They're all fine songs and everything, but you'd think with the pretty reasonable depth that Australian music has, they could have found better stuff. Especially given in the entire song list on the disc and what they have for DLC at the moment, they only have one Australian band (The Living End).

I didn't realise how much more expensive Guitar Hero tracks are compared to Rock Band. Rock band downloads are $2.45, so cheaper.

Holy ****! I seriously had no idea that The Vines were australian, I thought they were Poms for some reason.

What do you mean only one Australian band? Airbourne is in GH:WT and they're Australian aren't they?

Haha, are you serious? (Actually yes, you say you are)...

Fair enough - probably because they were the darlings of NME and the like when they first got going - yes that'll do.

While this is cool and all, shouldn't the fact its DLC mean we could be getting Australian songs all the time? I understand that it is perhaps too niche for the disc content, but DLC should negate this, as theres plenty of niche crap in there.

True true, but it doesn't make the band any less Australian.

Bleh, they could've atleast picked a good Silverchair song. And The Vines suck. Atleast it has Wolfmother. Would've preferred more Living End. Or AC/DC, though I realise they probably can't include AC/DC legally, or they would've by now.

Wow, sobriquet - how many opinions can you stuff into one post? At least I now know where you stand on Australian music, and my life is the better for it.

your explanation/assumption is largely correct - they were very much the NME darlings of the time.
but they also went to the UK to record their first album because they couldn't get a record deal in Australia - they'd had some triple J airplay before they were signed, but still couldn't get a record deal here.

but Benza isn't the only one getting their nationality wrong, i remember the CD review of their first album in the US Rolling Stone, and they thought they were Americans putting on fake pommy accents, and scored them down for it.

Weren't they on the cover as well? Something about them being the first Australian band since...someone else ages ago.

Actually on Xbox 360 they are the same (160 per song 440 for a pack of 3)

Rock Band is still much better though
