by Ross Miller on Dec 19th 2008 5:57PM

Not smitten with Harmonix's Rockin' the Holday 2008 pack? Next week, the Rock Band store is also blessing you with yet another recommended dose of Footos, the Fresh Fighter.

Foo Fighters Three Pack (440

/ $5.49)

"DOA" (160 / $2)
"Times Like These" (160 / $2)
"This Is A Call" (160 / $2)

And in case you forgot ...

Rockin' the Holidays 2008 pack (240

/ $3)

"Hanukkah Blessings" - Barenaked Ladies (80 / $1)
"Christmas is the Time To Say I Love You" - Billy Squier (80 / $1)
"Blue Christmas" - The Pretenders (80 / $1)

Videos for the Foo Fighters songs can be found after the break. The tracks will be available for download next Tuesday on Xbox 360 and PS3.
[Thanks, Scott]

Stop it already and get some Cult and Smiths in the mix!

This is a call is a must buy. Not so much the other two Foo...

WUUT?!?! DOA! TIMES LIKE THESE!! how are all three of those not must buy?!

"DOA" drums are going to be another "Everlong"...

I'd really like to see that Stevie Ray Vaughan album come out before the end of the year...

I will definitely get the Foo Fighters pack. Although I'd rather have the acoustic version of Times Like These. It wouldn't leave much for the rest of the band though.

"This Is A Call"

Finally they add one of the few good Foo Fighter tracks.

Harmonix just keeps delivering. I love it.

So DOA will be the third song associated with the term Dead on Arrival in Rock Band.

DOA, for the most part, stands for dead or alive.

And dead on arrival isn't named DOA.

So technically there are two songs that are actually named DOA.

Well according to Wikipedia (yeah I know its not that reliable) all three songs are either word for word or initials for Dead on Arrival.

where the hell is the classic rock?

I'm dissapointed they didn't put in "The Pretender", but I'll still get all three since I don't quite have the money to spend on TCatS.

I'm guessing that was intentional. There was a Foo pack for GHIII that included Pretender and This is a Call. There's already enough back and forth about RB/GH using songs from one another...so it's probably a good idea to offer alternatives to what might already be out there.

This is great. I'm so pumped.

Times like these is one of my favorite songs by them...

the NON acoustic version is a huge benefit, IMO.

DOA is great, and this is a call should be pretty fun.

IS SOMEONE GETTING THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST OF YOU!

I find it amazing that consumers are willing to pay $2 for one add on song for these games. That's double what I-Tunes gets for a song. I really hope the artists are getting a large chunk of this money since the record companies raped them for so many years.

I find it amazing that people continue to bitch about spending $2 for a song you can play with 4 instruments in a video game with your friends as though the $1 version on iTunes is the exact same thing.

Oops, not very clear in my statement. I'm not complaining about the $2 charge - I'm just hoping that the artists see the majority of it.

From what they've said before, its split up like this:

25% to HMX
25% to MS/Sony
25% to Label
25% to Artist

I do believe. Thats been posted about a bit, I think confirmed by a HMX member.

So do I make out a cheque for $1.50 to Dave Grohl?

awesome big me reference.

Great selection again HMX, but where is my Mana' DLC.
