Rock Band Weekly: Gorillaz, Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, The Who

by Alexander Sliwinski { Aug 7th 2009 at 11:00AM }

Oh my, too many good tracks in next week's Rock Band Weekly to play off of for the basis of this post. Do we ask about breaking off a piece of our heart because of the Janis Joplin track, or do we go ask Alice when she's 10 feet tall? Ask her what? Exactly! A perfect psychedelic question. Now, feed your head by checking out the full list of tracks for all of the various Rock Band games after the break -- oh yeah, there's also the Gorillaz next week.

Gorrilaz ftw! ^^

Marty @ Aug 7th 2009 11:12AM

Yeah, if I played Rock Band, I'd get some Gorillaz for it. Love 'em!

WINterfang @ Aug 7th 2009 11:39AM

Heck yeah! I love Gorillaz!! but I don't see myself playing Guitar Hero or Rock Band.

Mr. Cantu @ Aug 7th 2009 1:07PM

F Yeah! I'm getting the Gorillaz pack!

Ridgecity @ Aug 7th 2009 2:03PM

GET THE COOL SHOE SHINE!

Sly Cooper @ Aug 7th 2009 3:35PM

@RIDGECITY

YES!!!! 19-2000 soulchild remix is so awesome!

Sly Cooper @ Aug 7th 2009 3:35PM

and sorry i typed your name in caps, i just thought it was awesome finding someone who agrees with me, lol.

FOXHOUND @ Aug 8th 2009 9:37AM

FINALLY. XD

Mr.Happy @ Aug 17th 2009 8:42PM

YES. I LOVE RE-HASH.

Ben Forbes @ Aug 7th 2009 11:06AM

And now I don't need to buy Guitar Hero 5.

Woz @ Aug 7th 2009 11:18AM

I just need to get Sympathy for the Devil on RB, then I'll be right with you.

Paul @ Aug 7th 2009 12:41PM

this is exactly what i was thinking. every song on guitar hero 5 that i think would be fun to play, rock band adds as DLC. gotta love competition....

BleachMan! @ Aug 7th 2009 12:56PM

All I need is The Spirit of Radio by Rush, and I can officially no longer consider getting GH5.

kavendano14 @ Aug 7th 2009 1:14PM

all I need is more Radiohead ( props if you get it)

MowDownJoe @ Aug 7th 2009 5:35PM

Because All I Need is a song by Radiohead! I get it!
By that same token, it's never Too Little Too Late for more Barenaked Ladies.

Westifire @ Aug 8th 2009 8:46AM

Exactly what I was thinking...

BeckRokk @ Aug 7th 2009 11:10AM

Awesome. Looks like I'm buying everything this week.

Chimpanzebra @ Aug 7th 2009 11:10AM

Yay for doing the headline the way it should be done!

Martin @ Aug 7th 2009 11:31AM

Agreed! I'm happy to see this as well.

Konrad @ Aug 7th 2009 11:13AM

There is now a resurgence of Rock Band in my household. Hell yes. Magic Bus & Gorillaz. I'm just as pumped as I was when I saw Kings Of Leon in the headline a few weeks back.

smooth @ Aug 7th 2009 11:18AM

Although they could've done with a few more Kings of Leon tracks, wouldn't you say?

JXCgunrunna @ Aug 7th 2009 11:14AM

This is a really good week

embassy @ Aug 7th 2009 5:55PM

I'm just happy my profile pic is featured on joystiq :)

Oh, the music's cool, too.

polledchild @ Aug 7th 2009 11:15AM

White Rabbit for the win!

Judd @ Aug 7th 2009 11:19PM

Yes, it's awesome. But you figure they could've also thrown in their one other big hit, "Somebody to Love."

"Piece of My Heart" should have been released as a three-pack along with "Me and Bobby McGee" and "Mercedes Benz".

Now, The Band. They need like a best-of compilation. Anything less than 6 more songs from them won't be enough.

xGearSecondx @ Aug 9th 2009 3:06AM

I fucking LOVE that song

Neuromancer @ Aug 7th 2009 11:14AM

Will someone throw the radio into the bathtub when we get to the part in White Rabbit where the rabbit bites its own head off? I need rising sound.

Squirtforce @ Aug 7th 2009 11:28AM

SON OF A BITCH! I double posted your comment! FROWNY FACE

oolz @ Aug 7th 2009 11:42AM

If nothing else you can get one of the maids to do it.

That Fuzzy Bastard @ Aug 7th 2009 11:19AM

Finally some Joplin! Now let's get "Down On Me" and "Combination of the Two"!

WINterfang @ Aug 7th 2009 11:38AM

Your avatar rocks.

stinger503 @ Aug 7th 2009 11:22AM

The Band?! MAOR PLZ!!!

Storm Eagle [Resident Capcom Megafan] @ Aug 7th 2009 11:21AM

Yeah, good stuff this week. Gotta get the Janis Joplin song for the wife. And the Gorillaz pack should be nothing short of fun to play.

Jarpo @ Aug 7th 2009 11:28AM

Another fantastic week, thanks HMX! Should be some more news coming later today via the Rock Band 'Zine. Sign up if you haven't already.

Jarpo @ Aug 7th 2009 11:31AM

Looks like I was wrong. The 'Zine was sent out about 20 minutes ago and all it basically says is to pre-order The Beatles: Rock Band to get the first look at all the news on the game. Laaaaaaame (The 'Zine, not the game).

Squirtforce @ Aug 7th 2009 11:27AM

When White Rabbit reaches that beautiful peak I want you to throw that fucking ps3 in the bathtub with me.

Neuromancer @ Aug 7th 2009 11:30AM

haha that's OK man, you put your own twist on it.

Shagittarius @ Aug 7th 2009 12:07PM

Eat some reds and try to calm down. Smoke some grass, shoot some fucking smack! Shit man, do whatever you gotta do.

Squirtforce @ Aug 7th 2009 12:08PM

Stone dead in ten seconds. Shit, they'll want me to explain it!

HappyFunBall @ Aug 7th 2009 11:28AM

No Gorillaz on the Wii? :-(

Apollo @ Aug 7th 2009 11:32AM

Gorillaz will come to the Wii eventually. :)

LaughingTarget @ Aug 7th 2009 11:29AM

"Who?"

"Yes."

"Who are you talking about?"

"The Who."

"Who?"

"Yes."

Greatest band name ever.

MLS @ Aug 7th 2009 11:31AM

I love Gorillaz, but they don't really strike me as a Rock Band kinda band. I mean, most of their songs are made with a lot of production layers, not a live bass-guitar-drum setup. Maybe M1 A1 would work, but nearly everything else uses instruments that Rock Bnad can't emulate/doesn't have.
