Hello Rocksmith fans!
Another DLC month has ended and with it comes the DLC Round-Up!
Wow, What a month it was!
A five week DLC month is always appreciated, but this one was really knocked out of the park in terms of variety! It began with a five pack from new-wave legends The Cars, then the debut of the late and often overlooked Jeff Buckley on music games (or video games for that matter), We celebrated St. Patrick’s Day with a 5 Pack of singles via The Shamrock Song Pack, Thrashed with four songs from @Anthrax, and to close out the month for April Fools we got five songs from innuendo laden Spinal Tap!
Before we check out this fantastic month of DLC let’s look back at the results of last month’s poll:
Out of 281 votes:
- Singles always seem to win, you voted for Power Ballads Singles to take the crown with 54% of the vote – 151 Votes
- Runner up was Janes Addiction with 20% of the vote – 57 Votes
- South African hard rock band Seether claimed third with 15% of the vote – 43 Votes
- Their one hit single wasn’t enough to convince y’all, it’s Papa Roach in last with 11% of the vote – 30 Votes
Variety wins once again, or maybe it was just Boston…
This month had a lot to offer for everyone but with Anthrax’s inclusion, you know that bassists were happy. Punk fuelled bass from Stiff Little Fingers, the unexpected complexity of Jeff Buckley, The syncopation of The Cars. and of course who can leave out Big Bottom by Spinal Tap!
Here’s a look at some of the top bass arrangements of March!
Not a bassists lullaby
There’s a lot going on here!
Got the time to master the bass solo in this track?
It’s all BASS
That’s not to say Guitarists were left out this month as there were some tasty solos from Anthrax (Caught In A Mosh), The Cars (You’re All I’ve Got Tonight), and Spinal Tap (Mandolin Solo!).
What is it?!
What a perfect solo
But their legacy remains
There was also two very different guitar tracks we were treated to care of Jeff Buckley and Villagers
Time to learn to fingerpick
Discovering new music through Rocksmith is always great
… And of course we finally got Zombie
Besides the BRUTAL drop tunings of @JeffBuckley, March was an all E Standard month! Check it out
