The charts look pretty good to me, so at least people can't complain about that side of things. Or maybe they will anyway.
They do seem pretty easy to us, but you have to remember that not everybody is as good as us at the game. If they always released songs such as Ernten Was Wir Saen or songs more difficult than Raining Blood or TTFAF to five star, people would get pissed off at how difficult all of the DLC is. It's a wide market - we're only one part of it.
Edit: Just finished watching the last video - Shoot The Runner. It looks really fun to play.
There's some decent quality videos of Shoot The Runner and Problems available here. The STR video is an FC, and the Problems video is a -2 (well, the description says that anyway =P). _________________

No.
Looking at the festival line-up they could have released a reasonably good pack with the bands available insteas they've released a pack most people will play once and never again.
I mean So Naive by The Kooks, ANYTHING by Iggy and the Stooges, and Vacant by the Sex Pistols (or Godsave the Queen) would have been a decent pack.
Not getting this. I'll save my points for RB DLC instead |

Bought the pack yesterday, here's my comments:
Overall, a very easy pack, probably the easiest one up till now. All songs are easily FCable, so if you're looking for a challenge, I wouldn't spend my money on it. Overall difficulty: If these songs were in the career setlist, they wouldn't be any higher than tier 2. Maybe 3, max. 'Shoot The Runner' is the best and probably most challenging (although still very easy) song, it's fun to play and it sounds great (never heard Kasabian before). It's got a somewhat challenging and original (but fun to play and listen too) switching chords section.
'I Predict A Riot' is the easiest one. During the whole first minute/minute and a half of this song, you don't play more than 50 notes. All of them long sustains. For a while I was thinking I accidentally put it on medium...The song still sounds great though, and there's some minor challenge in the three-button chord sections, but most of you will probably FC it on sightread.
'Problems' is mediocre. It's a shame it's a live version, I'm not very fond of live versions in GH. Note chart is decent, not overcharted, and is probably one of the more easiest songs (if not the easiest) you can score more than 500k on. _________________

Yeah, i bought this pack yesterday. I agree that this pack is ridiculously easy. I had a sightread FC on I Predict a Riot and a -1 and -2 on each of the others because of stupid little rythem mistakes.
Shoot the Runner- IMO the funnest song of the pack. This one is very FCable. There are some tricky parts in the solo but its definately one to work on if you dont have the enlightend achievement.
Problems- Complete chord-fest. The sp is very obvious right from the start in that there focused around activating at the 3 chord segments everytime. FCable as long as you are good at chords.
I Predict a Riot- Kind of a joke of a song challenge wise however again an easy FC if your going for the achievement.
Id recommend getting this pack if you need your 20 FCs still. All three are FC possible. However if your sitting on 1000 microsoft points and there are no previous packs you still want then wait for the next 3 dlcs that are supposedly coming out this month. _________________

This pack sucks. Really badly. The Sex Pistols song might have a chance but the other two songs without a doubt suck really badly. Nice to know that after a surge of good DLC we're right back to playing slow, sucky songs with a bunch of sustains. |

neversoft seems great at having me keep my money, seeing as most of the good dlc have been free. Works for me though. |

All i know is people who would bitch about the diffuculty of EWWS probably aren't interested enough in GH to buy DLC. DLC is mostly bought by good players, so i don't see that as a reason as to why they'd put really easy and boring songs as DLC.
About the DLC:
Problems looks really really fun. Hard in one or 2 spots, but nothing i can't FC. _________________

I like how everyone loooooves Rock Band's easy/boring/pointless DLC weekly, and when Guitar Hero does something in that realm everyone pukes.
You people don't even know what you want anymore. More DLC or quality DLC? Harder songs or easier songs? High scores or good charts? Any song that is one of these things gets shunned for not being the other. It's stupid, disgusting, and unintelligent.
I'm buying it for it being DLC, but that's just me. _________________

Sorry for the double, but I'd just like to emphasize that this is an intelligent post =3 _________________
