New tracks announced for Harmonix's game

There are three things fans of music sim surely love: Rock Band, Guitar Hero and downloadable songs for each game. Fortunately, the developers never let us wait too long before coming with brand new, quality DLC (or completely new games, if we're to look closely at Activision's release schedule). What matters most now, though, is the fact that Harmonix and MTV Games have just announced that pretty soon, two triple A groups would make their way to Rock Band: Nine Inch Nails and Shinedown.

The Nine Inch Nails 3-pack includes the tracks Burn (the song which put everybody under its spell after being chosen for the Natural Born Killers soundtrack), Capital G (the beloved track from the band's fifth album), Year Zero and Last (from the Broken EP). In other words, we can say that both Nine Inch Nails fans as well as generic rock fans will be satisfied with the offer.

And if there are still a few wanting for more, a Shinedown 2-track DLC will bring us Devour, the most recent hit from the Sound of Madness album and Junkies For Fame, released exclusively for the game - a single which the fans will instantly love.

All the tracks will be available for purchase as separate songs (for 160 MS Points or $1.99 each), with the mention that Nine Inch Nails' can be purchased as a DLC pack for 440 MS Poins (or $5.49). Xbox 360 users will be able to get the songs starting tomorrow, the 22nd of July, while PS 3 owners will have to wait three extra days until they can purchase them from the PlayStation store, on the 25th of July. After that, things will be pretty easy for everybody: start the game and rock on with Nine Inch Nails or Shinedown.
