Rocksmith+ begins August with Reggae and Comedy Rock

Hello Rocksmith fans!

Welcome to August, we’ve got a new drop of songs from artists such as Sublime, Desmond Dekker, Bob Marley & The Wailers, and Comedy Rock from Wolves of Glendale and Tom McGovern.

Let’s get right into it!


Right off the bat, we noticed a pretty noticeable delisting, that was confirmed with yesterday’s tracklist posting.

Deactivated Songs

  • Bobby Solo – In The Ghetto
  • Rodrigo y Gabriela – Orion
  • Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers – American Girl
  • Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers – Breakdown

Tom Petty is the first delisting we’ve seen from content released from WMG (this song was added to the library in December 2023). However, there is an interesting development in why this may have happened…

Fingers crossed…

Metallica original when?
