At the Emmy's this past week, the guys from the Flight of the Conchords let slip that they have a few songs coming to Rock Band. Today, Sub Pop Records, the label for Conchords, confirmed to Team Teabag that a few songs are indeed coming to the music game.
Two of the songs will be from the band's self titled debut album and one other song will be from their upcoming album "I Told You I Was Freaky." It's not clear yet which songs they're going to offer up as DLC, but it should be available around the time the new album is released on October 20. The songs are supposed to be out through Rock Band Network, but that's supposed to coming out in November last we checked.
On a related note, I've really wanted to get into Flight of the Conchords but keep pushing it off. What are some good songs/skits I should check out by them?

That said I really don't like Flight of the Conchords but I'll be the last person to ever say Harmonix shouldn't throw in a band.
Good skits or songs? ALL OF THEM. Just search for some live performances on Youtube. For a really really good show, try to find their HBO Special, it has many of their more known songs.
IT'S BUSINESS. IT'S BUSINESS TIME.
Jenny (It isn't on their album so it's a good example of what they do on-stage)
I was fucking upset when they lost at the Emmys. I MEAN COME ON.
Also, Trebz was good to suggest Jenny The best thing is to check out their material from Season 1. It was their best. DOWNLOAD SEASON ONE, HAZMAT.

Take note: This is pretty much a list of their songs. I'm a huge fan of their shit. Just download the first season. You will thank us.
My favorite. BTW, If your into FOTC I made a video game related music vid for it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qomdAXw363M
Bret also has a habit of dancing when angry. Makes for a very 70's esque montage.
it's never looked better on you..
