HMX has released a pre-announcement of some summer DLC. The Soundgarden bit is particularly interesting since the RB1/RB2 Soundgarden tracks wouldn't import into RB3. Maybe we'll see the return of Black Hole Sun and Spoonman.

Rock Band DLC Coming This Summer!

Hey Rock Band fans! Though we’re making a lot of noise this week with the announcement of Dance Central 2 at E3, we haven’t forgotten about you. As promised, we have tons of great new music coming to Rock Band over the next couple months. If dancin’ isn’t your thing, no need to worry: we’ve still got you covered.

Coming soon

AVENGED SEVENFOLD! You guys asked for it, and we have more Avenged Sevenfold coming to Rock Band – one song from their latest album Nightmare, and one classic fan-favorite A7X track.

Poison! You demanded more hair metal, and here it is! Get out your hairspray and eye liner because we have a most excellent three-pack of hits on the way from the ‘80s band.

System of a Down! Two of the most often requested tracks from the metal band will finally be coming to the Rock Band Music Store, and one of those two songs will feature their first Pro Guitar/Bass upgrade available for RB3!

Soundgarden returns to Rock Band! An unstoppable six-pack of classic songs from the seminal grunge band will be coming your way, with most featuring Pro Guitar upgrades.

As a keys player, Take on Me is perfect for RB3.

This pack was previously announced, but here's the official HMX announcement along with the pro guitar info - they are bringing out a pro guitar track for one old piece of Soundgarden DLC, Pretty Noose. Also interesting is the info that they are working on getting Black Hole Sun and Spoonman back.

DLC Week of 7/19 - Soundgarden 6 Pack w/ 4 Pro Guitar Upgrades!

Hey gang,

This Tuesday, the seminal grunge masters make their way back to the Rock Band platform with a celebratory 6-pack of hits from across the band’s legendary career. “Outshined” and “Rusty Cage” kick off the pack, both hailing from the band’s 1991 record Badmotorfinger. From Superunknown, the band’s influential 1994 classic, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, Rock Band fans will be able to rock out to “Fell on Black Days” and “The Day I Tried to Live”. Rounding out the pack are two standout tracks from the band’s 1996 record Down on the Upside, “Blow Up the Outside World” and “Burden in My Hand”.

Also, regarding "Black Hole Sun" and "Spoonman", we are definitely aware of the fact that folks would like to see those tracks return and we're working on it. Unfortunately licensing is a bit trickier because those songs have already been released on disc.

The band is currently on tour and recording a new album. For details and dates, head to www.soundgardenworld.com

Additionally, a Pro Guitar upgrade for the previously released Soundgarden single “Pretty Noose” also arrives to the Rock Band store this week!

A few tidbits to report today - first, there is early news of a Incubus 3-pack coming in August. It will include the songs Adolescents, Pardon Me and Wish You Were Here. Now if only that last one was a Pink Floyd track.

Second, there's an interesting little "3-pack" of classical piano tracks being released on RBN (as singles only, RBN doesn't actually have packs). These very well-known tracks include Fur Elise and Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven as well as Ronda Alla Turca by Mozart. Rock Band as a classical piano training tool (albeit in 2 octaves) - that's pretty cool, and they only cost $1.

 

[Pheran]

A sampling of singles next week - I'll definitely get Heart, and maybe No Sleep till Brooklyn.

Hey gang,

This week, the Rock Band DLC release features funk, Hip Hop, and Classic Rock with 4 amazing artists. Beastie Boys kick things off with the lead single off of their 2011 release Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, “Make Some Noise” and one of their breakout rock party anthems – “No Sleep till Brooklyn”.

Lastly, Heart’s “Barracuda” arrives in the Rock Band Music Store. A frequent request on RockBand.com, this tune features an optional Pro Guitar upgrade, letting you learn the galloping riff to the 1977 classic.

Picked up Barracuda. Good song, little challenging. Playing medium, I got 99% on my first play-through, and #616 on the global chart, though I'm sure that will drop =P

Out of all the songs from License to Ill, and they picked No Sleep till Brooklyn over their most well-known song (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (to Party!). I can't believe it.

Edit: More Heart please, Harmonix!

Yeah, I don't get why they keep releasing Beastie Boys tracks without Fight For Your Right. Maybe some licensing nonsense, who knows.

 

[Pheran]

Holy crap, HMX is making me think it's my birthday or something. It seems that Primary Wave has accidentally let the cat out of the bag early. We're getting a 6-pack of Def Leppard and EVERY song has a pro upgrade! This is one of my favorite bands and I'm absolutely ecstatic about this. Regarding the live tracks, it seems very likely that the masters for Hysteria are unusable for some reason. No music game has ever had a studio version of anything from Hysteria. The versions included are from Mirrorball and that is what is linked in the OP and here.

Animal (Live) [PRO]
Bringin' on the Heartbreak [PRO]
Photograph [PRO]
Pour Some Sugar On Me (Live) [PRO]
Rock of Ages [PRO]
Undefeated [PRO]

 

[Raduque]

Yay, Def Leppard!

I'm definitely getting the middle 4 tracks in that list.

 

[Pheran]

I don't know why Harmonix hasn't fixed this problem yet, but it looks like more upcoming DLC has been discovered by trying URLs on their website. This is all unofficial, but based on what has been found there are upcoming tracks from Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fall Out Boy, Pearl Jam and EMF. More details are available at RockBandAide.

 

[Pheran]

Heads up, the Xbox Live Gold deal of the week is Rock Band packs from Metallica, Blink-182, Lady Gaga, Bon Jovi and Queen. See RockBandAide for full details.

 

[Pheran]

Sorry for the late post this week, I was camping. Anyway, up next week we've got a 3-pack from Fall Out Boy with a couple of modern hits, and an epic-length track from Deep Purple (10:18!). I like two of the FOB tracks, so I'll at least get those. Child in Time is pretty good, but I'm not sure how many times I really want to play a 10-minute track in Rock Band.

DLC Week of 8/16 - Fall Out Boy 3 Pack and Deep Purple!

Hey gang,

Fall Out Boy make their triumphant return to Rock Band this week, dropping an amazing 3-pack of some of their biggest hits.

The pack is rounded out by “Thnks fr th Mmrs” the smash hit from the band’s platinum follow-up, Infinity on High.

Joining this Fall Out Boy 3-pack is an amazing single from Deep Purple, Child in Time. The hard rock pioneers are best known to Rock Band fans as the band behind “Highway Star”, the standout Rock Band track that also underscored the first Rock Band disc’s cinematic.

A few tidbits to report today - first, there is early news of a Incubus 3-pack coming in August. It will include the songs Adolescents, Pardon Me and Wish You Were Here. Now if only that last one was a Pink Floyd track.

This Incubus pack is arriving next week. Three songs is a little light, but there is a big RHCP pack the week after.
