that dont know Black Metal and Death Metal were pretty much the predominant metal genres of the 90's. So apparently it made sense to them to include some non-metal bands at the expense of including ANY black metal at all. Lame.

So lets go through some fundamental metal genres and see if any of the widely recognized major acts were included:

The "big 4" of Thrash Metal:

Anthrax? Nope

Megadeth? Nope

Metallica? Nope

Slayer? Nope

Major Death Metal Bands:

Morbid Angel? Nope

Death? Nope

Cannibal Corpse? Nope

Obituary? Nope

Major Melodic Death Metal Bands:

At the Gates? Hey! theres one!

Dark Tranquility? Nope

In Flames? Nope

Children of Bodom? Ok! thats two! But why this song?

Major Black Metal Bands:

Emperor? Nope

Mayhem? Nope

Burzum? Nope

Immortal? Nope

Major Original Heavy Metal Bands:

Black Sabbath? Nope

Judas Priest? Hey! thats 3!

Iron Maiden? Nope

Motorhead? Ok! thats 4!

Major 80's Glam Metal Bands:

Motley Crue? Nope

Ratt? Nope

Skid Row? Nope

Europe? Nope

Major Power Metal Bands:

Iced Earth? Nope

Blind Guardian? Nope

Stratovarius? Nope

Helloween? Nope

Major Progressive Metal Bands:

Dream Theater? Nope

Opeth? Nope

Symphony X? Nope

Nevermore? Nope

Major Doom Metal Bands:

My Dying Bride? Nope

Katatonia? Nope

Paradise Lost? Nope

Anathema? Nope

I could go on and on with other metal genres but you get the point. I understand that they cant include everything on this disk, but what is shocking is what they chose to put in INSTEAD of what I listed above. Some big genres aren't even represented on the disk. With such a wide selection of metal to choose from in this world they only decided to include a few, threw in some stuff that wasn't even metal in order to fill up a disk, and ignored a whole bunch of metal. This gets 2 stars because they at least got a few right, but for the most part this disk is way off. Metal is my favorite music genre and I dont even want this track pack! That says something!
