On June 24th, one of the most influential rock records of the late ‘80s will
get new life as Rock Band game play. The addition of these Pixies songs pushes
Rock Band’s online catalog to more than 200 songs available, a DLC milestone
with over 12 million tracks sold!
Fledgling Black Francises, budding Kim Deals and diehard gamers alike can now
rock out to the original master recordings of one of the Pixies’ most eclectic
and ambitious releases. Upon its release in 1989, Doolittle garnered immediate
critical acclaim and eventually became regarded as one of the most important
alternative rock albums of the 1980s. Doolittle offers endless highlights for
fans and players, including the spaghetti Western-ish flavor of “Silver,” the
biblically-themed “Dead” and the pop savvy hit single “Here Comes Your Man.”
Gamers have been clamoring for these additional fourteen tracks after months of
playing the album’s brilliantly surreal “Wave of Mutilation,” which was included
on the original Rock Band game disc.
The gold-certified Doolittle was the Boston-based band’s second studio album
and first for Elektra Records.
Each track will be available for $1.99 per track (160 Microsoft Points for
Xbox 360) or $18.99 (1520 Microsoft Points for Xbox 360) for the album.
