OXM reveals Rock Band's March DLC lineup

by Dustin Burg { Jan 31st 2008 at 9:30AM }

The ScoreHero forums are abuzz this morning with the revealing of March's Rock Band downloadable content in March's issue of OXM. The list of DLC looks to be quite official, outlining all four weeks of DLC and mentioning whether or not they'll be packed together. And you'll be happy to know that March will not let us down. Rock Band will be getting a Nine Inch Nails track pack featuring the master of "The Perfect Drug" (we just had to embed the music video above), some "Shooting Star" by Bad Company, "Message in a Bottle" by Police, "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd and "Fuel" by Metallica. March will be sounding great! Take a looksy at the complete list of Rock Band's March DLC after the break and gush over the musical goodness. Now, all we need is February's list of DLC and we'd be prepared to rock out for the next few months.

Waiting for that last pack is going to be pretty tough.

CJ @ Jan 31st 2008 9:40AM

eh nothin for me in here... pity because ive been very happy with their dlc as of late. harmonix should really consider dlc from their bonus track bands like honest bob or freezepop

Jon @ Jan 31st 2008 10:01AM

I believe the latest issue of oxm had a disc with exclusive songs for Rock Band including Freezepop's Sprode.

GazzaScotland @ Jan 31st 2008 9:51AM

Simple Man! Hell Yeah! =]

Shame we don't get Rock Band till March 8th lol.

IceOrb @ Jan 31st 2008 9:53AM

It would be kinda neat if they offered up some purely instrumental tracks.

Josh @ Jan 31st 2008 10:45AM

if this was guitar hero, sure. but these songs need to be played with two guitars, drums, and vocals

Kev @ Jan 31st 2008 2:37PM

@Josh

More cowbell!

:)

tim @ Jan 31st 2008 9:55AM

i think my drumset will be broken after attempting that drum solo in 'the perfect drug.'

Mark @ Jan 31st 2008 10:01AM

I thought they were saving drum solo songs for "Rock Band 2" where they would add drum solos in like guitar solos. Just my own little theory, but I guess not.

Hey Apples @ Jan 31st 2008 9:54AM

Wouldn't it be "Metal" pack and not "Medal" pack?

ZEBRA NINER @ Jan 31st 2008 10:19AM

Well... maybe all of those songs were awarded some kind of MEDAL. HAHA! It's all good.

There are some good ones in there. The more the better! Once all these bands that are still holding out see that they can make some cash and get there music back into people's minds, we can get some more stuff.

DeadPlasmaCell @ Jan 31st 2008 9:59AM

looks good.. Fuel should be fun

Brian @ Jan 31st 2008 3:02PM

Anyone have the list for Feb. DLC?

lalex @ Jan 31st 2008 10:33AM

YES!!! MARCH OF THE FUCKING PIGS IS COMING TO ROCKBAND!! ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SONGS BY TRENT REZNOR AND NINE INCH NAILS!!! I KEPT ON SAYING WHAT A GREAT SONG THIS WOULD BE TO HAVE IN ROCK BAND!! YES!!!

dunnypop @ Jan 31st 2008 10:42AM

I remember that back in the day Trent said March of the Pigs are nearly impossible to play in real life and to find a drummer to actually perform it was a real task in itself.

I expect to see a lot more broken pedals.

therpham @ Jan 31st 2008 10:29AM

I'm surprised - there's actually not really anything there in which I'm interested.

Which I guess is a good thing, considering I've almost spent all my MS points on Rock Band songs already.

dunnypop @ Jan 31st 2008 10:31AM

wow the Haunted and At the Gates. wow!
Prepare to hear some stories of people being evicted because of the screaming. LOL
seriously... I'm impressed they'd have both bands.

wow more NIN! awesome.

Syko360 @ Jan 31st 2008 10:31AM

March of the Pigs FTGDMFW! Simple man is great too.

murph @ Jan 31st 2008 10:36AM

not that impressed. a couple of good ones in there, but i will be passing on most of these. as much as i love loud, kick-ass metal, i'd actually prefer some more "popular" songs. we've played all the good songs at my skihouse, and they are starting to get repetitive.
