Hello Rocksmith fans!
Happy New Year and welcome to 2016, it’s time for the first DLC of the month and it’s four hit singles from the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and yes the 2000s, it’s Hit Singles III!

Representing the 1970’s is Wild Cherry’s Play That Funky Music! The lead track doesn’t feature any sort of chord progression so you’ll have to access rhythm to get that funk down. Cool to see a track from Guitar Hero 5 end up in RS. As for the 1980s it’s a blast from the past straight from Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks The 80’s, Asia’s Heat of The Moment! The solo may surprise you.. The 1990’s contains a very anticipated track for me personally. It’s the song that means they want you out of the bar, Semisonic’s Closing Time. Finally to wrap up the 2000’s and compliment the addition of Joker and the Thief it’s Wolfmother’s Woman, complete with a charted organ solo. That’s some GH: Smash Hits stuff right there!

psst… Don’t forget to vote in the Rocksmith DLC Battle 2015!
Mercyful fate please
I respect all genres of music but my fav is metal. I’d love to see a Mercyful Fate pack \m/
Same, make sure you request it.
Sorry to go off topic. I just wanted to re-post this comment that I saw from DanAmrich on the Ubisoft forum. Thought this was really cool.
“Please remember that we’re here to serve a wide audience and every week’s DLC is going to resonate with different segments of the audience. That’s okay. That’s how it’s actually designed to work. Do not expect anything else, or you’ll simply be making yourself unhappy, and we can’t change that. “
Wolfmother for president!
Any chance of getting a Scorpions,Styper or more Disturbed Dlc’s packages for Rocksmith 2014 and will rocksmith add Music videos onto rocksmith 2016?
Guess you are expecting a different answer to the same question you ask every week in 2016 huh?
someone explain the hate wolfmother get’s. srsly. i can get if you dislike “retro” sounding stuff or the vocals or whatever but it’s just “bleh wolfmother” while corny uninspired bs get’s a pass (and no i won’t be pointing fingers here)
nevermind….
what i wanted to say was: PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC 😀 😀 😀
Wolfmother rocks! I love the retro vibe but can see why some people might be turned off by the guitar effects. I wish we wold get a 3 pack now with “pilgrim”, “sundial” and “white unicorn”.
Sundial! 😀
give me colossal and I’d be really happy
“New moon rising” is fun too. Actually “joker and the thief” and “woman” are in the middle of the pack for me as far as how much I like them however I do enjoy playing them more than I do listening to them.
I love Wolfmother, but I like Cosmic Egg better than their first album. I can see the similarities between Woman and Joker and Thief and would like to see more variety.
you know why the dislike its because they made it as a band but they sound like they are just paying homage to bands like led zeppelin which is just wrong. Its like get your own sound or stay in your garage
Im with you 100% on “Live”. I was just thinking the other day about how they desperately need a pack. Anything from Throwing Copper or Secret Samadhi …the possibilities…
Cheers!
Ha thanx! Very logical ofcourse ? Cant stay here longer i have to play my new pack lol
Hopefully, Asia is the beginning of Progressie Rock in rocksmith. Yes, King Crimmson, Dream Theater, Peter Gabriel-era Genesis, The Mars Volta and if Nick Mason is nice enough, Pink Floyd (but it probably won`t happen).
I hope this is the start of more progressive rock in the game. We definitely need MOAR>
Rush?
Asia – interesting and will buy. Gotta love 80s fun!
Play that funky music?? Bad wedding soundtrack. Really, really bad choice.
I think were in buisness. Just got pack 😀
ok, gave the pack a twice over. On the “accessible” (read easier) side but really fun. Excellent idea to chart the piano on closing time, makes it much more enjoyable. I would have rather had the songs on schedule, but its pretty cool how steam gives you an in game update letting you know the songs have downloaded.
