Rock Band Weekly Update 2 November 2011
Multi-platinum selling artists Breaking Benjamin are kicking off November’s Rock Band downloadable content offerings with “Breaking Benjamin Pack 02,” featuring some of the band’s biggest hits. “Sooner or Later,” from Breaking Benjamin’s second album, 2004’s We Are Not Alone, leads the pack. It’s rounded out with two tracks from 2006’s Phobia, “Until the End” and the chart-topping single, “Breath.”
A single track from Papa Roach, “Forever,” is also hitting the Rock Band Music Store next week. The hit single comes off the band’s fifth album, 2006’s The Paramour Sessions. The album was recorded at California’s famous and allegedly haunted “Paramour Mansion”; Papa Roach vocalist Jacoby Shaddix even says that some lyrics to “Forever” were inspired by a resident spirit!
As always, songs available as downloadable content for Rock Band 3 feature five-button guitar and bass parts, drums, Pro Drums, and keys, Pro Keys and harmonies, where applicable. Some songs also feature Pro Guitar and Pro Bass upgrades available for an additional $0.99 upgrade download.
