I'm wondering what people would say if Guitar Hero marketing dept was putting video of the gameplay without revealing the soundtrack of the game with only 27 days before release.

Will put in game:
Bush – Sound of Winter (The Sea of Memories)
Dropkick Murphys – Hang ‘em High (Going out in Style)
ELO – Don’t Bring Me Down (Mr. Blue Sky: The Very Best of ELO)
Judas Priest – You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’ (Screaming for Vengeance)

Might:
Anthrax – I’m Alive (Worship Music)- No videos of it anywhere, so NHL12 might be first time anyone hears this

Against! Me – Occult Enemies (Russian Spies/Occult Enemies)- Everything on the song is good except the singing

Black Tide – That Fire (Post Mortem)

Blackguard – Farewell (Firefight)- If it's just the instrumental, then I'd have this in the game

Wont:
Beady Eye – Standing on the Edge of the Noise (Different Gear, Still Speeding)
Billy Idol – Mony Mony (The Very Best of Billy Idol)
Death Letters – I Wish I could Steal a Sunset (Post-Historic)
Manchester Orchestra – April Fool (Simple Math)
Middle Class Rut – Busy Being Born (No Name No Color)
Murderdolls – Whatever you got, I’m Against It (Women and Children Last)

How can you not like Manchester Orchestra or Middle Class Rut?

Hell, how can you not like Middle Class Rut?

What is the matter with you?

# 5 plaidchuck @ 08/16/11 06:34 PM

Well at least we PS3 users can change the music now, hell that's one of the best "modes" they've added in a while.

Maybe because music is 100% subjective

# 7 murph17 @ 08/16/11 08:59 PM

DKM - Hang 'em High is awesome. as is most of that album.

# 8 synjin @ 08/16/11 11:04 PM

I've never heard of Middle Class Rut(or any of the songs on this list, but I listened to all and I just can't picture myself playing nhl 12 and having that song playing).

Manchester Orchestra I liked their song for MLB 11, just didn't like this one.

# 10 DeconstruKt @ 08/17/11 12:51 AM

meh.

I still miss the soundtracks from NHL 97-2002.

Guess ill be using my ripped CD custom track for those again

# 11 jyoung @ 08/17/11 01:11 AM

I don't understand why sports game soundtracks this generation are still so small. Only 14 songs?

Didn't Brutal Legend, another EA game, have like 100 songs from 70 bands or something?

Oh well, thankfully we have custom soundtracks, and I don't have to listen to any of this EA Trax nonsense.

No, heard it in the Entertainment Forums here. They have it playing on their website or whatever. Killer track, though I'm not fond of Belladonna being back. Even if it was the best years for the group.

I don't either.. I know we can import music, but the default ST should have at least double of what it has.

probably because of the reason you just mentioned. EA knows that 100% of the hardcore players that will be putting countless hours into this game will use their own custom tracks anyway. the casual players most likely wont care since they'll be done w/ the game after a few weeks or so only playing sporadically during the hockey season, if that.

hey, atleast it saves EA money that they use toward making the game better like adding goalie fights!!! (end sarcasm)

The sad things is.. you're probably right. I NEVER want to see the goalies fight.. ugh.. what a waste..

# 16 Inhocmark @ 08/17/11 02:56 PM

ELO!!!!

I don't know why that makes me giddy

FIFA's soundtracks are always good and they always have 30+ songs.

# 18 goosedennis @ 08/18/11 06:17 AM

Looks like I'll have another year of liking a few songs in here, then not knowing any of the rest. I'll probably be completely senile by the end of the first week I have the game.

My wife's been getting nuts with one track every year. For NHL 11, it's "Unstoppable" that she can't stand.

I guess she got so tired of hearing the tracks for one year that's why she offered me Turtle Beach X41 few weeks ago for birthday!
