Maybe it is just me but the last few expansion packs have been stuff I can't really see using in my game at all and this Masquerade themed stuff would NEVER occur to me to have. I just can't imagine using any of that stuff. I guess maybe it is time that the franchise wrapped it up if this is where the creators have come to. We still don't have the ability to make something as simple as bands. I need drums.
I personally don't understand the issue, as most kits are normal/everyday/relatable stuff, and only some are even a bit niche themed to more era/fantasy/etc. themes. Plus, besides Bust the Dust, kits generally do not have gameplay so don't expect gameplay and features from kits.
Also, this bundle was clearly intended to be paired with the last EP, so much I wonder if it was suppose to be released at the same time, but had to push back for whatever reason.
Basically, though I know bands are a top want for players, and I am not saying you are wrong for wanting that. You just can't blame themed kits—for you not getting bands.
It is my understanding that Royalty & Legacy was the last paid expansion pack. Of course this has not been officially confirmed but it appears that The Sims 4 will only be getting Kits, Maker Packs and base game patches from now on.
