Next week is a big one for downloadable Rock Band and Rock Band 2 tracks. On tap: The Ramones (who are the greatest rock band ever), some live Paul McCartney, a Blink 182 three-fer, and even a couple tunes from underrated 1980s rockers The Psychedelic Furs.
Here's the full list:
- Paul McCartney – “Band on the Run (Live)”
- Paul McCartney – “Jet (Live)”
- Paul McCartney – “Sing the Changes (Live)”
- Blink-182 – “Adam’s Song”
- Blink-182 – “First Date”
- Blink-182 – “I Miss You”
- The Psychedelic Furs – “Love My Way”
- The Psychedelic Furs – “Sister Europe”
- The Ramones – “Rock ‘n’ Roll High School”
You'll be able to download these songs for the 360 and Wii on Tuesday, and for the the PS3 on Thursday. The usual 2 bucks per track price applies, but the McCartney and Blink packs, purchased whole, will only cost $5.49.
The inclusion of The Psychedelic Furs is indicative of what I like about Rock Band's downloads. They're hardly a chart-topping group these days, but if you're a fan, you can still pick them up. Thumbs up for DLC! Any obscure (or semi-obscure) band you'd like to see in Rock Band?

C'mon Ramones is my favorite band and yet they get no love from rock band this saddens me.

Those tracks by the Furs are all about the vocals. Sister Europe is a new wave ballad if I ever heard one.

While I dont really care for some of these I really like the variety that Harmonix keeps bringing to RB.

This just made my day. I've been hoping for Adam's Song. Love the use of cymbals, plus its just an overall awesome song. More Blink is never a bad thing.

I'd like to see full albums from Blink, and maybe the first 2 albums from TBS.

I like that the people at Harmonix pull music from different areas too. I just wish they would open their eyes to other types of music, like Jazz or Fusion. There are tons of great jazz-fusion songs that would be great fun to play. It would also set them apart from GH,...some what.
See GH at least has Jeff Beck's Scatterbrain, a great Fusion tune. Now if RB had Jeff Beck, The Dregs, Frank Gambale, etc we could really melt some plastic guitars.
How about some more blues and Soul/RnB tunes?

I wonder why there is no TMBG....
