Wii Rock Band 2 Gets 14 New Songs

Tracks from Metallica, KISS, Sonic Youth, and many others are now available on the Wii version of Rock Band 2.

By Dustin Quillen

Today’s round of Rock Band 2 updates for the Wii include tracks from the game’s earliest DLC offerings, as well as a few songs that arrived as recently as two weeks ago on the other consoles. As always, each track will cost you exactly 200 Wii Points, or about two dollars. The full rundown on this week’s newly released DLC follows:

* “Blackened” by Metallica
* “Ride The Lightning Wii Rock Band 2 Gets 14 New Songs” by Metallica
* “My Iron Lung  Wii Rock Band 2 Gets 14 New Songs” by Radiohead
* “Joker & the Thief Wii Rock Band 2 Gets 14 New Songs” by Wolfmother
* “Calling Dr. Love” by KISS
* “Moonage Daydream” by David Bowie
* “Train in Vain” by The Clash
* “Kool Thing” by Sonic Youth
* “Why Do You Love Me” by Garbage
* “3 Dimes Down” by Drive-By Truckers
* “Can?t Let Go” by Lucinda Williams
* “People Got a Lotta Nerve” by Neko Case
* “Time Bomb” by Old 97s
* “Satellite Radio” by Steve Earle

Finally, Wii owners will know the anguish of failing miserably at the drum part in Metallica’s “Blackened”, in addition to the overwhelming sense of awesomeness that accompanies jamming along with your friends to “My Iron Lung” — Rock Band’s sole Radiohead track to date. Maybe it’s just this writer’s personal music bias showing through, but doesn’t anyone else find it borderline offensive that there are twice as many songs from the Naked Brothers Band as there are Radiohead tracks in the Rock Band library?

Boston Tracks Hit Rock Band 2 for the Wii

Blondie and All-American Rejects sing backup for Boston this week on the Wii.

By Dustin Quillen, 02/03/2009

It’s time for another round of Rock Band 2 DLC, Wii owners. This week’s offerings sample even more tracks from Rock Band‘s vast back catalog on the Xbox 360 and PS3, including choice cuts from Boston, Blondie, and the All-American Rejects. All of the following should be up on the in-game store right now, and will cost you the usual 200 Wii Points ($2.00) per song:

More Than a Feeling by Boston (Rock Band 2 DLC Expert drums 5 gold stars)

  • “Hitch a Ride” by Boston
  • “Peace of Mind” by Boston
  • “Smokin’” by Boston
  • “Something About You” by Boston
  • “Hanging on the Telephone” by Blondie
  • “Dirty Little Secret” by All-American Rejects

At this rate, it’s going to take quite some time for Rock Band 2 to catch up on Wii — especially while they’re constantly adding brand new songs to the other consoles just as quickly. Still, Harmonix vows to continue updating the Wii library until they’ve accounted for each of the over 550 songs currently available to Xbox and PS3 owners. The developers have even started hinting at eventually bringing the same, regularly scheduled DLC to the Wii alongside the other versions of the game — a necessary measure if they’re serious about parity across consoles.
