Rock Band DLC for 5/27: The Cars

by Terrence Stasse { May 21st 2008 at 2:30AM }

The next newly announced piece of DLC for all the rockers out there will be hitting the Rock Band store on the 27th and is going to be the self-titled Cars album. The nine track album should satisfy fans requests and will arrive in exactly a week's time to let the good times roll. The pricing follows Rock Band norms, 160pts each, or 1200 for the whole album. The full track listing can be found after the break.

[Thanks Alan!]

All Mixed Up
Bye Bye Love
Don't Cha Stop
Good Times Roll
I'm in Touch with Your World
Just What I Needed
Moving in Stereo
My Best Friend's Girl
You're All I've Got Tonight

Nothing for me for the umpteenth week in a row.

I think I was spoiled in the first few months after launch or something, because I haven't been excited over an DLC since the Nine Inch Nails pack.

I've bought a few things but have seen zero "I MUST HAVE THAT!"s for quite a while now.

That should be "any DLC" but I'm liking the concept of referring to content as "an DLC."

For example, "I want to download an DLC, but I'm not going near horse armor."

This is almost as excellent as the Boston pack, but I fear that some of the songs here are going to chart synthesizers. Anyone who has played that one Boston track with the organ solo knows what I mean.

I haven't kept up with DLC since the Boston Pack.

Any great songs that I've missed? Any from this pack in particular?

How convenient. Another "full CD" that's only 9 tracks. And why post the Cars Greatest Hits CD cover to tease us, Terrance? There's three songs from this album that I remember, so I might just get those three instead of the entire album.

I thought there were only 3 that I knew also, but there are actually 6, the names didn't click at first.

I "streamed" this album recently to give it a go before the tracks were released. I was very surprised to know about half of the songs. This and the Boston pack will make a great Rock Band party.

Nice, but would have liked to have seen the following too:

Let's Go
Touch and Go
Shake it Up
You Might Think
Drive
Magic
Hello Again
Tonight She Comes

Maybe they're splitting up the actual GH album into two parts?

Does anyone know the business model for how the bands get paid for permission to use their songs in RB? Is it a one-time fee per title? Royalties on each download? Both?

I agree with you. I would have loved to see these songs too. The complete greatest hits was a long CD, but taking a few from the first and a few from here, that would have been a sweet DLC pack.

Alan Perry @ May 21st 2008 10:00AM

I am way psyched about this album being released! I only wish it really was the Cars greatest hits album that's pictured... Oh well, still a great album!

Tony @ May 21st 2008 10:38AM

This is easily their best album and the songs you don't remember on it are all excellent. If you like The Cars at all it's not disappointing.

As for everyone else, sorry lol. There's weeks I don't want anything either. They can't please everyone every week.
