Greetings Rocksmith fans!
As previously shown, this week’s DLC is a three pack from the hugely successful English rock band, Duran Duran!
We had first heard rumblings of this bands addition at the beginning of this year!
@Steven_Anthony oooh, one of those is definitely coming this year… can’t say when just yet tho.

Don’t you love it when someone gets the DLC they request?
Anyway, this week’s DLC features two very familiar songs to anyone that has played Guitar Hero or Rock Band. Yes, just as you expected both Rio and Hungry Like The Wolf are being added to the growing Rocksmith DLC library. The biggest surprise however is the third song off their 1993 self-titled album, Ordinary World!
While this pack is definitely geared towards our 4 string bass overlords (Rio may be one of the hardest bass arrangements yet), I (personally) found the lead arrangements on guitar to be pretty engaging, with some great tones. Especially Ordinary World which gave me chills on both Guitar and Bass.
Have at it!
