Featured Songs in This Week's Episode

Brother - Pearl Jam
There Was a Time - Guns N' Roses
This Love - Maroon 5

Hey everybody welcome to my first episode of Throwback Thursday. So what i want to do on throwback thursday is i want to talk about some of my favourite DLC songs that have been released by harmonix over the past 5 years of DLC they've been releasing. And you know i have no particular order in which i am going to do this in. I am going to highlight about three songs a week, i may highlight some albums too, i may highlight some packs but lets get started. So the first song i want to talk about is brother by pearl jam. Now i don't know if you guys remember but we were promised a pearl jam game for rock band that was going to feature live tracks from the band. Unfortunately that never came to fruition so instead we got a handful of pearl jam songs that were not part of the album Ten or Backspacer. Now this song Brother is one of their lesser known songs but man is it ever a good song. It's so much fun on drums and strangely enough this song came out before rock band 3 did and it features full harmonies. Apparently the pearl jam live game that was going to come out was going to feature harmonies and i guess they included them in all the DLC that was released from that band. This is one of my favourite songs to play on rock band. There's a lot of playing between the crash and the ride. You're probably going to be be playing that drum kit pretty hard in this song. It's one of my favourite songs. I highly recommend you guys go check it and for $0.99 how can you go wrong. So the next song is from Axl Rose solo project, it's called there was a time it was from chinese democracy. It's not Guns N' ROses to me because it doesn't feature Izzy, Slash, Duff or Matt or Steven anyways when this album was released to a lot of people's surprise on rock band 2. A lot of people didn't buy the album. I can probably count on two hands or one hand how many people downloaded the full album but you shouldn't let that discourage you just because it's not Guns N' Roses. There are some songs that are ton of fun to play on this album. My favourite song was There Was a Time.This is an absolute blast on guitar. If you guys love playing guitar you are going to be challenged pretty well here. THere are two blistering guitar solos you are going to be playing on. The bass is really fun and the drums are an absolute blast. There's a lot of fun little fills thrown in. I don't even think you play the same fills more than once in this entire song. The vocals of course are Axl Rose's vocals so you're going to be singing at a much higher pitch. And I've always found that Axl's voice is very hard to emulate when you're playing games like Rock Band so do yourself a favour and check out this song. Other songs that are really good from this album include Street of Dreams, Chinese Democracy, Better, IRS and Catcher in the Rye. Lets move onto our last song. So the last song of Throwback thursday is This Love by Maroon 5. Now we've had a couple of packs of maroon 5 released on rock band and to be honest a lot of the songs are not a lot of fun to play at least on drums or guitar and this one actually stands out. This is a fantastic song to play on drums. It's pretty fun on guitar as well as bass.  It's maybe not as quite as challenging on bass as it is on guitar or drums but this song on drums is definitely going to practice your closed and open hi-hat. You'll be playing a lot of closed hi-hat and snare and then you'
ll have the occasional open hi-hat thrown in there as well. This song also does feature harmonies and I do believe there is a keys part to it as well because it was released after rock band 3 came out and this song is an absolute blast and i know a lot of people may overlook maroon 5 and say well i don't like poppy stuff, but if you're looking for a fun song that's great on all instruments give this song a try that basically does it for my favourite customs of the week. I Hope to keep doing this is as a reoccuring thing every thursday. and i'd like to know if you guys have any suggestions for songs i should be covering. Maybe there's something i missed or something i don't have in my catalog.  I'd love to see your suggestions.
