New Rock Band Trend, New Tracks With Pre-Orders

By Joe Haygood | May 5, 2008

The guys at Evil Avatar, had a great story over the weekend that talked about Best Buy offering exclusive Rock Band tracks from the upcoming Disturbed album with a pre-order.  At first I did not think all that much of it, but the more I thought about it, I started to realize how great this idea could be for up and coming artists.

Think about it, you are an up and coming band and you want to reach the masses.  Just talk to the guys at Harmonix and offer a track or two for free and link it to a pre-order.  Only speaking for myself, I have become a Rock Band DLC whore, and have purchased almost every song offered, and I will buy pretty much everything that is out there.  This initiative would give people more reasons to listen to a new artist. If Iyou knew you could get a code for Rock Band tracks free with a pre-order.  Not sure how it will take off, but I have to say that I am down with it.  Bring us more content.
