Best Drum Songs In Order of Awesomeness

#3 - Avenged Sevenfold - Sheppard of Fire

Verdict: Download All 3 of these songs!

"[UPDATE] Following the publication of this story, we spoke with Harmonix PR manager Nick Chester about the news. First, we asked why Harmonix is reviving DLC now, after such an extended period of time off.

"We had an exciting opportunity to add new content to the already-massive Rock Band library with a song from Arctic Monkeys--a band that's never been in a Rock Band title before!--as well as new music from fan favorites Avenged Sevenfold and Foo Fighters," Chester said. "We couldn't pass it up. Also, we wanted to see if we could still do it. Turns out we can. It's sort of like riding a bike."

We also wondered if Rock Band DLC coming back online might mean more add-on tracks are coming.

"Let's not get ahead of ourselves," he said.

The original story is below.

Rock Band developer Harmonix has not released a new DLC track in 21 months, but that's going to change tomorrow. The Cambridge, Mass. developer on Monday announced that new DLC songs from Avenged Sevenfold, Arctic Monkeys and Foo Fighters will be available tomorrow, January 13.

The songs, listed below, can be purchased for $2 each from the Rock Band Music Store, and are compatible with Rock Band 3 and Rock Band Blitz. PlayStation 3 owners in Europe will need to wait the longest to get the new DLC, as it won't arrive there until January 21.

Rock Band January 13 DLC:

Avenged Sevenfold -- "Shepherd Of Fire" ($2)
Arctic Monkeys -- "R U Mine?" ($2)
Foo Fighters -- "Something From Nothing" ($2)
The three new tracks will add to Rock Band's already-massive library of songs, which features more than 3,500 tracks from more than 1,400 artists.

After 275 straight weeks of new DLC and 130 million songs downloaded, Harmonix originally ended Rock Band DLC support in April 2013.

So why is Harmonix reviving Rock Band DLC now? And do they plan to offer more DLC tracks in the weeks and months ahead? Unfortunately, Harmonix didn't say. We've reached out to the company for clarification, and will update this post with anything we hear back.

Looking forward, Harmonix has been open in discussing plans, albeit faroff plans, for Rock Band 4." - Gamespot

Hey everybody, what is up i don't know if you saw the announcement, but Harmonix has announced that they are releasing new DLC for Rock Band. It's the first DLC that's going to be released since April of 2013 and it's taken everybody by shock. A lot of people are wondering what this means for the franchise. Are we going to see more DLC? Are we going to see another rock band  game announced and that's what i want to talk about today. So they released three new songs that will be coming out this morning. 

Arctic Monkeys - R U Mine?
Foo Fighters - Something From Nothing
 and Avenged Sevenfold - Sheppard of Fire 

and I am going to be downloading all the songs because I want to show my love and support for Harmonix. I think if you read the Facebook post Harmonix has said they aren't going to be releasing weekly DLC but they do have a few tricks up their rock band sleeves so I am assuming maybe we'll see DLC released on a similar schedule to what guitar hero was doing where they were releasing a couple track packs a month or maybe one per month and then maybe they are seeing interest to see whether people want a new Rock Band game because  they did release a survey couple months ago asking people's interest in terms of a new Rock Band game for the current gen consoles as well as the next gen consoles. And I think we will probably  be seeing another Rock Band being announced for the PS4, Xbox One and maybe the current gen consoles as well. But i think this is an exciting development. And I think too this whole time I am still playing Rock Band because of the customscreators. Those guys create new content every week it's kept the game alive for me and it's given me access to bands i wouldn't normally see in Rock Band. So if you guys don't know about it, check the link down below and you'll see some really cool stuff. I'd love to know your guys opinion. What do you think the future holds for Rock Band.
