Rock Band Weekly: Tom Petty, Go-Go’s, Kelly Clarkson, Pink

November 20th, 2009 at 12:30pm Under Xbox 360

A live version of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers’ “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” is available next week within the band’s Rock Band DLC six-pack. The song may not be everyone’s cup of formaldehyde, but it’s certainly memorable for conjuring up one of the creepiest music videos of all time. We have no idea what the song is actually about, but it will always be the story of Tom Petty stealing Kim Basinger’s corpse from the morgue, dressing her up, and then at the end …. AHHhhHhHHHH!

Check out the full update after the break, no new Rock Band Unplugged DLC next week.

Update: PSN will updated on Tuesday.

Rock Band Weekly: The White Stripes, The Damned, Kasabian

November 6th, 2009 at 12:20pm Under Wii / Nintendo+ Xbox 360

.

Forget that Jack White finds it “depressing” that kids are learning about music through rhythm games — there’s gold in them thar virtual hills! Next week’s Rock Band DLC adds a pack of songs from The White Stripes, with tracks off of three different albums.

We’ve also added this little guy to Rock Band Weekly:
. He indicates tracks that are considered “family-friendly” enough for Lego Rock Band. Such marked songs will be available in LRB’s music store, as well as appearing in the regular Rock Band music store. [Thanks to our friend Dustin Burg for the Lego head!]

Check out the update after the break, along with what Rock Band Unplugged players can expect for DLC next week.

Rock Band Weekly: Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Joan Jett

October 30th, 2009 at 12:30pm Under PSP


Next week’s Rock Band DLC could have been a little Dave Grohl fiesta, offering up tracks from his days back in Nirvana and now with Foo Fighters, but it turns out that he wasn’t with the genre defining grunge band until after Bleach, which happens to be part of next week’s DLC. But, we’re pretty sure Grohl was with Foo Fighters during the time they recorded the tracks that make up the band’s third DLC pack for the music game.

Completely unrelated to Grohl (maybe there’s a six degrees of separation in there?), there will also be one track from Ms. Joan Jett thrown in the mix. Check out the update after the break, along with what portable players can expect from Rock Band Unplugged’s DLC.

Rock Band Weekly: Brutal Legend pack, Black Tide, Blink-182, Satriani, Kansas, L7

October 9th, 2009 at 11:40am Under PSP

Corporate synergy is well at work when the Brütal Legend pack rolls its way into next week’s Rock Band DLC update. The track grouping includes Mötorhead, Tenacious D and Testament. To wash all that metal down, there are also individual songs from Kansas and Blink 182. For those upset by all of this: you can pull a “Jeremy” in front of the class*, which joins Unplugged next week.

*Yeah, don’t do that.

Check out the full Rock Band Weekly update, along with the update for Rock Band Unplugged, after the break.

Rock Band Weekly: Raconteurs, Alanis Morissette, Electric Six, The Flobots

October 2nd, 2009 at 01:21pm Under Wii / Nintendo

Next week’s Rock Band Weekly wants to take you to a gay bar. A gay bar, gay bar! Yes, Electric Six’s “Gay Bar,” which inspired a rather popular piece of World of Warcraft machinima (found after the break), makes its way onto the update.

Also featured: a three-pack of Raconteurs tracks, along with the most ironic song ever: Alanis Morissette’s … “Ironic.” Isn’t it ironic that the track doesn’t actually feature a single example of irony? Perhaps Morissette meant this to be some sort of “meta” irony (although some may disagree).

Check out the full Rock Band Weekly update, along with the update for Rock Band Unplugged, after the break.

Rock Band Weekly: Alice in Chains, Breaking Benjamin, Just Kait, Kula Shaker

September 25th, 2009 at 01:40pm Under Xbox 360

Alice in Chains and Breaking Benjamin (pictured doing their best Twilight pose) contribute several new tracks to the Rock Band Music Store next week. We … sorry, we’re just getting lost in those eyes and pale skin. It’s mesmerizing.

There are also some additions from English psychedelic band, Kula Shaker, and a value-priced track called “U Suck” by Just Kait — which, knowing how the comments for RBW tend to lean, could very well be how many of you feel about the artist.

Check out the full Rock Band Weekly update, along with the update for Rock Band Unplugged, after the break.

Rock Band Weekly: Tenacious D, Anvil, Dinosaur Jr., The Guess Who

September 11th, 2009 at 11:50am Under Wii / Nintendo

Rock Band Weekly heads up to Canadia next week for a three pack from heavy metal band Anvil. There are also tracks from Brütal Legend “star” Jack Black’s band Tenacious D. It’ll actually be pretty quiet week, as the Wii doesn’t add its usual mega-list of back catalog tracks and is in sync with the Xbox and PS3 versions. Check it all out after the break.

Rock Band Weekly: Talking Heads, The Jam, Oasis, Rage

August 28th, 2009 at 06:20pm Under Wii / Nintendo

Why, hello! Next week’s Rock Band Weekly brings a heaping serving of Talking Heads. No, no, not television talk show guests and nightly news anchors … the band, you know? You … you don’t know? This is awkward. Best educate yourself before we have to silently crack some skulls. The Wii will get another massive injection of tracks from the back catalog, including a whole slew of Judas Priest. Hold up, you don’t know who Judas Priest is? Seriously, why are you even reading this? Go check out all the track coming to the various forms of Rock Band after the break.

Whoops! In case you didn’t notice, we let this week’s Rock Band Weekly slip — there were a few more pressing matters to attend to at the time.
