Speculation: White Stripes return to Rocksmith 2014

Greetings Rocksmith fans!

It’s Friday, and the DLC clue has already been solved, in under ten minutes!

aaaand confirmed!

The White Stripes are an American rock duo formed in 1997. You may remember some of their songs like Seven Nation Army, and if you haven’t heard that song then… I guess now you have!

We already had a song in Rocksmith 1 (Icky Thump) so it’s only natural that the band receive some supplemental DLC (hopefully a 5 pack)

Confirmed

Please.

Because “Not all tracks coming on Tuesday have basslines, but some do

Confirmed by @CrossieRS

Not likely, more of a personal request.

Bassists get ready to rabble as there could be a large chance you get left out for a few of next week’s tracks… Is The White Stripes a mega hit band that you will be insta-buying? Let us know in the comments below.

BOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Terminus

I think the fake White Stripes of Weird Al’s CNR would be fun as a bonus song. It’s kind of too easy to bother though.

Darkmax77

So, I ll buy a DLC but I’ll not able to play some songs because I only have basses and no guitars.
I guess, one day, they’ll release a DLC with no guitarlines.

Ant

Still waiting on megadeths dawn patrol

Bonza Bloke

:+1: Royal Blood

IZ

White Stripes is literally a 2 instrument band. What did you expect?

Nicky

I don’t see how they could screw this up!….. but I also said that with the aerosmith pack 😳

Mike

Paul Cross confirmed Seven Nation Army in a Twitter message.

Ashley

Wouldn’t mind some Slipknot or AC/DC since they both have new albums coming out soon. and possibly some Metallica or Slayer next year as they have new albums coming out next year.

Mike

Why must you always spam metal requests here?

IZ

I think if Ubi could get ACDC they would have already. 😉

Richie Rich

Ball and biscuit hands down should be on there.

victorvonbass

I expect Blue Orchid. I don’t know if I will get this pack for sure yet as I don’t really play guitar, but we will see.

Jacksonplayer

I think I’ll pass on this one, the only White Stripes song i like is Icky Thump and RS1 did a poor job on that one by not charting those solos and I doubt they would remake it in this dlc. On a side note I hope we get some more challenging dlc soon, I’m starting to get a little too comfortable. I need my fingers to bleed!

Louis

I’m sure the solos are played on a organ.

Jacksonplayer

Some of the solo parts were, but others where on guitar with an octave pedal. They should have arranged the organ parts on guitar anyway, It would have been possible by using the octave pedal.

Mike

Actually those “organ” solos were played on a clavioline, but I agree that the charting in Icky Thump was disappointing.

Louis

I love the Clav family of instruments the clavinet on Superstition by Stevie Wonder got me hooked. it’s the funkiest bassy-ist keyboard tone.

Mike

The Seven Nation Army chant has failed in Baltimore tonight.

Warren Peace

Royally

Bob

Bass player sad 🙁

Seven Nation Army opening riff sounds better on bass anyway.

Chris

yeah there’ll be no bass on these i guess.

FUCK YOU WE WANT ROYAL BLOOD

Bonza Bloke

:+1: Going to request it now 😉

Chris

You have to use facebook for requests so I will just spam here and hope someone worth something (I.E. not from Ubisoft) who can do something about it will read it.

Played WatchDogs recently on PC and the bloody Ubisoft bloatware they make you use… Ubisoft you suck so hard you make the Xbox interface seem reasonable.

backwards_tulsa

Finally! About freaking time.

BandFuse Fan #3728

This is the kind of DLC that would be perfect for Bandfuse ❗

Warren Peace

Bandfuse’s surrender was the biggest defeat in the history of rocking out video games. Our only hope is they regroup and come back with a vengeance. Hurrah!

Bob

Bandfuse was dead to me as long as it didn’t release on PC.

Now it’s dead to everyone else.

Warren Peace

For us with TVs, HURRAH!

BandFuse Fan #3728

Whether Bandfuse is dead or not, this kind of DLC would still be perfect for a real guitar game that uses stems and ducking, so you don’t have to double up your guitar playing all the time with the original guitar.

Rafael Lange

Well, let’s guess…

Fell In Love With A Girl
Seven Nation Army
The Hardest Button To Button
Blue Orchid
Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground

Oh my, there’s still a lot that could make it:

Hypnotize
Ball and Biscuit
Girl, You Have No Faith In Medicine
Hotel Yorba
Now Mary
Hello Operator
Apple Blossom

Already waiting anxiously for a second 5-pack!

Jeff

Agree with your chosen five – it would almost be an insta-purchase for me!

hammer1021

Ball and biscuit!!!

Unmuscleman

Here take my money 2 weeks in a row. I’ll take a 5 pack of White stripes. Ball and Biscuit please.

dXk

We need both Ball and Biscuit and Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground. This would make me a happy DXK.

forest1903

Does Rocksmith have support for a slide/bottleneck? Will this DLC come with tutorial videos for using slides?

Nick

I seem to remember them saying the note tracking didn’t support slides, but that may have been just RS1 (hence the freebird chart being a bit meh)

Jacksonplayer

Speaking of lackluster RS1 charts, the chart for ICKY Thump was a heap of garbage. They did not include the solos at all and that made the song boring and repetitive.

Terminus

They didn’t upgrade Free Bird for RS 2014 either; it has the same boring acoustic intro.

Dedalus2k

I was just thinking about that the other day while listening to the Allman Brothers. I hope they work it in. Couldn’t see why the software couldn’t pick it up.

Jeam95

Meh! this is very easy for me

WonderWaage

Wow. You must be so awesome, give yourself a pad on the bag for me.

KorbenD

Pad on the bag? Do you have a cold?

Bat Wings

I may eventually get it
but why should we pay full price for DLC thats lacking Bass or Rhythm path …?

WonderWaage

What a classic DLC reply/comment. Throw back friday indeed.

StevenCX

This should be awesome. Would be extra awesome to get White Stripes x4 with Raconteurs Steady as She Goes my favorite Jack White tune.

Hone McBone

Hoping they have the White Stripes cover of Jolene.

Honky thom

I’m mixed, I may get it, I may not. I like some good old rock and roll, and this is mostly that, but the songs that don’t have basslines, I really think they NEED basslines. I’m just waiting for the bass to kick in to really make the track go, but it never happens… this better mean that next week is Primus or Chili’s or Larry Graham or Funkadelic or just something really good for the bassists! Yeah I can wish. I’ve already put in my requests. I shouldn’t post when it’s this late. Sorry.

Bob

I would love that so much. Graham Central Station, Primus, RHCP, PRINCE! BRING ON THE BASS!

Honky thom

I know, only one slap bass song in the whole game, and that was from Rocksmith 1, so it’s certainly needed. MORE SLAP!!!

Ant

its a few songs with slap in it I know we want the funk and rio have them for sure

Honky thom

We want the funk doesn’t have any slap in it, and Rio doesn’t either, just a couple of pops – it really does not count as a slap bass track at all. Higher Ground is the only slap bass track the game has ever seen. And I nailed that on the first game.

Honky thom

I will admit I missed this one as I don’t much like this band, but to be fair a couple of slap riffs and most of the song in fingerstyle still doesn’t, to me, count as a slap bass track. Sorry to be a pedant, but i am one so there you go. 😉

WonderWaage

I will be buying this no matter what’s in the pack. I want that sweet sweet Jack White…

Mike

Orioles are playing in the ALCS this week and they chant Seven Nation Army during a rally. What if this DLC sends Baltimore to the World Series.

Bat Wings

I doubt RS DLC will have any affect at all on the series outcome
but…sport fans can be quite superstious
when their team is in the hunt to go to the BIG dance

Mike

O’s just rallied to the power of Seven Nation Army. It works!

Bat Wings

ummmm
the “O’s” lost 8 – 6 in 10 innings
it didn’t work

Bat Wings

its REALLY NOT working
as the “O’s” lost again 6 – 4
& if it continues it may HURT RS sales as
O’s fans are not gonna want to hear it ever again
