Full Oasis Album Coming To Guitar Hero World Tour

12:40AM Mike Fahey | English rock band Oasis is gearing up for a large presence in Activision’s Guitar Hero World Tour. Not only is “some Might Say” from their 1995 album (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? shipping on the disc, three tracks from the band’s latest album Dig Out Your Soul will be available for download on November 6th for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Noel Gallagher Says Guitar Hero Is Better Than Arse Goblin Humping

2:00PM Brian Ashcraft | Besides writing songs and playing for British rock band Oasis, Noel Gallagher is a walking quote machine. So, you’d think he would have an opinion on something like Guitar Hero. Well, he does: If it puts little plastic guitars into kids’ hands and fires their imaginations, I think that’s a good thing. It’s harmless fun, innit. I’d rather that genre of video games than somebody getting their fucking head chopped off with a samurai sword while getting fucked by a goblin up the arse with a laser. Do you know what I mean? Um… Noel Gallagher: exclusive interview [Music Radar via CVG] More »

Rock Band Gets Oasis, Officially

6:20AM Mark Wilson | It looks like that Xbox.com leak was accurate, because today Major Nelson is reporting that Oasis DLC is coming to Rock Band (Wonderwall, Live Forever, and Don’t Look Back in Anger). Boy that leak is depressing—the equivalent to spotting your Christmas presents early, only to find that you Christmas presents are a bunch of tracks from a pretentious band that claimed to be the next Beatles but ultimately couldn’t even data some sort of Vegas-inspired Yoko impersonator. If you’ve forgotten that tracks run 160pts and trios will set you back 400pts, we have all that nifty press release info pasted after the jump. More »

Rock Band Gets Oasis, New Rush, Smashing Pumpkins This Month

12:05PM Michael McWhertor | Xbox.com let slip abnormally early the upcoming downloadable content for Harmonix’s Rock Band, giving us a look at the rest of January’s add-on tracks. First up are a trio of tracks from Oasis, “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” “Live Forever,” and “Wonderwall.” They’ll be available the week of January 22nd to Rock Band owners, bringing familial strife and Manchester pop-rock to fans. Gotta start working on my Liam! For the following week, Harmonix brings us the “Progressive Pack”, featuring “Siva” by Smashing Pumpkins, “Working Man” as made famous by Rush, and “Ten Speed (Of God’s Blood and Burial)” as made famous by Coheed and Cambria. The overworked web staff at Xbox.com has since pulled the listings (someone goofed), but those who demand screenshot proof can find it right here.
