Gameplay Notes
The lead single from Kings of Leon’s latest studio album, “Waste a Moment” starts off this month’s new DLC. Drummers will have a blast with this tune. Hi-hats were authored to the blue pad / cymbal to allow for proper tom sticking, so keep your hands and feet active throughout the track!”Chop Suey!” by System of a Down makes its way to the Music Library as DLC this week. A legacy song off of the Rock Band 2 disc soundtrack, “Chop Suey!” brings a burst of high energy to your next Rock Band party. It’s also a fan favorite at our Rock Band events, so grab those instruments and rock the house!

Finishing this week’s DLC is a recent hit, “Starboy” by The Weeknd ft. Daft Punk. Daft Punk, iconic electronic musicians, team up with the smooth tones of The Weeknd to make this stellar track. Drums will experience a fair amount of kicks in the tune; head over to Practice Mode to warm up before the show.
