The Week in Rock Band DLC: Steve Miller, Rob Zombie, Belly, and more photo

Next week's Rock Band store update has been announced, and it's a ridiculous mish-mash of songs, new and old:

  • Steve Miller Band - "Space Cowboy"
  • Steve Miller Band - "Take the Money and Run"
  • Steve Miller Band - "The Joker"
  • Godsmack - "I Stand Alone"
  • Belly - "Feed the Tree"
  • Ghost Hounds - "Wind Me Up"
  • Mute Math - "Typical"
  • Rob Zombie - "War Zone"

While I'm still demanding more White Zombie and less Rob Zombie songs from ridiculous action flicks, I will probably buy all of these songs. At $1.99 (160 MS Points) per song, I'm looking to spend around $16.00. Or I can save some cash by picking the Steve Miller Pack three-pack for $5.49 (440 MS Points). 

Don't tell me I'm the only one who is going to be thinking of Prince of Persia: Warrior Within's Dahaka when rocking "I Stand Alone."

"Dragula" is a hilarious song, and would be really fun to play in Rock Band, damn it!

Is it just me or has Rock Band's new DLC been lackluster?

"Space Cowboy"? Why not "Fly Like An Eagle"?
White Zombie would be more prefereable.

And ZeroTolo, I second that motion.

Dear Rock Band,
please acquire the following songs:

- Dire Straits - Money for Nothing
- Jonny B Goode, don't care if it's a cover

Sincerely, everyone who grew up in the 80's.

Nice, I'm down for some Steve Miller.

I want Green Day's Dookie album for DLC. Every kid in America owned that at one point. I checked the statistics.

Woo! I actually like this DLC.

Sadly Nick, 'I Stand Alone' makes me think of the movie 'The Scorpion King'

Steve Miller is a nice way to chill. I still want more Wolfmother though.

Godsmack is cool, they could have gotten a better Rob Zombie song though.

Still want some fucking Nevermore.

I thought "Fly like an Eagle" was in it. And i'm still not clear, but is this stuff going to be on the Wii this week too?

Yeeeeaaaah. I was hoping for more White Zombie rather than Rob Zombie as well.

Also Dragula is awesome.

@EightBitMav

It's a downloadable song so it'll work with either Rock Band 2 or the original.

feed the tree is cool, might go good w/ the lush song, take the money and run seems like a good idea, same for muthmath, not sure about the other stuff, maybe the other steve miller.
how long before these songs on wii? if we're lucky, this week, though they might go through everything else til they get up to the new stuff. hope not

Yeah... Prince of Persia Warrior Within is one of my favorite gaming experiences of all time.

I'll buy the song just for that, but I'm afraid really singing it out will hurt my thwoat.

It wouldn't kill'em to add I am Hell, The One & More Human Than Human.

I'm waiting for someone to record a "Typical" GS run played backwards...

I will probably either pick up just the Godsmack, or maybe even all of them, since it seems like a solid list. Could use White Zombie instead of Rob Zombie, but hey, you take what you can get.

And I second Syn's motion with a vote and cookie to Harmonix if they put in Nevermore. It may not be for everyone, but it'll probably be one of the toughest bands to play the guitar part for. They're not fast like (oh god) Dragonforce, but they have very intricate parts. I'd love to see that in Rock Band...as soon as double pedal drumming works.
