Rock Band Network live on Xbox 360, 105 songs available

The Rock Band Network has gone live on Xbox 360 with a catalog of 105 songs. With over 4,000 registered authors and peer reviewers participating in the program, we're guessing a lot more tracks are in the pipe; and Harmonix and MTV Games have teased that tracks from from Flight of the Conchords, The Smashing Pumpkins, Twin Atlantic, All That Remains, Clutch, Prong, The Gaslight Anthem and hundreds of other artists are on the way. Song prices currently range from 80

to 160

($1 and $2)*.

A nice new feature of the Rock Band Music Store offshoot is that players will be able to download RBN samples to demo tracks before they buy. Songs will debut exclusively on Xbox 360 for 30 days, after which "a selection of standout tracks" will become available on PS3 and Wii.

*Artists who submit songs receive a 30-percent royalty of the RBN retail price (excluding tax) for every track purchased.

Update: List of RBN launch tracks after the break.

Excited to see Flogging Molly and KMFDM in here. Hope this takes off!

If you're into RB, this is pretty exciting.

'Even Rats' makes this an instant win.

Just played the two stroke 9 songs - those will be party favorites for sure.

Just don't expect to get your bloody black backpack bbbaaaaacccckkkk.

Whew, when I read the headline I was really worried that I was going to go broke buying all of these songs when I get home. Mercifully there was only one on here out of 105 that I (kinda) like. Thanks Harmonix! You saved me a ton of money today!

I hope the KMFDM and Flogging Molly get to the PS3 version.

Regardless of how much anyone likes KMFDM, pretty much everyone should be subject to Juke-Joint Jezebel and ADAW before they die.

Everyone's heard Juke though, it was in the Mortal Kombat movie.

Don't know how I'm going to score well while LMFAO!!!

^ comment @SanderCohen re: Jonathan Coulton

w00t Skindred

I believe the bands set the price for each song, starting at 80 MS points.

What, no "Deadly Sinners"? That would be instant purchase, 3 Inches of Blood.

There needs to be 100% parity between the RBN Store on XBL and PSN or Harmonix is just screwing over its fans.

Or Sony is just screwing over PS3 owners...

ahh Ron Wasserman, the guy who did the legendary Mighty Morphin Power Rangers theme.
The song itself has that nostalgic feel to it.

Not available in Canada :(

When I said "Old" People, means old way of thinking about what's the music means for them. Actually, big names existing in the industry that aren't just pop... I'll give you examples... You "OLD"... like the music that RB and GH gave you. But on my side, I think about relatively or next "BIG" names that aren't necessary rock but various kinds. Look what i'm talking of... where are... Story of the year , Atreyu , Anberlin , Alexisonfire , Brand New , Funeral for a friend , I am Ghost , and where is Rammstein, and Coldplay , Linkin Park (there are but not many, right), Shiny Toy Guns, A static Lullaby, Emery, Innerpartysystem, Limp bizkit (yes this is old), Papa Roach, Thursday. Where are the newest songs from big ones like Muse, 30 seconds to mars.... Anyway, I think you understand what I mean.

Other than Muse, your taste is entirely terrible and belongs nowhere near my videogame.

I don't even care if it's tangential and I have to only scroll through Atreyu, that will be the most painful tapping or holding down I'll ever do in my life.

I would love to see Story of the Year, Anberlin, more Papa Roach and more Limp Bizkit on rock band. Sonos and Octillus, just because some one doesn't like the same music as you doesn't mean you have to be douches.

Emery has "The Butcher's Mouth" coming out soon FYI

I only recognize a few names, but, "Australia" by The Shins? Dang, I wish I had an Xbox 360. I hope that makes it to PS3.

The Hold Steady better make it over to PSN. Easily one of my favorite bands, and that single is one of their best songs.

Not even close.

Longwave - No Direction!!!!
yessssssss!

I hope 360 owners pass the Senses Fail and Flogging Molly songs along to the PS3.

Ultra Saturday drummer here...

Thanks for the article, It's pretty cool seeing your own band plastered across the web.

And please people buy our songs, I like cheeseburgers :P

really? i can't wait to get home to download your songs. i support the artists

Thanks support dude!

Thanks for the support!

Yeah, We handled it all ourselves ... We all knew how the songs were played obviously so I just taught the other guys how to author songs and we went from there.We plan on doing our entire album eventually, We've got two approved so far and 2 more in progress. We are basically recording the album ... authoring the songs and then recording more ... It's a cool process.

'Superhero!' took about 2 months ... 'Not My Fault' Took around 2 or 3 weeks to author.

You can check out our gameplay videos on Youtube by searching for Ultra Saturday or by going to my channel wesjett2008.

Dear Lord, please let Clutch make the cut and be available on PS3.

I was pretty happy that In This Moment got in there. i hope we can get some more from them. Beautiful Tradgedy would be nice

more KMFDM plz

Might also be worth mentioning Third Eye Blind has a few songs up for Peer Review on RBN, so those will be up soon. The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are Semi Charmed Life and Jumper, but there are definitely more.

Band I've never heard of, Band i've never heard of... HOLY SHIT KMFDM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My reaction exactly. I came buckets.

To anyone outside of the U.S, here is how you can get RBN tracks.
1.Make/Have a U.S account (doesn't have to be Xbox Live Gold)
2.Download the trial versions for any songs that you want on the U.S account.
3.Sign into your main account that you have your MS points on.
4.Start the trial version of the song and once it begins press start and hit Buy Song.

Hope this helps anybody that was hyped for RBN only to be slapped in the face by licensing and other B.S.

Need to try this when I get home from work.

I owe you a big thanks.

THANKS

Ok, that didn't work. :(

I'm not the biggest fan of the RBN, but I admit I'm getting a big chubby at the thought of singing Even Rats.

Seriously, who the hell cares about all those songs. If you've played one, haven't you played them all?

I'd prefer PC instead of XBox :) Buy ambien
