Guitar Hero 5 DLC plans laid out for September photo

Activision has announced the next months worth of downloadable content for Guitar Hero 5, in addition to the previously announced Rolling Stones Live Track Pack. It is...

September 10

Street Sweeper Social Club Track Pack

  • “100 Little Curses”
  •  “Fight! Smash! Win!”
  • “Somewhere in the World It's Midnight”

September 17

AFI Track Pack

  • “Beautiful Thieves”
  • “Girl’s Not Grey”
  •  “The Missing Frame”

September 24

  • Editors - “Munich”
  • The Faint - “Geeks Were Right”
  • Yeah Yeah Yeahs - “Dull Life”

Each of the above listed packs will cost you $5.49/440 MS Points, or $1.99/160 MS Points/200 Wii Points per song. If you picked up Guitar Hero 5 this week (maybe based on our relatively positive review) do you see anything you like?

Though I hate saying this, I do wish Dull Life was going to be Rock Band DLC. The more Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the better.

I actually like The Faint. Haven't listened to them in a while, though. And I would never have thought their music would make it to a music game. Huh.

AFI is pretty much the most godawful band that has ever existed. Just thinking about how terrible they are makes me angry. No one should suck that much and get away with it. Someone should press charges against them.

Well GH5 may be better but the DLC is still shit. Awesome. Just when I thought I had options.

There is that one Yeah Yeah Yeah's song and I am a huge YYY's fanboy but it's not worth it.

Munich is good but not worth buying three songs for.

Will be playing Beatles Rock Band instead, and by the time I'm done with that I'll be playing Queen in Rock Band.

the song list is getting better and better.....but only one song from good bands like yyy's or editors are not worth to buy them :(

@VaeVictus: Well put. The header picture alone makes me cringe.

I'd buy GH5 just to play Munich.

Street Sweeper is some cool shit. Yall should check it out.

Street Sweeper - Tom Morrello and that guy from The Coup, they toured with Nine Inch Nails and Jane's Addiction on the NINJA tour, I've only really heard "Clap for the Killers" and, uh, whatever the other one from the NINJA sampler was, oh yeah, "The Oath", and I dunno, not great, not terrible, I'd rather have RATM.

Wow, that pic. I'm guessing thats AFI right? Jesus, Twisted Sister and all the other cross-dressing glam bands looked less pussy than that.

@ Gene Eric

So the game is shitty because you've skipped over some good bands? How's that work?

It's been mentioned a few times, but Munich is definitely the highlight here. Though they should probably just put the entire Back Room album as DLC.

Also, who's that chick in the header image? She is HOT.

The ONLY song I would want from that list would be from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. And that's only cause I discovered them on Rock Band. This list sucks. Further proof that Rock Band destroys Guitar Hero. It's no longer funny, it's a fact. The DLC RB announces on Friday for next week will be all the songs that GH is releasing.....in a month

Dude... Guitar Hero makes all their money by name recognition only. The fact is this DLC and the songs on the game, don't compare to what Rock Band has to offer me. Not now, not ever.

Oooh, three whole tracks a week!

At least its affordable.

@maxhavoc2000 Agreed 100%. GH is now reduced to playing catch up to RB and is now seen as a rip-off. Watch RB Beatles and Lego RB obliterate GH5. Hopefully Neversoft gets laid off or something cause they suck for ruining GH and i won't shed a tear if that happens.

Wow the people in that header image are ugly as hell. I don't usually say that, because I don't like making fun of people for something they can't help, but in this case it's their own damn faults for picking such ridiculously hideous hairstyles.

I happen to think all of these bands fucking suck...AFI first and foremost.

They are the goth kids on South Park. Seriously.

Glad to see Gene Eric is keeping up with his trolling of Guitar Hero. As for me, I won't purchase any Activision DLC, as there is no telling how long it will play nice with future installments of GH.

I remember Munich was the only good song on the radio in the first Saint's Row.

I remember when AFI was a straight up Cali hardcore band and a damn good one at that. What's happened to them since around 97 has been a sad, sad thing to watch.
