Rock Band downloadable content: Punk Rock

December 12th, 2007

Punk Rock

This week’s Rock Band downloadable content is a genre that I hold dear - punk. The song on offer are The Clash’s “I Fought the Law”, The Ramones’ “Rockaway Beach” and The Buzzcocks’ “Ever Fallen In Love?”. As much as I love these old bands, I hope they release another pack that proves to be a bit more challenging – maybe with a bit of Op Ivy or Bad Religion. Usual pricing of 160 Microsoft Points (Xbox 360) or $1.99 (PlayStation 3) per track and 440 Microsoft Points or $5.49 for all three.
