Eddie Vedder and the rest of his crew, Pearl Jam, is set to make his way to Rock Band (Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii) via three "nearly-new" tracks this week. Sing along with "Brother", live recordings of "Alive" and "State of Love and Trust", taken from Live, Drop in the Park.

Rock Band will soon come in a shade of Green. With a quick announcement, Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, Tre Cool, and the music of Green Day will be adding classic and new tracks into the Rock Band Music Store. More after the jump.

The new Country Track Pack for Rock Band hits retail next month, and so Harmonix and MTV Games have released a full list of the artists and tracks included in it. Some of the titles here have already been released on the Rock Band Music Store, but more than half of the 21 songs in the track pack are new. The list is available after the jump.

What happens when you take a Rock Band fan, a guitar peripheral, modding skills, plus a pair of an LED emitter and receiver? You get this cool light beam guitar mod. If the strum bar was getting too low-tech for your tastes, then maybe you should make like adderd019 and turn your boring old peripheral into tomorrow's plaything? Video after the jump.

It's an Alice Cooper offering from Rock Band! Announced via a Rock Band community newsletter, Harmonix gave out a list of what you can get in this six-pack Alice Cooper tracks. But apart from the King of Shock Rock, Taking Back Sunday joins him on stage as well.

Guns N' Roses is surely making up for lost time as Harmonix has announced today that the band's Chinese Democracy album will be landing on the Rock Band Music Store very soon. How soon? Would April 14th be soon enough for you? Good, cos that's the date they gave.

Every week we get loads and loads of new tracks for Rock Band, but next week's batch is kinda special because apart from Journey, Pat Benatar, Glasvegas, and Von Bondies adding tracks for the music game, they will be joined by an icon who's arguably more popular than them - a yellow quadrilateral sea-dweller named SpongeBob Squarepants.

Well if you don't have strong legs to kick out a beat on Guitar Hero's drum pedals, Ben Heckendorn (Ben Hecks) has another mod to make life easier for you. Taking a GH: World Tour drum kit's kick pedal, he modified it into something that allows you to simply blow on a tube to register bass kicks. He did this mod as a request from someone who uses a wheelchair.

If you're not enough of a Pearl Jam fan to buy the re-release of their album "Ten," then maybe this will tip the scales. Best Buy is holding a promo that will allow you to download three Rock Band tracks (from Pearl Jam of course) for free with every purchase of the album.

Its not over five thouzaaaaaand!

News broke earlier about how Harmonix wanted to release more than 5,000 songs as DLC for Rock Band by the end of the year. Epic? Yes. Possible? Nuh-uh. Harmonix was contacted to set things straight and guess what? It was a misunderstanding.
