We told you guys about this nearly a month ago, but now it’s official: 505 Games has redubbed its Wii drumming title, Drum King for North American audiences.

Teaming up with the legendary music magazine, the game will be called Rolling Stone: Drum King when it hits shelves this spring. Gamers will be able to utilize the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to drum along to 30 tracks; no additional peripherals needed. Unfortunately, 505 couldn’t leverage the Rolling Stone name to get master tracks — they’re all covers. 505 is calling them “top-quality covers inspired by artists,” but they’re covers nonetheless.

The full track listing can be found after the jump, which appears to be identical to the European game save for one detail — it’s missing the DJ Shadow track “Organ Donor.” Looks like Activision has that on lock for DJ Hero.
