Just how badly do you want this thing to suck? As if it's not bad enough they have Stinkin' Fart logos on it, you want it to also come with their..."music"?


"Stinkin' Fart"
"I hate Nickelback"
"Metallica Sucks"
Etc...

Do you people ever find an artist, group, band, whatever, that you actually like and stick with it? I mean, seriously. It's always an "I hate..." kinda deal.

Obviously, there's something there, otherwise no money would be made. And last I checked, Linkin Park is still making money.

...hmm, yep. Still cashin' checks. So...

He's just dishing out some well expected hate, just gota take it in stride. (Atleast hes adding some creativity to the names too, not a fully wasted post :P)
Theres lots of bands I have stuck to. But I'll give you just one for now. Judas Priest. Not that I'd want a Judas Priest Soundwave even if he DID do a song for the movie. Obviously its all about the money. That will always remain the bottom line to all creative ideas coming out of Hasbro.
Anyway, its just fun to rag on something you don't like; it's nothing substantial to argue over.

EDIT: I WOULD have liked a Stan Bush Soundwave. Even if I do find some songs extremely cheesey and bordering on lame, its got the nostalgia and history with the brand. THATS what you turn.. uh.. gold?.. goldish..colour. Not some new age stuff that is meant to appeal to the current generation... but ya, money.

eh, let it go. I use to be a big LP fan, but their last two albums have been stinkers.

And Stan Bush ... dear god no, the man has never really had a hit, he's just popular with a fanbase for one song from an animated movie from the 80's.

But.. that song was in American dad too... And he had altogether 3 songs that have to do with Transformers. The touch, dare, and that new one with WFC footage in the background and the boobies. Plus his songs were during the movie, not just the end credits. SO THERE!

How can you stick with something you were never very fond of to begin with? I'll give you Metallica...I was into them before they sold out, but if you can't tell the difference between their pre 'Black Album' music vs post, there's something wrong with your ears. They're not even remotely the same band. It's like G1 vs Beast Wars...yeah, they're all called Transformers, but they're not even close to the same thing.

PS...Picklesack? Really?

He did the botcon theme for 07 (I Think?). It was a remixed version of his "Ground Zero".

This article sums it up nicely:

Anyways, this is a pretty strange cross-over release, but I'm sure some people will really be glad to have the closest thing to a Lucky Draw Soundwave that will ever come out. I just won't be one of them...
