Rock Band gets first DLC album, it's Judas Priest!

FINALLY.

Though I will skip this one, you'd better believe I'll be right there when "Who's next" drops.

WHERE IS NIRVANA - NEVERMIND?!?!!?!

THE CARS FUCK YEAH

Excuse my excitement for something that will probably be a while.

Oh hell yeah! I wish there was some Pearl Jam on Rock Band.

This is great. And it might just be Priests greastest album.

I now finally have a compelling reason to buy the Rock Band.

Will this be insanely difficult to play, like all other metal songs in Rock Band?

I'm sorry, but I could care less about all this '80's music.

FYI I don't know if this is across the board, but the 360 rock band bundle pack sells for 120 at walmart near my house. I have seen it at that price for months. They sell out, get more in, and the price does not change so if you are on the fence, 120 should sway you in the right direction.

Really, more bands should exploit this as a chance to promote their own music. Just like iTUNES revolutionised the top 40 chart, this could well be the next step forward for bands wanting to attract more fanbase!

I'm SO glad Harmonix are doing this, (Activision, take note!!). The introduction of album downloads is a sheer brilliance, and can keep a franchise fresh for as long as they continue to support the movement.

Just a shame I'm gonna be holding off on a Rock Band purchase for a while yet ... damn that VAT, eh? :P

Hey, that's me. Thanks for the recog. I'm glad Hmx is finally starting to push albums.

In Kotaku's QA with HMX, they mention it is possible we will see a full artist's catalogue.

Ctrl C'd and Ctrl V'd for your pleasure....

What happened to The Who?
We will have a specific announcement about that coming up soon regarding some work that we have coming down the pike with The Who in general that I think people are gonna be pretty happy about...and in general what you're gonna see sorta deep dives with particular artists, where with some artists...of the appropriate stature, you'll see us doing more than whole albums, potentially even entire catalogs.

Yawn.

Pixies! woo!

wait til they come out with some stuff like red hot chili peppers bloodsugarsexmagik or nirvana or other classics like those. if they come out with something better than judas priest there dlc could break records no doubt.

whooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

A Pixies announcement? X3F, you made my day.

At least three songs on that record are the best song in the world.

OMG THE PIXIES! :D
can't wait to play Debaser,Tame,Gouge Away, Crackity Jones and more! w00t!

Ok, apparently people like The Pixies. Good luck singing it on Expert. So many random scoops and speaking/screaming parts it's going to be impossible. When do we get songs that are actually singable?

Doolittle? DOOLITTLE!? I just wet my pants. Thank You, Harmonix. Thank You.

Judas Priest! I love this album. I am getting it...although I wish it wasn't so expensive. I think $9.99 is a more reasonable price.

bout damn time, this was long overdue and everyone has been waiting for their promised full album dlc since the day the game was released! Kudos for getting it to the masses finally; but they could have picked any number of albums that would be more appealing than Judas Priest... Hippies rock!
