You know what I just realized? ROCK BAND has 4,134 songs available for in-game play as of this writing. That’s an insane amount of tracks available for a game series that’s already over five years old. As always, they’ve got new DLC hitting this Tuesday, and those browsing the ROCK BAND Music Store can look forward to new tracks from MAROON 5 featuring CHRISTINA AGUILERA, FOSTER THE PEOPLE, and FOO FIGHTERS. I’ve got the full details right here on The Rock Father below, along with details on last weeks additions (ANDREW W.K., fun., PINK, etc.) since I missed them with the turn of the New Year.
