Entire Rock Band 2 list leaked? News

PlayStation 2 Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 Wii
News by Robert Purchese

9 July, 2008

The entire Rock Band 2 track list appears to have been spilled all over the Internet like a drink.

One of you has uploaded a video to YouTube (spotted by videogaming247) that scrolls through each of the nine collections you'll work through in the campaign.

There's no official word on its legitimacy, but those songs proven to be authentic earlier are replicated here, and to our eyes it could just be the real deal.

Unfortunately the video stops short of scrolling through each song, leaving us with the titles but not the bands. So we're asking for your help to fill them in, Eurogamer reader. Show us your knowledge.

The songs, then, are as follows:

Warmup

  • "If You Wanna Get to Heaven"

You can find a lot of these out by punching the title into Wikipedia. It (usually) responds with the correct page if it's a popular/famous track.

edit: forgot to mention. AWESOME track list!

You Oughta Know is an Alanis Morrisette track isn't it?

And Feed My Frankenstein is an Alice Cooper song.

Black Betty? Isn't that Tom Jones?

American Woman was by The Guess Who's, but I believe Lenny Kravitz also did a cover, so it could be his version.

I should really do one post instead of one at a time. There is a course a third option, which is go home.

2 Minutes to Midnight is quite obviously Iron Maiden and November Rain is quite obviously Guns N' Roses and Kickstart My Heart is quite obviously Motley Crue.

And Leatherface you are quite obviously wrong.

I cannot wait to play Machinehead by Bush. One of my very favourite songs from their stable!

/reminisces about being back in the sixth form and discovering that album...

EDIT: yes, the video is bloody awful :P

BEst thing on that list is probably Comfortably Numb. That solo is orgasmic. Hope it's true.

The few that immediately jumped out at me:

Gold Lion is the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, I should imagine.

Possum Kingdom is The Toadies (assuming it's the same song as in GH2)

Zombie must be the Cranberries - and if so then I shall be very happy; it'll be /great/ to sing.

White Wedding is Billy Idol, or one of the many covers.

(I can't get no) Satisfaction is the Rolling Stones, I hope.

Aqualung - Jethro Tull

Down With The Sickness - Disturbed.

Edit: removed the ones I noticed had already been mentioned.

That video showing the tracklist clearly shows 'Panic Attack' as by Finger Eleven, not Dream Theater.

Hmm, it looks fishy to me too. Fuel's drumming is nowhere near as tough as that video suggests (it'd place it alongside Blackened on a Quick Play list).

Also: I want it to be fake as Hungry Like The Wolf isn't on the list.

The vid looks like a photoshop of the original leak image from G4TV with the G4 banner at the bottom chopped off and with the songs off the list someone posted on the earlier news post put on it. Evidence: the vid says it's Finger Eleven for Panic Attack, and Harmonix's press release on Kotaku confirms it as Dream Theater.

Hyper Music by MUSE will be amazing, although I think it will be really hard to sing.

It's fake. Check out the typo - 'What's Your Frequency Kenneth?' The song title is "What's The Frequency, Kenneth"?

Sorry, but won't I be able to download these songs from the marketplace? EA are off their rocker if they think I'm buying another RB at full price, when all they're offering is a few more songs I'd like to play.

Hope Folsom Prison Blues is true.

"I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die."

As Mark Radcliffe says... "If you don't like that, you don't like music."

Also, if you look at the difficulty level for each of the highlighted tracks, it doesn't go up in order as to how it should correspond with the tier the track is in.

I believe The Bleeding is by the rather splendid Five Finger Death Punch, I can't tell you how excited they might be in the game, even if it's not the best song on the album if you ask me.

One Step Closer may be Linkin Park, or maybe just one of their lyrics. Fergot.

I've also heard that the list is fake. Loads of mis-spellings apparently. Could feasibly be pre-QA, but unlikely as that sort of thing is unlikely to be entered by hand in the first place.
