Speculation: Something Rancid in Rocksmith next week

Hello Rocksmith fans!

Seems like @DanAmrich isn’t ready to confirm that we are right about next week’s DLC, but I am pretty confident that this:

equals this!

Yeah, looks like the bass solo from Rancid’s Maxwell Murder!

Which also means that I was right (again) about the newsletter hint pointing towards Ruby Soho!

What other songs am I hoping make it into the Rancid song pack?

Hyena may be one of the first punk videos I ever saw when I was like 13 years old staying up late watching The Wedge on MuchMusic… Pretty sure I wasn’t supposed to be awake, take that parents!

With 5.7 million+ views on YouTube Timebomb is pretty much a lock to be in… It’s also a great song and would give some much needed ska flavour to the Rocksmith library!

I remember I was so excited when Salvation got put into Guitar Hero II, even if it was a cover…


Are you excited for a truly punk band to be added to Rocksmith 2014? I’m sure bassists are, but if you aren’t let us know!

Just kiddin’. Please don’t hit me with a barb wire wrapped wiffle ball bat.

Oh yeah and I agree with Simon. I do think punk tunes should be cheaper though, since most songs are 25 seconds long and involve little to no recognizeable music…teenagers from mars…blah blah blah we don’t care…20 eyes in my sooooup…

I am hoping noone reads this thread now that the new one is out. I just want to say how beautiful and thoughtful the lyrics are in these wonderful heartwarming tunes. Rancid is such a charming bunch of gentlemen. I think that Gentlemen’s Warehouse should get them to do some ads. Really getting into that-a funkae muzak.

Since it is a 4 pack I strongly believe there is most likely a 5th song tied up in the licensing process,

Gilbert Neck Jig

Here’s hoping “Salvation” makes it.

Punk is so horribly under-represented in Rocksmith. To me, it’s the genre that told the world that it’s ok to just pick up the guitar and pound out something fast and fun. You don’t have to be brilliant, just pick it up and have fun with it. To me, that’s a philosophy that Rocksmith can encourage. Would definitely love to see some of the old punk/hardcore stuff too – Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys, Bad Brains, Black Flag – but this is definitely a good start. I’ll be in for the full pack, regardless of the songs.

Is anyone else having trouble downloading def lep-hysteria on Xbox one? The rest of the pack worked just not def lep.

BlueCollarNINJA

Thank u sir..I thought my shizz was f’d up!!

BlueCollarNINJA

All you M Effers saying Rancid isn’t punk…yeah no shit!! I’m sure if you ask them they would even tell you they’re not punk. If anything they’re a punk-reggae so-cal type band, i.e. Sublime, No Doubt..

Punk was 70’s & 80’s not 90’s no punk fans listen to this embaressing nonesence crap! FFS RS I am beginning to get embarrassed to own this software

Chris

like anyone can listed to dead kennedys or black flag for more than 10 minutes at a time. Punk was about attitude in the early days but in the 90s it actually included people who could write songs and inspired music instead of just 2 note go f society anthems

dallas dave

I listened to punk back then and yes this is true punk. Listen to their lyrics! Ditto for pennywise.

Bluecharm71

Oh yeah – going by the current theme of cataclysmic crap I predict next week seen its winter etc -Dysney Frozen – might as well can’t get any worse.

BlueCollarNINJA

Ohhhh Hell Yeah!! Hopefully they toss in transplants-diamonds and guns!! p.s. This is the most vicious speculation comments page ever.

Tony Tunes

since you got the inside goods . . . did Roots make it?

dabaumtravis

This is my first “must-have” since Primus and QotSA

William Burroughs

In my day a punk was someone who took it in the ass.

It would be better news of it was a no pack!!

YYZ

So Hardcore!

pluggyboy

Strange that it’s 4 instead of 5, but it’s better than 3 – lol.

This will be a daily play for me for now on!

Matt

Been waiting so long for this!!!!

Bluecharm

I can’t understand what they are singing – is it in English ? Another ??? dlc week (IMO)
