All Articles: Rock Band 4

Harmonix is taking a trip to the 2000s with this week’s Rock Band 4 DLC Update. A trio of hard rock songs from the first half of the decade are now available to download through the Rock Band Music Store including “Like A Stone,” which appeared on Audioslave’s debut album; “Awake,” the title track from Godsmack’s second album; and “Lying From You,” a song from Linkin Park’s album Meteora.

All three songs can be previewed in the trailer embedded above, and they can be purchased for $1.99 apiece.

Harmonix has taken the stage to announce this week’s DLC Update for Rock Band 4, and its another trio of songs that should be familiar to fans of classic rock.

The highlight of this week’s update is clearly Iggy Pop’s “Lust For Life.” The song, which was co-written by David Bowie, pushed Iggy into the spotlight for the first time. Also available this week is “Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress)” from The Hollies and “Bad Case Of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)” from Robert Palmer. As always, each song can be purchased for $1.99 apiece.

Harmonix also announced that a new version update for Rock Band 4 will be available today that will “introduce some new features, broaden legacy instrument support, and address various other issues.” The full list of new features and bug fixes can be found at the developer’s official website.

Harmonix has served up a new trailer featuring this week’s additions to the Rock Band Music Store, which are now available to download for Rock Band 4. Let’s head back to the 1980s with today’s trio of new songs:

• Depeche Mode – “People Are People”
• INXS – “What You Need”
• Naked Eyes – “Always Something There To Remind Me”

As usual, each track can be purchased for $1.99 apiece.

Harmonix is back with another batch of downloadable content for Rock Band 4… and this time its a six-pack of songs from Aerosmith.

The Aerosmith Hits Pack 02, which spans Aerosmith’s career from Get Your Wings to Pump to Get A Grip, is now available to download on the PS4 and Xbox One. Its six songs include “Cryin’,” “Dude (Looks Like A Lady),” “Eat The Rich,” “Love In An Elevator, ” “Seasons of Wither,” and “Rats In the Cellar.” Downloading the full pack will set you back $9.99, which individual songs can be obtained for $1.99 apiece.

While Harmonix has yet to make an official announcement, I think it’s safe to say that weekly Rock Band updates are back.

With Rock Band 4 now available in stores, Harmonix is pumping up the volume on a new set of downloadable content for the music franchise.

Beginning tomorrow, October 13, new songs from Alabama Shakes (“Don’t Wanna Fight”), Breaking Benjamin (“Failure”), Death From Above 1979 (“Trainwreck 1979”), and The Pretty Reckless (“Follow Me Down”) will be available to download through the PlayStation Store and the Xbox Marketplace for $1.99 apiece. Short snippets from each song can be previewed in the trailer embedded above.

Mad Catz also wants the world to know that pre-orders for the Rock Band 4 Pro-Cymbals Expansion Kit are now open. Expected to be available before the end of the year, the Pro-Cymbals Expansion Kit will add Crash, Ride, and Hi-Hat cymbals to the Wireless Drum Kit. After attaching the Pro-Cymbals Expansion Kit, players will be able to unlock Pro Mode in the game, which will enhance Rock Band 4’s “realism” and allow players to showcase their “unique flair.”

Following Activision’s lead, Harmonix has also added the complete Rock Band 4 tracklist to Spotify for your listening pleasure.
