Conchords 3-Pack coming to Rock Band
Posted on September 22nd, 2009 4 commentsDavid over at Joystiq has noted that during a red-carpet interview with Bret and Jermaine of Flight of the Conchords, the pair confirmed that a trio of their folk-inspired tracks will be heading to Rock Band before year’s end. There was no hint of a release date or price, but we can assume standard 3-pack rules will apply.
Flight of the Conchords had a breakout year in 2007 with the premiere of their very own show on HBO, a gold selling debut record, and a sold out North American tour. I’ve been a huge fan since their original HBO show aired and the rest of the world first learned of their comical and satirical style of songwriting. There are rumors that a new album could appear before Christmas, and the duo have been further rumored to be appearing together in their own movie in 2010.
I’m hopeful that the tracks that are selected are not their more recent, electronic dance-style numbers, but instead are chosen from previous albums which were far more traditional. This is a better fit for the standard four-instrument setup that we are all familiar with. No doubt that whatever tracks are featured, they will quickly become favorites at the next Rock Band Party.

I know of the show, but have never seen it. I’m a cheap skate when it comes to subscription cable stations. So, their music is all new to me.
