The Week in Rock Band DLC: Journey, Pat Benatar, and more photo

Our GDC crew told you that Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" would be making its way to Rock Band as downloadable content after experiencing the song first hand at a party, but they didn't know when it was releasing. As it turns out, the monstrously popular hit will be out next week. How fun!

But, that's not all. Here's the full line-up planned for this coming Tuesday and Thursday:

  • Pat Benatar -- "Heartbreaker"
  • Glasvegas -- "Geraldine" 
  • Von Bondies -- "C’Mon C’Mon"
  • SpongeBob SquarePants -- "I Can’t Keep My Eyes Off of You"
  • SpongeBob SquarePants -- "The Best Day Ever"
  • SpongeBob SquarePants -- "Where’s Gary?" 

An ... interesting group of songs, to say the least. The SpongeBob songs are $.99 each (80 Microsoft Points) and the remaining songs will run you $1.99 a piece (160 Points). Samit spoke highly of "C'Mon C'Mon" this morning, and upon watching the music video for it, I suddenly remembered the catchy tune.

It's pretty good, in case you were wondering.

Spongebob now has more songs on RB than Radiohead. I'm going to go kill myself now.

I think this is Harmonix's way of both doing an early April Fools joke (though the DLC is real and will be out Tuesday) and appeasing the Wii RB owners.

I am quite excited for the Spongebob songs. They will be high tier vocals. He's all over the fucking place.

Also, Don't Stop Believing.

The Spongebob songs are really cheap for some reason. Why's that?

I'm tempted to get Where's Gary (Gary come home?).

If it's the one I'm thinking of it's actually a pretty good song by Stew.

Oh god. I remember that C'mon C'mon song. Because it was in Burnout 3 and I heard every song in that game like 200 times...

I was just singing Don't Stop Believin' in my car and thinking to myself "THis should be in Rockband, cause it's badass".

Bam. I'm directly responsible. I'd tell Harmonix to get out of my head, but maybe they'll bring some other awesome tracks (that I happen to sing poorly in the confines of my car...)

I'll pick up Don't Stop Believing...maybe Heartbreaker also. There are better Pat Benatar songs though. I want Invincible, damnit.

Oh, don't ANYONE tell me you're not excited for Spongebob. Fuck you, if you think you're above playing a Spongebob song.

I can't wait for Heartbreaker and Journey.
Unfortunately I will due to RROD.

The difference, Holyetheline, is that Spongebob is good and Radiohead isn't good at all.

Geraldine is the perfect song for Rock Band! I'm so glad they put it on.
