Video: Beatles: Rock Band's 'Sgt. Pepper's' DLC

by David Hinkle { Nov 16th 2009 at 6:05PM }

The Beatles: Rock Band will get a hot DLC injection tomorrow when Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band releases as downloadable content. In preparation for the arrival of these new tracks, MTV has passed along the above trailer which offers a brief sample of new tracks in the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club album mixed together with some found on the disc. In the end, the video saves us all precious time we would've had to use sampling tracks on YouTube and, inevitably, watching Pomplamoose videos.

The wii version will be crippled somehow ofc :(

How so?

We were disadvantaged last time because they put the tracks together for Abbey Road and we were SOL in getting the medley.

This time around, they're all separate tracks so we're good to go! :)

Peter Moore @ Nov 16th 2009 6:34PM

We're halfway through November.

You're pretty slow...

NightHawk @ Nov 16th 2009 6:41PM

time is going by so quick these days since i started college

catfish24 @ Nov 16th 2009 7:02PM

Same here lol

In The Times prominent critic Kenneth Tynan described Sgt. Pepper as "a decisive moment in the history of Western civilization"

TheSniperZERO @ Nov 16th 2009 9:15PM

It's a shame that the DLC, which is more expensive than the actually Beatles CDs, don't come with additional Achievements for the 360. Also wondering when the DLC will be available for The White Album and Revolver.

bongoes Sector 2814 @ Nov 16th 2009 9:13PM

Sadly those two haven't been announced.

Mr. Bungo @ Nov 16th 2009 10:13PM

Harmonix has stated that any further Beatles DLC will depend entirely on how well the first 3 albums' DLC sells. Apparently, it costs a whole lot more to make DLC for this game (restoring and separating the audio tracks, multiple vocal tracks, making the dreamscape animations, and probably paying Apple Corps a fat cut) than for a standard Rock Band track.

I'm damn curious to know how well Abbey Road sold...

Damn you Harmonix wait until next week! I already has my moneys for AC2, I cant make love to two things at once!

Zamn10210 @ Nov 16th 2009 7:21PM

You can't? I guess that's just me then.

bongoes Sector 2814 @ Nov 16th 2009 9:16PM

I'm very happy.

ray42 @ Nov 16th 2009 9:31PM

Man, I get chills from hearing the sheer epic-ness of "A Day In The Life". Such a great song.

Toop @ Nov 17th 2009 9:34AM

This is probably my most anticipated song of the DLC, it is going to be terrific.

Apollo @ Nov 16th 2009 10:37PM

I personally can't wait for the trippy dreamscape that will go along with "Within you, Without you"

Sy_Snootles_is_HOT @ Nov 17th 2009 12:20AM

I added some extra Wii Points to my account today just to save me those precious seconds tomorrow.

arcter @ Nov 17th 2009 6:58AM

Am I missing something or did more than half of that trailer show songs already on the disc? Why show these?

handrt @ Nov 17th 2009 1:25PM

Probably extra advertisement power for those who don't have the game.

Toop @ Nov 17th 2009 9:33AM

They are from the disc, it says so right underneath each song. They are just demonstrating that between the disc and DLC you will have the entire album in the game.

MinimumWageNinja @ Nov 17th 2009 10:37AM

Bought it the moment upon release. Yes, I love the Beatles.

Thanir @ Nov 17th 2009 6:47PM

Can't wait to get my Beatles game back from my friend so I can buy this. Oh and thanks for introducing me to Pomplamoose.
