Surfs up Rocksmith fans! Hope you are enjoying the Steam Summer Sale! I was unfortunately unable to update the article with the latest deals, but thankfully @DanAmrich and @UbisoftStudioSF were on the ball to make up for my indisposed status.
I had requested Sublime for my birthday week of DLC and Ubisoft gave me a Surf Rock Pack instead! I’m totally ok with this!
This is an interesting week because although the artists in this pack such as: The Ventures, Dick Dale, and The Surfaris aren’t on the same label, they still agreed to play nice together in a discounted pack!
Awesome!
Surf Rock Song Pack – $7.99 / Steam
- Dick Dale and His Del-Tones “Misirlou” (No Rhythm) – [XBL] / Steam
- The Surfaris “Wipe Out” – [XBL] / Steam

Is this the type of variety you love to get? Do you love the fact you won’t have to tune down (or up) to rock out these Surf Rock classics? Let us know!
Awesome pack!
Would have loved to seen a Ziggens track (61.9) snuck in. Still buying.
Maybe next week we’ll get that Chili Peppers pack.
Decided to buy iron maiden pack on steam for pc and this for ps3 just can.t resist used to play all three of these in a band but havn.t played them for years. Lol
This is a nice addition they almost have most guitar styles covered but I would love to see some jazz guitar in the future
yeah, I’d love a bit of Wes Montgomery myself…
While it is “Rocksmith”, I wouldn’t mind seeing a little more variation too. A little jazz would be nice. More blues, too. Don’t have much of a stomach for country, but I can understand if others would enjoy it.
Bought 2 out of 3.
I hope there will be a Beach Boys 3-pack in the future.
I can’t wait 😈
Will get this sometime. But been promising myself the maiden pack on payday. Just wish i could play rocksmith more.don.t have much time Damn you work.lol
What? No Surf Punks? Just kidding; this looks like a fun group of songs, the first pack I will have purchased in entirety for quite some time.
Man, look how nicely the rock stars of yesteryear dressed. They really cleaned up.
Good stuff, would have liked ‘riders in the sky’ but it’s still a fun set.
would not have been able to name the songs or the artist, but I recognized these classic riffs. Hope it is within my mediocre ability level.
Cowabunga.
Yiss! 😛
This 3 set is a definite for me, I like the songs they have chosen.
Yup! Bought all 3
I’ve learnt Misirlou and wipeout, and half of walk don’t run already, they are great fun to play!
Walk don’t run, AWESOME!!
Pretty cool. I’ve never played any surf rock on guitar before, so this will be interesting. Any good guitar player should learn many different styles.
Kick. Butt. These are going to be very fun!
Sold. Beach Boys would have been nice but this pack is good.
Nice, getting this.
Yay we have a new winner for oldest song on rocksmith, so close to hitting the 50s.
Sold
Awesome pack! Walk don’t run has such a cool guitar riff. Can’t wait to try these out tomorrow.
Awesome. Honestly the only I’m interested in this week is “Misirlou”. Partially due to GH2 nostalgia, but also because it has one of my all-time favorite guitar tones.
4 out of the 5 songs in the final gig of Guitar Hero II are now in Rocksmith, only Institutionalized by Suicidal Tendencies is absent.
Beach rock without the Beach Boys? Classic Rocksmith failure
these are all surf instrumentals
this is not a fail at all
No? Ok then, how about 8 bucks for about 5 min worth of songs?
And The Ventures without Vibrations. Double fail.
Wait and see if they get their own 3-5 pack
Can I use my guitar as a surfboard? 😆
Those swiss army axes have the surf attachment! 😉
Cool daddy-o!
