Nice!

I was just listening to DFA1979 and this game desperately needs a song or two of theirs. Romantic Rights would be awesome.

Ugh... I don't know why I get my hopes up every week, thinking that, even though I have been disappointed for the past few months with nothing REALLY good, Harmonix will give me something good THIS week.

I set myself up every time... But maybe NEXT week will there will be something I'll be willing to pay for and download.

Hey, they need to throw us old guys a bone once in a while, ya know.

Ahhh the 80s, what a great decade to grow up in! See how much fun they're having in the video? Artists take themselves way too serious now.

coulda gotten better Devo... It's the same with NIN they always choose subpar tracks. But those Duran Duran tracks are spot on

They will always save the non subpar tracks for the yearly game releases. Why waste all of their good tracks for DLC when they can use those tracks to help sell the new games.

Hey, a quick question to everyone.
Rock Band DLC music: does it permanently stay up and available to purchase in the Marketplace? I ask because I own Rock Band but I've never once bought a song. Is it too late for me to download stuff retroactively if I wanted to?

As far as I know, all of the songs are posted there and none have ever been removed. I suppose there's always a chance though.

Regarding this week's DLC, I am very happy with the selection! I might have picked some different ones, like "Whip It!" by Devo, and "Save A Prayer" by Duran Duran, but the tracks they picked are all good ones too!

Why no new duran duran stuff? Red Carpet Massacre was good, had lots of guitar and drums in it.

Still, Girls on Film! PLEASE include the vid ;)

Rock Band needs to stop with all the old bands I think most gamers in their thirties have plenty of bands for them.There's hardly anything for me there's only 30 seconds from mars,all american rejects,A7X,paramore,
Disturbed.Just 5 WTF.They need to look at Fuse TV and music sites like lastfm.com and something called myspace to see what bands most people like.

Maybe the new bands are not into having them played on a video game? Or perhaps there are record company ppl who think the y can make money off the nostalgia factor with ppl who would buy the music. In my 20s video games were fun but not played as much as I do now in my later 30s. I was single had things to do ppl to see girls to be chased. Money was tight and I would rather used money for the single life actvities than sitting at home playing games. Now I have my wife my children and a reasonable source of income. Yeah we go out but weekends only for the most part and its worth my money to have some in house entertainement especially something we all do together like rockband.

I gotta laugh at the "Subpar NIN tracks" part.

March of the Pigs? BURN?! Subpar? GTFO

They might as well add "I Ran" Flock of Seagulls, Dead or Alive - "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", B52- "Rock Lobster", Duran Duran "Hungry Like the Wolf"

I'm fired up for Duran Duran. Three weeks of solid DLC in a row (SOAD, DT, and DD). See my detailed thoughts: My Gadget, Game & Gizmo Obsession

Devo is my favorite band in the entire history of music, but honestly, they could have chosen way better tracks. Those are some of my least favorite. Where's the stuff from Q/A ?
