Not interested. Had high hopes being that it was 80’s and such…never heard 2 of these songs…or if I did…turned them off quick. I am not really disappointed, extremely apathetic is more like it. So, no worries here and really meant no offense to any fans…

Just Dave

I know nothing about extreme…missed that group almost entirely.

Sounds like people might have paid extra to have Hellion included. Missed opportunity there.

Speaking of Extreme… the songs are either way hard or too easy this week. My sweet spot is “Panic Switch”, Black Keys, Foo Fighters, etc.

Too many of those tall skinny bars on the chart and I have to pass.

Guitar World magazine (Ace/Slash) cover has “Tennessee Whiskey” and “Strange Ways” tabbed this month. That’s the kind a diversity I’m looking for.

CAVagrant

Who said anything about $3? There’s probably a price point that works.

firekorn

If it cost them as much as all the others to license, there’s no reason to think the price would have been any different than any other song.

The south park song was already licensed to them because the studio work on the south park game so it’s not even a case you can take into account here…

Amazing pack this week! The inclusion of anything by Extreme gets me hyped. Not only that but Judas Priest too? Kinda bummed about no Hellion but it’s only a repeating 40 second intro (which honestly if you’re that distraught, just look it up on normal tabs). And Devo is probably the easiest pill to swallow when it comes to New-Wave, and I’m so glad it wasn’t a lackluster track like Whip It or I Ran (So Far Away). Excellent Pack for all three songs.

I am looking forward to all the songs even though Play with Me is beyond my skill level. I think this is a great DLC. This is the first one in a month I am buying. For all of you who don’t like this one, there is always next week. For me I like the diversity they have been putting out over the last several weeks even if I don’t buy them. To me, this gives players of different genres something that they may want to play.

Just Dave

Thank you rocksmith for reminding me that the 80’s weren’t thaaaat great.

Just Dave

Judas Priest sure, but I say whip it to the rest. It would take more than words to show my disappointment. If you go 80’s…don’t deep dive tracks from bands that barely had 2 hits…seriously

Quick question Is this pack free? Rocksmith you can’t possibly think this is good.

Yoggers

I would’ve much preferred Devo’s Tank Girl recording of Girl U Want. That would make this a full pack buy. This version is just too pop for me to enjoy listening to while playing. I’ll have to wait for Extreme until I get a little (a LOT) better. Will probably get the JP because it looks right about my level and style. And I don’t care that Hellion is missing – I won’t miss it.

Can we get some non-metal tracks please… The Devo song is the only non-metal track this month. These devs praise variety all the time but I don’t see it this month at all. Not everyone is a shredder.

firekorn

You might wanna look a bit further than this month only though 🙄

the_PWNER

I like to spend money every month on at least one pack. I haven’t spent a nickel this month. Thanks for your shitty comment. 🙄

firekorn

You can’t just say that you don’t aim for variety in pack over only 1 month of DLC. There will always be month that are more oriented or more eclectic than other depending on what license they got and what is ready for release.
Their is still one pack to be release and it might be something completely different too.

And you can always spend money on older packs/songs too you know. I mean you might have missed something or might have improve on some areas making older songs more approachable than when it was released. It’s not like you have to get one of the pack release this month absolutely.

Casey

We still have one more week of dlc this month, and its a mystery too. Who knows what it will be!

Jerry

Gut feeling/slap your mammy

Jerry

Gut feeling/slap your mammy next please more devo

chris

why does devo feel like they are scraping the bottom. I’m sure there are plenty of people who like it but who really wants to play this. I rather get some real music not quirky noise pop

Maxime

I would have Paid it phoque , its like pizza without cheese or pepp a car without a windshield it work but Damn what have we done for this Lol. Just Put an update with the hellion and youll se ppl Will pay to get the whole feeling and song

Mr_Muddle

except you wouldnt have been able to play them one into the other anyway as they are “separate tracks” so unless the devs made it as one, then you can cue up the “why does this song cost twice as much as all the others? 40 seconds extra?”

Jerry

Devo devo devo I need more devo

Bob

Several weeks in a row with meh songs. Are they getting ready to release RS2016??

spiritualist

Not getting Electric Eye because of the “intro”? Come on guys, it’s still one of the best we’ve had recently.

Russell

awesome, challenging and unique, I’m in

lumpy

not the devo song i hoped but still an instant buy devo is always welcome !!!

Dying Fetus

I’ll take the Judas. Thank You.

FFFunk

I’m so happy for more Extreme I’ll buy it as soon as I’m home. Actually I’ll take the whole pack just to support the devs. ^^

Ty Tye

As its been pointed out its a shame that Hellion is not on here but I’m still looking forward to playing Electric Eye which is one of my favourite JP songs. Not really bothered about the other 2 songs. Wish there was more stuff like Duran Duran

jacksonplayer

Wow the lack of hellion intro really ruins that judas priest song to the point I dont even want it anymore, it sucks that I have been wishing for that song for years now and this is what I get. Well great playing man, its a shame the developers did not make it right.

top kek

Odd how much value people put on 40 seconds of sustains

jacksonplayer

It really sets the whole tone for the rest of the song, it just feels complete with that intro.

WonderWaage

I’ll never be able to play Play With Me, so I’ll only get that if I like the bass… I hate Devo so I won’t be getting that. I will get the Judas track, but it’s a shame that Hellion is missing
