Hello Rocksmith fans!
The clue has been posted and solved and it appears we are getting another Hit Singles Song Pack!
Check out @DanAmrich’s clue:
CPMcFisticuffs was quick to notice that the image is called “Strangers in the Night” by matthewfoxxphotos.

Nice photoshop work (auto levels we mean).
The ISBNs pointed towards…
Nice work m.pr!
I think you know where Dan is heading with this but if not..
It’s Joker and the Thief by Australian rock band, Wolfmother!
Since the other three tracks could be literally anything, we aren’t going to raise expectations with pointless speculation, instead we leave it up to our readers to speculate on their own as to what may come next Tuesday.
Are you excited for Wolfmother though? I know someone that isn’t!

Not excited, not disappointed. I like Wolfmother ok. Ok the other 3 will be hit singles, so I shall effort a guess. Barely Breathing by Duncan Sheik…Burning Down the House by Talking Heads and Better Man by Pearl Jam or Spin the Black Circle. Money by Pink Floyd could be in the cards….wait what….Cindy Lauper? No nevermind. Oh wait Nevermind….dumb by Nirvana and All Apologies….yep. Can you feel some Seattle before it was communist coming on? Nice. I know I guessed too much but No one reminded me to stop and I can barely count to 3 on any on my toe.
Is there a theme with this pack?
If not are we just guessing somewhere within the realm of Mozart, Sousa, Robert Johnson, Mahalia Jackson, Lightning Hopkins, James Brown, Funkadelic, Isaac Hayes, and Bob Marley, to John Williams, Aaron Copland, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Kirk Franklin, ZZ Top, Prince, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Wu-Tang Clan, and Lauryn Hill?
I mean the field is too wide. Dr. Dre has some very good basslines played by Mike Elizondo. Andre Crouch and Edwin Hawkins have some good basslines from the 1970s era gospel music. Van Halen is on Rockband now. Still missing some stuff from Heart, Def Leppard, and No Doubt.
What about Stetsasonic – Talking All That Jazz? (By the way, has Jazz even been represented yet?)
Much like the last pack (Hit Singles) it’s just highly requested songs that don’t fit into themed packs
Danzig- Mother, Monster Magnet- Space Lord. Whitesnake- Still of the night. Reasonable yet awesome expectations I think.
Yes, this
Rainbow
Deep Purple
Scorpions
&
UFO
++
I’m guessing
Night Ranger
Lover Boy
and
Def Leppard
Rainbow would be awesome, maggot brain by funkadelic, deep purple, we will probably get more queen because we always get queen in a singles pack.
The Raconteurs – Steady, As She Goes
This is too creepy! I was actually thinking to myself just yesterday that the lack of representation from Wolfmother was surprising, especially since ‘Joker and the Thief’ is still used literally everywhere… it’s like the Samuel L. Jackson of songs.
some Black Rebel Motorcycle Club would be a treat.
That would be a good choice 🙂
Radiohead – There, There
The Mars Volta – The Widow
Coheed And Cambria – Welcome Home
And songs that I wish were hits so i could have an excuse to have them in the game:
Swans – Oxygen
Arcade Fire – Wake Up
Neutral Milk Hotel – Holland, 1945
Wolfmother! Yeah, love to see more of this band! Great!
I’d like an Aussie pack with some of these excellent new bands coming from down under like Closure in Moscow and Hands Like Houses.
Definitely buying the Wolfmother song, even if I wish it were a full pack of theirs. Cosmic Egg is a great album, I would take any song from it. Who knows what else we will get. These packs always surprise me by how random they are.
I’d love some more Pearl Jam
Amen…. Put the rock back in rocksmith… With a dirty grunge pack!!!… Please!!!!!!!
Love it, easy buy for me. I’ve requested several Wolfmother tunes. Can’t wait for Tuesday. So many songs not enough time in the day to learn them all. Need to quit my job and become a starving wannabe musician.
I just listened to the Mike Patton rant. Is it just me or does he sound like a lot of the whiners on here who complain about the DLC every week? I’m hearing it Mike Patton and guess what, I’ll be buying it, lol!
Except in my opinion he’s right, Woman for me was an attempt at capturing the “why can’t everyone listen to Led Zeppelin instead?” market. They made their mark though, so good for them.
Do you think that’s what they were thinking when they recorded it or is it just coincidence that their music is greatly influenced by the music they love? And since when is listening to Led Zeppelin a bad thing? We’ll just have to agree to disagree on this one 😉
I find that forcing a classic rock sound like that is a bit cringeworthy. Joker and The Thief is cool but Woman is pretty pandering in my opinion. They aren’t a horrible band though, just not my thing. Deadboy and The Elephantmen once opened for them and I didn’t go, which is slightly regrettable because I could have seen Dax Riggs twice instead of once.
Personally I love the sound of the heavy 70’s classic rock. I like other newish bands who have a similar style like Scorpion Child and Rival Sons too. I will agree with you, Woman is not my favourite song of theirs, but it’s still better than a lot of the new rock that’s coming out these days. Regardless of our differing opinion, I still respect yours. I love this site and I love this game. It’s got me to pick up a guitar again after 30 years and it feels great.
We’re gonna see some Jack White.
John Mayer!
Ween, weezer , white zombie
There is many alternatives for this pack: The Who, Deff leppard…
Counting crows
I’d rather get some more Mike Patton. Bungle, anyone?
I’ve requested Mr. Bungle but not exactly optimistic of their inclusion in any music game.
I’d be down for that.
Would love to see more Wolfmother at some stage and more Aussie bands like Powderfinger, the Vines, Grinspoon and Jet. Thanks Rocksmith team!
Looks like this mix pack is off to a good start.
This is exciting! That is one hell of a fun song.
Great first song, starts well! Won’t speculate on the 3 others, as you said it can be just anything, will wait for tuesday’s suprise. 🙂
