Hello Rocksmith fans!

Next up we have some classic rock with Scottish band Nazareth’s Hair of The Dog! Hope it’s no the re-record… You wanted a challenge this week? Well, you’re going to get one with @ArchEnemyMetal’s Nemesis, and yes, that is Angela Gossow on vocals. Finally the already revealed Of Monsters and Men song Little Talks wraps up the variety pack for this week, awesome!

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!

Love this pack. Variety is the spice of life and I can say that I like all of these songs now. Was glad for Nazareth and a bit excited for Arch Enemy…but the other two are cool two. Nice job RS crew. I really enjoy the simple songs sometimes…these all seemed pretty simple.
Dang, I’m not really into the growly stuff but this Arch Enemy band isn’t bad. 🙂
“War Eternal” sounds quite a bit more accessible for a guitar hacker like me, and I would probably pick that up if it were in RS. But there’s no way I could even get started on that crazy “Nemesis” song! Waaay out of my league.
This pack kicks ass! Gonna buy it right now!
YOOOO 👿 AWESOME
“Hair of the dog”!!!! Nice, thanks for throwing us classic rockers a bone rocksmith. 🙂
Never mind, you can have your bone back… I thought it was going to be a LONGER, tastier bone. My bad for posting before playing it. Lol
I’m all for Arch Enemy. But that’s it this week. enjoy all 🙂
Chris Ballew plays on a bass like a guitar, he calls it a “basitar”. I think he plays on a Epiphone Eb-3 but with only 2 strings.
Agree with Dangermouse completely, though not as extreme, I’m just an old man and A.E is just a little bit too much for my ears. I’m sure their fans are bloody delighted though and good for them. Let’s enjoy. ??❤️
I second that buddy \m/
Feeling pretty blown away. It’s been a long time since RS has provided metal this heavy. So happy. Arch Enemy is one of my favorite metal bands, and I’m very glad to see it’s from one of the Angela albums. It’ll also be nice to give Dethklok and QOTSA some more company in C Standard too.
I wish we could have gotten a 3 pack by Arch Enemy with Nemesis, I am Legend/Out For Blood, and Enemy Within.
2 – meh’s
1 – maybe
1 – Hell Yea !!!
Nice variety RS unfortunately some one have something negative to say per usual.
Keep up the great work lml/
😥
Nazareth? Cool, not my favorite glam rock band but I think it’s cool that they’re in. Tpotusoa is also ok but I would’ve preferred Lump.
What’s this ‘Reject Bin Pack’?
Haha yea pretty much. Pretty much par for the year so far though. Either a new version will be at E3 or this game is on the unfortunate slide down
With absolutely zero reasoning behind that statement it must be true!! xD
Glad you agree
Just out of interest what bands do you actually like? Every single DLC post on here just has you moaning like a bitch, I can only presume you only enjoy silence.
Other than your moms moans? I’ve covered this before, the 2 I’m most anticipating are Slipknot and Jimmy Eat World. I’ve got a range of music I like, most of them you can’t find in the bargin bin, with most of the DLC
So wait, do you think that Jimmy Eat World is more popular than Of Monsters and Men right now?
Wait, wait.. after all this countless whining, your precious epitome of musical taste is Jimmy Eat World and Slipknot? 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
That’s the downside microsoft learned with having the release year in your software title’s name. People see 2014 and think it’s not good anymore.
There’s a huge amount of songs available and if you don’t see anything you like this week, go to

You mean ubisoft. I agree putting the year in the title is a bad thing; The first year people are tempted to buy it because it is new, but forever after it appears as an old version. Probably evens out overall though.
We just upgraded to Office 2013 at work…but it’s 2016!
I’ll take Peaches for nostalgia. The other songs, I now understand the WTF behind this pack.
Duuuude Sweeeet!!
I think this might be my all time favorite pack. Def better than the hit single packs.
Yeah ok.
wtf is right that’s a bag of random songs. Will Peaches have a bass line that is the question i need answered
Yeah, pretty sure it will.
Peaches and Nazareth definite buy but I realise music is all about personal taste I would rather cycle to work tomorrow with a cheese grater glued to the saddle than listen to arch enemy again
I agree, Arch Enemy sucks ass. Should’ve given us some Gojira or Opeth.
Lolol agreed. Two out of four is OK I guess.
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch 😛
Lasiks seems to be in order for Rocksmith crew as their definition of “variety” is hideously myopic.
Go on
They all have guitars, bass guitars, drums and vocals. How can they claim variety without sitars, zithers, accordions, timpani and vuvazelas??? Gosh!
Hell yeah!! Arch Enemy \m/
Nemesis is C Standar I haven’t Heavy gauge strings in this moment 😥 😥
I am really excited about this pack. It is a must buy for me.
I have requested Nemesis so I am definitely in for that!
