Well, here it is. A breakdown for the crazy people who just can't stick to one instrument. OMB difficulty ratings are very controversial so any input is greatly appreciated (as I myself am a guitar-based player, my rankings may be skewed toward drum difficulty more than they should be. Input from drummers is doubly appreciated.) Except for the very hard songs on vocals, I've stayed away from basing the rankings on the vocal track because it is different for everybody.

GH:World Tour

  1. What I've Done - Very easy on all four instruments
  2. No Sleep Till' Brooklyn - Vocals is the only all-talky song in the game; but the guitar is very hard
  3. About a Girl - Nothing hard here
  4. On the Road Again - Drums are stupid, everything else is stupidly easy
  5. Today - Fairly easy on everything
  6. Up Around the Bend - Guitar has a strange fill that's tricky until you get the hang of it
  7. The Joker - Nothing hard here
  8. The Middle - Some VERY fast strumming on guitar is the only hard part
  9. Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast - Guitar solo is the only hard part
  10. Hail to the Freaks - Easy
  11. Eye of the Tiger - Guitar is strummy
  12. Float On - Really not very hard on anything
  13. Are You Gonna Go My Way - Nothing hard
  14. Livin' On a Prayer - Guitar solo is annoying with purple notes
  15. Monsoon - I LOVE this song
  16. Weapon of Choice - Easy
  17. The One I Love - Easysauce
  18. Band On the Run - Fairly tricky on drums in places
  19. Beautiful Disaster - Meh
  20. Some Might Say - Sitting through this song on all four instruments is hard enough on it's own, let alone FC'ing
  21. Good God - HARD on vox
  22. Spiderwebs - Guitar has the fast trill, and drums are pretty tough
  23. Aggro - Meh
  24. The Kill - Pretty long and chokable on everything
  25. Escuela de Calor - Meh
  26. Vinternoll2 - A few pretty easy rolls on drums are the only problem
  27. La Bamba - Not too hard
  28. Re-Education For Labor - This is last tier guitar how?
  29. You're Gonna Say Yeah - Drums are fast
  30. Misery Business - Annoying on drums
  31. Stillborn - Hard guitar solo
  32. Go Your Own Way - Drums are odd
  33. Beat It - One of the toughest in the game on guitar and vox, one of the easiest on bass and drums
  34. Nuvole E Lenzuola - Medium difficulty drums and pretty tough vox
  35. Pretty Vacant - Fairly fast drums, very easy vox
  36. The Wind Cries Mary - Drums have some tough fills
  37. Antisocial - Annoying, but much easier than it looks
  38. Mountain Song - Somewhat tricky on everything, especially drums and guitar
  39. Do It Again - Pretty tough all around
  40. Feel the Pain - Hard on drums, guitar is tricky at the end
  41. Dammit - Travis Barker on drums means this one isn't easy
  42. Shiver - Boring, but moderately hard
  43. Rebel Yell - Pretty tough guitar and drums
  44. Hey Man, Nice Shot - Annoying on drums and bass
  45. Santeria - Fairly tough on everything
  46. Rooftops - Hard drums
  47. One Armed Scissor - *insert comment here*
  48. Lazy Eye - Long and chokable on every instrument
  49. Our Truth - Nothing too hard
  50. Freak On a Leash - Drums are very hard, and bass is oddly difficult as well
  51. One Way Or Another - Hardest vocals song in the game, drums are hard too
  52. Everlong - Drums are VERY hard, the rest are easy
  53. Love Me Two Times - Probably the most annoying guitar chart ever
  54. Toy Boy - Worst song in the game
  55. Obstacle 1 - Hard drums, bass is confusing in spots
  56. Ramblin' Man - Long, with a swing beat
  57. Love Spreads - Long, boring, and chokeable
  58. Hotel California - Glitched note on drums make this much harder than it should be
  59. Heartbreaker - Probably the first song that could truly be called "hard" on everything
  60. Sweet Home Alabama - Hard, long, and chokable, especially the guitar
  61. Prisoner of Society - Hard guitar, fairly easy drums
  62. Kick Out the Jams - Hard drums, medium guitar
  63. American Woman - Hard drums, medium guitar
  64. Demolition Man - Super tough drums, hard guitar
  65. Never Too Late - Hard guitar and drums
  66. Mr. Crowley - Ridiculous guitar, and drums have a couple tricky spots
  67. Satch Boogie - Guitar is arguably the hardest single instrument FC in the game, but drums and bass are easy, and vox are non-existant
  68. L'Via L'Viaquez - Very hard on everything
  69. Hollywood Nights - This song is so annoying to FC, and drums has a bunch of broken notes
  70. Crazy Train - Very hard guitar, and hard drums
  71. Love Removal Machine - Super tough guitar, pretty hard drums
  72. Scream Aim Fire - Super hard drums and very hard guitar as well due to purple notes
  73. Trapped Under Ice - Very overrated drums IMO, but still nasty on drums and guitar
  74. Schism - Definitely the easiest of the Tool songs, but it's still Tool (loldrums)
  75. Assassin - Ridiculous drums, and guitar has the fastest strumming in the game
  76. Soul Doubt - So fast and random on every instrument
  77. B.Y.O.B. - Bass is 0_o, and guitar and drums are very hard
  78. Parabola - Long and hard on everything, especially drums
  79. Vicarious - Absolute insanity on drums, one of the hardest bass songs in the game, and guitar isn't exactly a cakewalk
  80. Purple Haze - Drums are one of the hardest in the game, and the guitar's difficulty is quadrupled with the broken purple notes. Bass is also very annoying.
  81. Stranglehold - There is a glitched note on drums. Oh yeah, and the 6 minute long guitar solo, the really fast bass outro, and the rest of the song on drums
  82. Pull Me Under - Dream Theater. 'Nuff said.
  83. Overkill - Yeah yeah, but even without the glitch on drums this is insane on all instruments (-vox)
  84. Hot For Teacher - Second hardest on guitar and bass, and third(?) hardest on drums. Yeah, this is killer.

  35. Hit the Lights - Quick bass and ending on drums, solo is hard on guitar

TIRING (Vox is one of the easiest in the game, being around 80% talkie.)
  46. One - FSA on guitar. Even if you are good enough for the guitar chart, you need to handle the tricky bass stuff on drums, + the annoying rolls.
  47. Fight Fire With Fire - Hard on guitar, even harder on bass. Drums are also pretty hard. (And the outro on vox is the hardest thing to FC in the game, with large and fast jumps repeated over and over again.)
  48. All Nightmare Long - Stupid strumming + guitar solos on guitar, rolls on drums. Tricky bass as well.
  49. Dyers Eve - Dumbest/Hardest chart ever on bass, hard guitar solos AND stupid hard drums. Almost no rolls in the whole song though.

I REALLY doubt NSTB is #1. That is all.

yeah the guitar and drums on NSTB are harder than almost all of those other songs. i have never fced the guitar and never came close on drums. the fact that vocals are all talkies is kinda moot because most of those songs are easy vocals fcs. actually something like 3/5 songs in WT are easy on vocals with practice imo.

NSTB guitar is harder than any part on any other song in that list (except maybe Obstacle 1 drums), but every other instrument is practically auto-FC so I'd move that way up. Obstacle 1's vocals and guitar are extremely easy but drums make up for it.

I'd take What I've done to #1, AAG #2, Today #3 and move NSTB and O1 to 11 and 13 respectively. Keep Mountain song above NSTB because of the combined difficulty of drums and guitar. YGSY #10 due to medium difficulty guitar and bass.

I haven't played any of the other songs enough to have a full opinion, but I know for a fact none of them are as hard as NSTB guitar, or Obstacle 1 drums on anything.

When you get there, I think that Hot for Teacher should be the hardest. It has a hard guitar, hard drums, I don't know about bass, and it actually has vocals, unlike Satch Boogie.

Ive never even tried playing WT as a full band. This topic would belong better in the Band/Multitasking forum (I know its rarely visited, but still....)

OMB=One man band. Read more. But still, you're right; it should go in the multitasking forum.

Also, Silly listed everything pretty much perfectly.

I'm sure it's been said already, but NSTB is most certainly not #1. Even with the other three ridiculously easy parts, the guitar part itself is enough to warrant probably at least spot 25.

What I've Done is the easiest by far. It takes ten times as much skill to get any other OMB FC.

And you can go ahead and put these in the breakdown here because it's' a no brainer where they go:

Hot for Teacher - #83
Satch Boogie - #84

And if you're interested in doing GHM and GHSH:

Dyer's Eve - #47
Either One or War Ensemble (probably One #48, Ensemble #49)

Through the Fire and Flames - #48 (I think that's how many songs are in SH)

Nice job so far, though. It's cool to read these breakdowns.

It has the hardest bass to FC haha. H4T is undoubtedly the hardest OMB FC despite Solo D of Satch.

EDIT: Ignoring Overkill on drums, obviously.

Obstacle 1 Needs to be way higher on that list...The drums on that are simply...Well...

And I'd put Re-Education (Not that you even have it on there) Around close to the bottom there personally, there's not much that makes it hard on any instrument. (Well, I'm not 100% Sure about drums)

The thing with rating OMB FC's is, it's about all the instruments not just one. It's kind of hard to explain without examples, so basically what smoky said. HFT is the hardest OMB FC, despite it not being the hardest FC on any instrument (bass is debatable I guess, but I've always heard BYOB is the hardest by far; I don't play bass though.) Like, Satch guitar is harder, Vicarious drums is harder I think, not too knowledgeable on drums, especially GH drums, a lot of vocals are harder, and BYOB is arguably harder. But it's still the hardest OMB FC because every instrument is nearly the hardest to FC. So although NSTB guitar isn't really easy, it's still a very easy OMB FC, because if you get guitar you're guaranteed to get the OMB FC, provided you try for it and can play drums a little bit.

This is my take on it at least.

This is my take on it at least.


People have different amount of skill on different instruments. Thus, someone could find a song that is tougher than TTFAF on guitar but has no bass/vocals/drums part to be the easiest OMBFC, because they're the greatest guitar player ever but are tone deaf and deathly allergic to the materials made to use the drum set (I'm just kidding about that allergy thing but you see where I'm going). For many people, breakdowns like this depend on what instrument you're good at. But here's how it goes - FCing Satch on guitar is FAR, FAR, FAR harder than FCing any other song on any other instrument. Vicarious drums are pretty damn tough but can't touch Satch. You can't just add the skill required from all instruments together and call it a fair breakdown. If that was the case, Satch probably wouldn't even be past #30 on the breakdown, because its bass is easy, its drums are only average and its vocals aren't existent.

I think if this is going to be accurate, equal skill in each instrument should be assumed, like how in the guitar breakdown equal skill in each aspect of guitar is assumed. Of course there is no one like this, so it's tough to do.

Just for reference, I'm going to post the extreme opposite of NSTB. although it's on Rock Band, Visions is the toughest on-disk OMBFC. Guitar is very difficult, drums are insane, bass is ungodly difficult, yet vocals are so easy it's comparable to vocals on beginner in the GH games.

So yes, I believe NSTB deserves the spot of easiest OMBFC.
