Are you thirsting for more tracks to rock out on? Well if you’re a Rock Band player, you know that there’ll be no shortage of DLC for some time. What we generally don’t know is what tracks will be released. Thankfully OXM has gotten the scoop on March’s releases. Hit the jump for the [...]

It’s a well-guarded secret that I play Guitar Hero and Rock Band. The previous statement was, in fact, a lie. I play them quite often (Rock Band more than Guitar Hero these days) and find myself buying new downloadable tracks on a regular basis.
