Evidence that Rock Band levels-up drum skills
In the above clip, Attack of the Show's own Kevin Periera thought it would be a good idea to put his expert Rock Band skills to the test. While meeting up with Coheed and Cambria during their Linkin Park support tour, Periera was challenged to take his new found drumming skills and apply them to a legit kit during a play through session of Welcome Home.So how did Periera stack up using his gaming skills? He completely nails the track! We're not sure if Periera's got a drumming background, but if it's been a strict diet of Rock Band, color us impressed![Via Kotaku]
Coheed and Cambria Music Showcase on XBLM
Not a part of the Artist of the Month series, instead part of a newer Xbox Live Music Showcase program, Coheed and Cambria are celebrating the second single off their album No World For Tomorrow with a free video download off of the XBLM. Coheed and Cambria's four plus minute video "Feathers" music video can be downloaded off the U.S. Marketplace and into your musical heart. Or so, we think that's the point of offering a free video, to get you to love it obsessively. Enjoy!
Rock Band Weekly: Coheed and Cambria, Rush and Smashing Pumpkins
Gasp at the ancient picture of The Smashing Pumpkins above. Go ahead, gasp already. This week the Rock Band downloadable content brings us the song Siva, which hails from way back when The Smashing Pumpkins actually looked like this. Don't you just want to pinch little Billy Corgan's cheeks? Along with the The Pumpkins we also get some more Rush and ride the Ten Speed.Individual songs Siva - Smashing Pumpkins (160 MS points/ $2) Working Man - Rush *Cover* (160 MS points/ $2) Ten Speed (Of God's Blood and Burial) - Coheed and Cambria *Cover* (160 MS Points / $2) Check out the videos after the break as we go back into the void of not knowing what Rock Band DLC will grace us next week -- if any. No, seriously, we're pretty sure there'll be more next week.
Xbox.com lists Rock Band DLC through January: Oasis, Smashing Pumpkins and more
Stealing the thunder out of Harmonix's weekly Rock Band downloadable content announcement, Xbox.com has listed the rest of the month's DLC. Week of Jan. 22: Oasis Pack (440 MS points/ $5.50) Don't Look Back in Anger (160 MS points/ $2) Live Forever (160 MS points/ $2) Wonderwall (160 MS Points / $2) Week of Jan. 29: Progressive Pack (440 MS points/ $5.50) Siva - Smashing Pumpkins (160 MS points/ $2) Working Man - Rush *Cover* (160 MS points/ $2) Ten Speed (Of God's Blood and Burial) - Coheed and Cambria *Cover* (160 MS Points / $2) Barring any unforeseen hiccups, we're assuming that the songs will be available on PSN as well. We'll be sure to remind you of the DLC with our Rock Band Weekly posts over the next couple Mondays.[Update: Looks like someone at Microsoft jumped the gun on the announcement a little bit and they've pulled everything that hadn't been announced already (they neglected to update their intro paragraph though). Never fear, former Joystiqer Jared Rea linked us to a screenshot on his blog to cast away any lingering doubts as to the one-time existence of the information. Behold!]
