'Rock Band 4' (ALL) To Get Trio Of Grunge Tracks - Trailer

by Rainier on Jan. 15, 2016 @ 8:33 a.m. PST

Rock Band 4 is the latest installment in the music/rhythm franchise, not only bringing over 2000+ songs from past iterations, but all new tracks, features & modes.

Harmonix is teaming up with Mad Catz to bring Rock Band 4 to PS4 and Xbox One, and brings the franchise to a new generation of consoles, focusing on the features and gameplay that people love, and expanding the franchise in innovative ways that were informed by how fans play and what they want.  

In addition to a killer on-disc soundtrack, Rock Band 4 will support over 2000 tracks released since the 2007 launch of the original Rock Band, accounting for more than 500 of rock music’s most legendary artists.

Players who’ve purchased or downloaded playable tracks on last-generation consoles will be able to download and play those tracks on their new platforms at no additional charge. Hundreds of tracks will be available at launch, with more back catalog music – and new tracks – to be added regularly after launch.

Formed by members of both Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog released “Hunger Strike” in 1991, ultimately peaking at #4 on the US Billboard charts.  With dual lead vocals from Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder, “Hunger Strike” offers great vocal gameplay as well as phenomenal guitar, drum and bass parts.

The early 90’s theme continues with Soundgarden’s hit single, “My Wave”, the band’s 4th single from the band’s megahit album Superunknown.  The last song is “Wicked Garden”, a song never released as a commercial single, yet widely considered a career defining song from Stone Temple Pilots.  Featuring lyrics written by Scott Weiland, “Wicked Garden” brings the driving rhythms, atmospheric guitar play and brooding vocal performance that Stone Temple Pilots is famous for.

These tracks can be purchased individually for $1.99.

  • Soundgarden – My Wave
  • Stone Temple Pilots – Wicked Garden
  • Temple of the Dog – Hunger Strike
