Sub Pop records (who released Diary, LP2, and HIFTBSO, as well as Return of the Frog Queen) is among the first labels to sign on with Rock Band Network. According to Sub Pop Head of A&R Tony Kiewel, when asked by GameInformer about which artists were getting the Rock Band treatment first:
"We're releasing all the Sunny Day Real Estate records, and those are big guitar, bass, and drum songs for the most part that are pretty epic and I think would be fun to play."
