Rock Band 4: 10 Awesome Songs That Must Be Included

2. Metallica - Fade To Black

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEQnzs8wl6E The biggest metal band of them all, and one that although they had a track-pack dedicated to them in Rock Band 1, also ended up having it pulled as they signed over to NeverSoft for their own Guitar Hero spin-off. Now maybe that contract is still binding or maybe they've been freed up, but hopefully it's the latter as 'Tallica have far too many suitably gigantic songs to go to waste on a next-gen Rock Band experience. Fade to Black got chosen here as it's one of their best longer tracks emblematic of everything they did better than the rest back in the 80's. From James Hetfield's descriptive lyrics to Kirk Hammett's Joe Satriani-taught guitar passages, the whole back half of this is just instrumental perfection, and a total showcase for a band that redefined the very genre of metal itself.
