Hey gang,

Next week's DLC contains 4 singles: 2 from P.O.D. and 1 track each from Erasure and Frankie Goes to Hollywood, both brand new entries to the RB library! A nice mix of variety and, of course, the all important addition of "Relax". Enjoy!

Available on Xbox 360, Wii and PlayStation®3 system (July 12*):

• Erasure – “A Little Respect”
• Frankie Goes to Hollywood – “Relax (Come Fighting)”
• P.O.D. – “Boom” X
• P.O.D. – “Youth of the Nation”

These tracks will be available for purchase as individual tracks on Xbox 360, PlayStation®3 system and Wii. Tracks marked with “X” will include Pro Guitar and Pro Bass expansions for $0.99 per song.

*Tracks are expected to release July 13th in Sony Europe

Will the forums go BOOM over this announcement, or will everybody just relax? More importantly, will this DLC get a little respect from the youth of the nation? Discuss!

I will probably get Erasure and Frankie Goes to Hollywood. I mean, why not?

[kunde]

Relax!

[RockBandand24Fanatic]

Meh week, not bad, just really small. Hopefully a big pack from an artist will come soon, like a best of 12 pack, we've had one very summer, hopefully HMX will keep that tradition going.

[MourganDespana]

Any week where you get 3 out of 4, is a great week. POD and Frankie, welcome to my song list,

[fcmlefty]

Definitely will pick up the 2 POD songs. Will have to see if the wife wants FGTH. Will pass on Erasure. Will give my wallet a bit of a break before Soundgarden next week.

GOSH DARNIT WE GOT OUR HOPES UP FOR FREAKING NOTHING D':

But, POD is a really cool surprise and Relax is a must-buy. Never heard A Little Respect before, but it sounds really good.

[Deeznutzs27]

Thank god for Soundgarden next week..

ERASURE!!

A longtime favorite of mine. "The Innocents" is IMHO one of the best albums ever released. So purchased on Tues. I see Relax is an alternate version, so I will have to listen to it before I buy.

Again, however, ERASURE!!! OMG!!
