Hello Rocksmith fans!
Today’s DLC is a mixed bag from the 70’s-2000’s! There’s two huge (imo) surprises in store for you so let’s take a look at the lineup for Hit Singles IV!
From the 70s it’s a song that I personally predicted (A Train) it’s yet another Yacht Rock artist, Doobie Brothers with their hit Long Train A Running. Of course, you already knew the 80s are being covered by Loverboy’s Working For The Weekend. Next up is the 90s with another single from @Sublime! Yes, out of nowhere a sorely missing song from the five pack, Badfish off their 1992 debut album 40 oz. To Freedom! Finally the 00’s (2000s) feature the heavily requested and mysterious A Perfect Circle with one of their three singles off 2003’s Thirteenth Step, The Outsider.

A Perfect Circle!!!!!!!!!!! We are victorious this week! no more hipster bullshit, or something that sucked even back in the 80’s. ( thats why motley crue scored so low time for a hostile takeover! First thing A Perfect Circle Pack, then TOOL.
TOOL finished up with a huge drawn out court case last year. So hopefully this will free up licensing…..if they allow it!

The outsider is the only track I’ll be getting this week!
Right, because guitar solos can’t be slow paced…..
Shoot I tried to make my comment a reply to jacksonplayer but my phone screwed up.
Nah they can be slow paced, but I feel that part in badfish is too slow and easy to be one.
That’s fine, you hear a slow and boring lead guitar riff and I hear a climactic and emotional guitar solo punctuating the sorrow of alcoholism. Different strokes
Do you not understand the meaning of the word “solo” or do you just come up with your own meanings for words, like a modern-day William Shakespeare
jackson your incorrect. It is indeed what is termed a solo in the guitar and music world. It is also one of the more complex songs of the pack in the key of A mixolydian with some intermediate legato technique. Ironically, working for the weekend (the only one you say you’ll purchase) doesn’t have a true solo, and is one of the more basically constructed songs of the pack, unless your judging on tempo and quantity of notes alone. You dont need to try and twist facts to support your opinion, you can simply say you dont like the song 🙂
Looks like all music games dlc is nothing for me this week.
Every hit singles had a song i like until now.
Metal, Skapunk, 80’s rock AND reggae/yacht rock in one pack? Nice to see they’re adding variety. (also fellow Alabama Shakes fans, Sound And Color won Best alt album! [too bad not AOTY though])
C# standard? Lol… No thank you. Cheers.
:100 Cool Variety
OMG OMG OMG OMG MORE SUBLIME
Any Maynard is a good pick. I don’t really care for The Outsider but makes me hopeful for a Tool pack and Judith in very near future.
Just saw Tool & Primus on 1/20 in KS. Been really Jonsing for some Prog in RS for awhile .
I just listed to that sublime song and it is absolute garbage, it is pretty much just the same chord repeated for over 3 minutes. Just learn that chord and save your self the 3 dollars or whatever it costs, and this is coming from a guy who really enjoyed the sublime pack.
I’ll have you know it’s 5 chords AND a solo!
I would not call it a solo in my opinion, it feels to slow and easy to be one. more of a lead lick if anything and thats not until over two minutes in, I could not make it that far in with out falling asleep. The doobie brothers song is way too repetitive as well, its pretty much that same riff over and over for 4 minutes, granted its a cool riff, but it gets old real fast.
Go see a doctor, you might have narcolepsy.
Nah I just prefer exciting and non repetitive music.
“Non repetitive music”. You playin’ bruh?
A music video, wow. My neighbors kid made a music video In their garage. Maybe they will make the next “hits” DLC
Nobody wants to hear about what you video tape the neighbors doing 🙂
Great pack. Needed Badfish.
APC could have used a big pack of their own. Can’t complain when I get a chance to pull out the baritone.
Must have been sleeping the year Bigfish was a hit
Badfish is one of Sublime’s more popular songs and has a music video, so yeah.
APC definitely needs their own pack including the noose, weak and powerless, judith and so on.
APC?! Holy crap! Time to load up on the Xbox points again. Now you’re talkin’!
Long Train Running and The Outsider FTW!!! By and Down would be an awesome follow up for APC!
I’ll only take Doobie Brothers “Long Train Runnin’” from this DLC Pack.
yes, yep, for sure, definitively…. love all four tracks, especially badfish. Definite instabuy
Cool pack. Give me some more Sublime 🙂
Hmm…. Next hit singles pack please replace the “00’s” song with one from the 60’s. This is my least favorite hit singles pack so far. Good hit on “long train running” at least.
APC makes this entire pack worth the price. Here’s to more APC (or TOOLOMGZWTF@!!1!) in the future.
also, isn’t most APC in C# standard? that would put our C# standard song count to 3! (Two Weeks by ATR on all pathes and the bass path for Memeshikute by Golden Bomber)
Yup, you nailed the tuning. Get ready for that 12/8 time signature!
Don’t forget dethklok!!
Dethklok is C Standard 🙂
Best hit singles pack yet!
If you’re not excited for The Outsider, then please hand over your Rocksmith fan license.
WOAH. That was unexpected. I didn’t expect both APC to come to RS and I didn’t expect Badfish in anyway at all. Damn good surprising pack.
The Outsider for sure makes this the best hit singles pack yet!
