This Week's Rock Band DLC - KISS, Faith No More and the B-52's Written Monday, February 04, 2008 by Alan Pettit Here is what you can find on the marketplace for Rock Band this week, all for 160 MSP ($2.00) as usual.
Well, that's a load of crap. Seriously, you think anyone wants to play a B-52's song? It's not even "Love Shack" for pete's sake. Maybe next week... | |

 | Comment #1 by soxbrooker Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 04:53:04 PM how about we get this game in the UK? |
 | Comment #2 by Khaos86 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 04:53:18 PM Nice...although could do without the B-52's... |
 | Comment #3 by Killer66250 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:08:09 PM Agreed with Soxbrooker |
 | Comment #4 by Atomic Peenut Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:14:03 PM i want rock band sometimes i hate living in england =[ |
 | Comment #5 by KWEY516 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:19:51 PM fnm is awesome ill download we care alot when i get some points |
 | Comment #6 by an1m051ty Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:22:59 PM I agree Love shack would be better but it might be still fun to play - I'll wait till someone posts a note chart. |
 | Comment #7 by oldirtysatan Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:31:11 PM I'm glad to see Faith No More getting some love. |
 | Comment #8 by SegaSaturnSNK Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:41:10 PM Kiss, NICE! Most likely d/l that one. |
 | Comment #9 by Greg0fTheDead Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:41:20 PM I'm not familiar with any of these, but ill preview em on iTunes later to see if ill go with a random purchase. I did that last week with Rush's "working man" and I freakin loved that song. |
 | Comment #10 by dtslayer Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:42:55 PM Dr. Love by Kiss sounds great! Get to hear Gene singing at least but I think Deuce would have been a better choice, oh well maybe someday. Keep up the great work Harmonix! |
 | Comment #11 by megamoviejohn Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:50:35 PM wow this blows, they could have at least did love shack instead. I might buy we care a lot, it sounded decent from itunes sample. |
 | Comment #12 by vgcollateral Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:53:30 PM UK release would be nice |
 | Comment #13 by RiteNowRiteNow Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 05:59:14 PM Duuuuuuuuuuude... That B-52s tune might be my saving grace when it comes to getting the wifey to play. Love Shack wouldve been better though... FNM = no brainer. That'll get downloaded immediately. |
 | Comment #14 by StarCrossedLover Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 06:02:11 PM What? Screw Roam.. I want some Rock Lobster! |
 | Comment #15 by marcodecca Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 06:13:46 PM B-52's???? Come on... Are you serious. its not even the ONE good song that tey have... Oh well, not buying that one. |
 | Comment #16 by CptButtonMasher Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 06:25:29 PM eh, dr. love is a bit cheesy for such a cool game as rock band... |
 | Comment #17 by DanFlyhight Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 06:31:39 PM LOVE SHACK is a little ol' place where we can get together! But I digress...not good songs this week. |
 | Comment #18 by killthemall4444 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 06:58:36 PM Ugh more horrible DLC. Is it March yet? I want my NIN pack. |
 | Comment #19 by SithAboveAll Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:02:34 PM the DLC for this game has been very disappointing. |
 | Comment #20 by redtokyoboxers Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:06:02 PM Roam is one of their biggest, but I do want Rock Lobster. That one would be fun just to see people complaining about how long it is. |
 | Comment #21 by Dermatophyte Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:07:02 PM Faith No More's- we care alot is a awesome song! Gonna pick that up. Why the B'52's? That song is for old women or gays, neither which play rock band. Hell at least they are releasing songs every week, unlike GHIII. |
 | Comment #22 by Grimgravy57 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:12:33 PM PRIMUS |
 | Comment #23 by prowlerdante Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:24:09 PM When I saw B-52's I immediately hoped for Rock Lobster. Oh well, the other two songs are good. |
 | Comment #24 by Anthony11085 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:26:55 PM I wish GH3 would get new songs regularly. |
 | Comment #25 by ngtmrcld Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 07:55:19 PM It's been officially announced by EA that rock band will not be coming to the UK until 2009. Best thing would be to import the game, but then you won't have access to download the extra songs. |
 | Comment #26 by Meestermole Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 08:20:37 PM Faith No More is one of my favorite bands, but they have so many more cool "hit" songs, and of course we get "Epic" & "We Care A Lot" - don't get me wrong - they're good songs, but "Last cup of Sorrow", "Digging the Grave" or "Caffiene", "Land Of Sunshine" - even "Midlife Crisis" would be better songs to introduce FNM to people who haven't heard them before. The band was a LOT more solid from Angel Dust onward. Oh well. I'm sure it all has to do with securing licenses for the songs, and ultimately $$$$$$ - that's why we get more KISS. There's a NIN pack coming? Hopefully it'll be decent. Whatever happened to the full album DLC i heard about a while ago? |
 | Comment #27 by v_thorne Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 08:25:00 PM More Pumpkins! More NIN! Hole! More I say =( not this crap. I hate Kiss. FNM is ok tho, but I still wouldn't DL it. |
| Comment #28 by ngtmrcld Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 08:28:19 PM What we need is some AC/DC. Chances of that happening are very small. There is actually a NIN trio pack being released in March. |
 | Comment #29 by StrappingYoungLaD Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 08:47:15 PM Ill ge the Kiss song but thats about it...I want some damn Pantera and Tool |
| Comment #30 by Greg0fTheDead Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 08:54:16 PM Yeah I heard the NIN pack drops in March with March of the Pigs, The Perfect Drug, and another song (the collector? I think). That is easily going to be the greatest DLC in my eyes. Cant freakin wait. |
 | Comment #31 by INSANEKID13 Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 09:05:08 PM FNM - glad to see they are finaly doing something B-52's - could do without KISS - they are good but they have better song they could have released |
| Comment #32 by Patrick Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 09:25:40 PM man when is rock band gonna get any cool songs to play? they really need to get on the ball with these downloads. hows about some psychobilly and more punk rock that's NOT the clash? the DLC so far sucks! start getting it right fellas! leave it to mtv to put out the gayest stuff, how long do i have to wait for good DLC? |
 | Comment #33 by Adram Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 09:43:25 PM "We Care A Lot" is a great FNM song and that Kiss track is totally unexpected but very welcome. Seriously fun tune, considering we could've ended up with any of a cavalcade of overplayed hits. What's next, "Christine Sixteen"? As usual, there's an odd man out this week - pretty bizarre choice in "Roam". |
 | Comment #34 by Vanuslux Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 10:19:07 PM Personally, I think I would have had to hurt them if they'd chosen "Love Shack" instead of "Roam". I'm not a huge fan of either song, but I can tolerate "Roam" and it will make my wife happy. "Love Shack" induces in me a desire to run people over in my car. |
| Comment #35 by Augustus Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 10:36:23 PM Talk about dropping the ball. |
 | Comment #36 by Happy Ronin NZ Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 10:49:38 PM How about we get this game in New Zealand? |
 | Comment #37 by shadow sniper Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 10:55:38 PM there's probably a good reason 4 this but rock band (more then GH3)needs to get some Led Zeppelin. I mean who doesnt want to get the led out |
| Comment #38 by ngtmrcld Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 11:13:34 PM I wish that they would come out with some songs from dragonforce. that would be amazing to play as 4 people. As for a post of mine from earlier. EA announced that rock band will be released in the UK in 2009. |
 | Comment #39 by Tussell Monday, February 04, 2008 @ 11:47:29 PM I could have named songs that are ten times better than these, by all three bands. >_ |
 | Comment #40 by Knucinos Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 12:17:12 AM Why all the hate? Roam's probably my favorite song of theirs, and Calling Dr. Love's a classic. |
 | Comment #41 by CriscoDisco878 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 02:20:38 AM i just want journey is that too much to ask |
| Comment #42 by Jackel2556 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 04:06:34 AM You guys can't hate living in england, you have better food and candy and Mcvities chocolate biscuits, that stuff is sooooo good and Curly wurly's |
| Comment #43 by JimmyC8277 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 04:20:55 AM not a big fan of any of them |
 | Comment #44 by SteakSalad Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 04:34:25 AM I wouldn't exactly call that "crap." The Faith No More song is pretty good I think. |
 | Comment #45 by Dla911 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 05:20:49 AM what crappy songs, worst week of all i find |
| Comment #46 by MWKoRn Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 05:43:46 AM Hell yeah to FNM. I'm soo glad they're finally getting more stuff by them up. I would love to see "Suprise! Your dead!", "Caffeine", "Naked in front of the computer", or "Got that feeling" show up one day though. p.s.- if anything by the b-52's, why not rock lobster!! |
 | Comment #47 by Archonfury Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 06:18:46 AM still waiting for decent gh3 downloadables, you hear that neversoft? |
 | Comment #48 by Hayden Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 11:34:30 AM @ NGTMRCLD i live in the uk and have imported rockband and i can download extra songs. Want some more Metallica, linkin Park, Korn, Slayer and i would love to try drumming to through the fire and the flames by dragonforce |
 | Comment #49 by KtuluMJB Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 01:39:26 PM Not looking like the best week they've had so far... I can think of better songs for all three artists that would be better suited for Rock Band... |
 | Comment #50 by Catto 21 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 02:39:09 PM I am all about some more Aerosmith, or Velvet Revolver, hell even in new times Three Days Grace would be fun. No more Metallica, those songs are freakin crazyyyyy on Expert |
| Comment #51 by Anthony11085 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 03:28:05 PM I just recieved my Xbox Live magaizine and they annouced a bunch of songs for download in March. Two bigs ones being Metallica - Feul and Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man. There is also going to be a 3 song pack by Nine Inch Nails, the Police, forogt the song but it's the one from GH2. |
 | Comment #52 by RogueVasion Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 08:22:45 PM I love the songs they have coming in march, but I think, in my opinion, need more songs!!! I have a huge list of songs I would love for them to pursue, but I'm still happy that they put "All the Small Things", lol! |
 | Comment #53 by Deleted FetusXx Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 09:40:31 PM I have bought both The Kiss Song and We Care A Lot. And honestly the only one worth getting is We Care a lot. |
 | Comment #54 by JimboDangerous Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 10:45:30 PM not disbelieving anyone here, but is there a link to the EA announcement about rock band coming here in 2009? if thats the case im gonna have to import this, but then i need a NTSC Xbox :@ |
 | Comment #55 by monster28 Tuesday, February 05, 2008 @ 11:59:25 PM What happened to the "whole album" concept they were pushing before the release?? BTW B-52's suck...there I said it too. |
 | Comment #56 by nightmare975 Wednesday, February 06, 2008 @ 12:04:28 AM another one I'm not getting. |
| Comment #57 by Greg0fTheDead Wednesday, February 06, 2008 @ 12:49:02 AM i bought them all because im addicted like a crack fiend to rock band |
 | Comment #58 by Hotoke Wednesday, February 06, 2008 @ 01:36:37 AM How the hell people complain about a DLC with KISS and Faith No More just because it has B-52's? Whatever, don't buy it or don't play it, at least you only pay 2 DOLLARS instead of about 10. (that's how much we'd pay here in Brazil) |
 | Comment #59 by Feel My Rage Wednesday, February 06, 2008 @ 11:41:06 AM Hmm.....I'll just be gettin the FNM song i think......I don't like kiss,and I've never heard of the B-52's,so no point in getting either of those.... And yes.I said I DO NOT LIKE KISS.Only osng of theirs I know Is Rock N Roll All Nite.Hate that song too. |
| Comment #60 by Anthony11085 Wednesday, February 06, 2008 @ 03:14:00 PM Does no one care about Feul or Simple Man? |
