Is that enough variety for you? Hard Rock from Scotland, Swedish Melodic Death Metal, Icelandic Indie Folk, and Post-Punk Grunge Alt-Rock? Let us know!
Super stoked to see Nemesis on there!
Has anyone here taken the Rocksmith poll on the Facebook page Rocksmith Connect? The results show no women play Rocksmith! Does anyone know any Rocksmith female players?

Will there ever be any nofx on rocksmith.? I’m a big nofx fan and would really love to try some of their songs.
Nice work keeping focus with that cat trying to distract you. I would’ve had a hard time not punting it. Or at least pushing it gently out of the way…
lol try playing all videos at once. It’s magical.
Thats great elliott! Thanks for mentioning alt lead! Why no capo at normal lead?
I think it’s because the data is showing a majority of people don’t really enjoy Tuning/Capos etc.
Now that we got The Presidents of The United States of America, hoping for Lump or Cleveland Rocks.
So, Now that we have finally popped that Rocksmith Presidents cherry, there is absolutely no reason why we can’t get a five pack.
“Peaches” and “Lump” aren’t even their best songs… They ARE awesome, but they have a metric sh!tton of awesome songs…..
Rock Band got a few of their songs outside of Lump (Peaches never made it)
Dune Buggy, Feather Pluckn, and Ladybug
What the heck happened to the talkbox solo during the lengthy outro of Hair of the Dog? I was looking forward to that.
+1 and I’m really upset about it. I only play bass and I knew from playing this song on rb3 that the bass doesn’t really pick up til the end…… Or in this case it never does. I’m sad to say this song is more fun to play bass on rb3 (chords, longer cool outro) then on RS on a real instrument. Playing this was a dry hump. 🙁
You mean the re-record with the vocals everyone complained about?
*cringe*
the re-record sounds like it’s literally a cigar singing the vocals
I’m not paying for the vocals, lol. I’m paying for two guitar tracks I’ll never use and the bass track which I obviously would like to be the best one available…….In my opinion of course. 🙂
Then you should buy Arch Enemy, looks like a fun bass line
Not my genre but I’ll check out the video and I might try it if you think so. I’m having heavy strings put on a bass with a B string instead of an E for those low tunings.
I am wondering how the decision is made for tracking tab of song in rocksmith; is gbmaj7 chord seems a bit unnatural in monsters and man. Not that i dont lke it ?. Abd very often when i ask my guitarteacher when to practice a song ” from” RS we use comlete different chords
Well it’s transposed, the alt arrangement is the proper capo chart
Happy to see more DLC in general and a cool line up here. Now, I would be even more stoked if them implemented a patch/DLC to support some 7 sting songs. I’m sure KoRn would whore themselves out and let them use some song, and with most of the newer stuff out there 7 stings are becoming more accessible/utilized. Either way I hope they keep supporting and releasing DLC for this game.
Loving Arch Enemy, I wish we had more of this kind of metal as opposed to the tons of nu-metal.
