Madden 09 soundtrack headed to Rock Band

by Dustin Burg { Jul 13th 2008 at 4:00PM }

Looking to expand their already rich library, EA just announced some new Rock Band downloadable content that's headed our way as part of a partnership between them and Madden NFL 09. According to the press release, "'Rock Band' will feature music from the 'Madden 09' soundtrack in its weekly downloadable songs update, a handful at a time, over several weeks, with each song carrying the 'Madden' brand." Though, at what price, which tracks from the album and when they'll release are all question marks right now. That said, we do know every track that is on the soundtrack (conveniently listed after the break) and it's also interesting to note that some of the Madden 09 soundtrack songs are already available as Rock Band DLC including The Offspring's "Hammerhead" and Disturbed's "Inside the Fire". Whatever happens, we say keep the DLC coming.

Dear EA, please give us "Devour" by Shinedown... please.

webster1990 @ Jul 13th 2008 4:24PM

Oh God, that soundtrack is awful. Why does EA have to whore out Rock Band like that?

soulpopped @ Jul 13th 2008 5:24PM

agreeeeeeed.

TehAdz @ Jul 13th 2008 5:00PM

Trivium, w00t.

Other than that, where's the rest of the Offspring songs we were supposed to be getting?

Neuromancer @ Jul 13th 2008 5:08PM

Be great if John Madden was a playable Rock Band character...

Some songs would be perfect for RB; others would just be plain weird to play.

Psycho300x @ Jul 13th 2008 5:15PM

DO NOT WANT!!!!!

psyborg @ Jul 13th 2008 5:17PM

Holy shit, Mindless Self Indulgence in RockBand?!

I'm sold.

Dark Caboose @ Jul 13th 2008 6:07PM

i know that would be awesome. Never Wanted to Dance would be a good one because people who dont like MSI still like it.

NeoK-182 @ Jul 13th 2008 5:50PM

why are you guys complaining? if you don't want it don't download it. theres lots of other songs that you can get.

From that list i see a few i'd want. Airbourne, Shinedown, Rev Theory. fun stuff.

I'm lost though...Tyga is a rapper. Oh well some of this is actually interesting because it's different. We shall see how some of these songs (diamond life lol) play.

MADDEN 09/RB HAS IN FLAMES?!?! EA just got some cool points. good song that they picked too.

Mr Zero @ Jul 14th 2008 4:16AM

An alright list, but how are they gonna incorporate rap songs? Either the vocals on screen are gonna have to be slowed down...

We Made It, ain't that bad...it's got a backing beat similar to Papercut, so drums and guitar should be easy for that song...

As for the others, Senses Fail, MSI & The Offspring spark my interest...I will preview before I buy though..
