    Quoted from JMK:

    Music from Bands like MET and ACDC lend them selves well to high adreniline, fast paced and frenetic action. Instrumental music could work well if properly assimilated into the game play though IMO may not carry a similar level of 'intensity'.

    Quoted from RobT:

    You act as those Stern could just *choose* to do any of those licenses (Pink Floyd, Beatles) but that's not the case. Licensing would be a serious hurdle.

    I think these two posts sum up any real hurtles for a music pin that isn't as wide reaching as a Kiss or AC/DC.

    But, while we're daydreaming, why not just kill two birds with one stone and release a Guardians Of The Galaxy pin featuring the full soundtrack. It would be a great compromise for a sweeping of genres and tempo as far as music goes, it would reach a large crowd, and the licensing would be expensive yet possibly more reachable since it was all already brought together for a soundtrack. (Plus Stern specifically likes working directly with the "showrunners" of these things sometimes, and James Gunn would be excellent for championing this pin through Marvel and Disney.
