It’s true. The End of Days is upon us. Gather up your jackets, move it to the exits — it’s closing time. But we have one last call for alcohol! Four last calls, in fact. Assuming you drink 120-proof Rock Band songs. And, honestly, who doesn’t?

This week, much like our anniversary celebrations, we’re highlighting one of C3’s cornerstone elements. The Guitar Hero series is a prime source of multitrack audio and note charts, and even after years of GHtoRB3 and C3 releases, there’s tons of songs yet to convert. Let’s clean them out! These 13 songs bring us that much closer to the full GH library, and many will have you wondering why we didn’t do them sooner. From Duffy to Sonic Youth, from R&B to hard rock, there’s something for everyone here. As usual, our GH ports include keys and harmonies where applicable and often include chart fixes and adjustments.

Authors’ comments for this week’s songs:

“Fascination Street” – Bearz writes, “This single from The Cure’s acclaimed Disintegration has a cool disco beat and a unique, spacey guitar part, as well as a nice (albeit repetitive) bass line.”

“Mexicola” – Bearz writes, “This hard rock tune from early QotSA has some great guitar and bass riffage, as well as lots of fills and tom usage on drums.”

“Incinerate” – Bearz writes, “This upbeat but mellow song from Sonic Youth’s more recent output has some tricky fills and rhythms on drums, and a varied and fun guitar part, complete with a Rhythm version so you can play both Thurston and Lee’s parts.”

“Scumbag Blues” – Finally, more TCV! It’s a shame that RB3 only got “Dead End Friends” and “New Fang”, neither of which I would consider highlights of the album. In lieu of “Mind Eraser”, “Bandoliers”, or “Gunman”, here’s a pretty good replacement from GH6. Lengthy guitar solos, REALLY good and varied basslines, and some decent kick action on drums.

“Guilty Pleasures” – DVDSmith writes, “This awesome track, originally released for GH5 as part of the ‘Neversoft Thanks the Fans’ pack, is a blisteringly fun instrumental piece by guitarist Tony Solis, and features the ridiculous drumming skills of Andy Gentile (of An Endless Sporadic fame). Players of Pro Drums will get a serious kick out of this, the chart takes you all over the kit and uses all three cymbals and both bass pedals to the full effect. The guitar and bass parts aren’t too shabby either, with a great riff in the first half and some TTFAF-style HOPO-heavy sections in the second half. If you’re an Expert player and want a great challenge on all the core 5-lane instruments, this is the song for you.”
