SpongeBob makes digital debut next week in Rock Band

March 27  

What’s in store next week for Rock Band DLC?  You’ll be pleased to find seven tunes ranging from classic rockers Pat Benatar and Journey to the giggling, high pitched childish songs from everyone’s favorite Krusty Krab fry cook.

I did a double take as well, but indeed this is no April fools joke, in addition to the usual, come three tracks from the SpongeBob SquarePants television show highlighted by the annoyingly catchy “Best Day Ever.”  Furthermore, the SpongeBob SquarePants Pack 01 ominously is a harbinger of more to come from the yellow sponge.

Journey – Don’t Stop Believing
Pat Benatar
– “Heartbreaker”
Glasvegas – “Geraldine”
Von Bondies – “C’mon C’mon”
SpongeBob SquarePants – “I Can’t Keep My Eyes Off of You”
SpongeBob SquarePants – “The Best Day Ever”
SpongeBob SquarePants - “Where’s Gary?”

The Naked Brothers, Miranda Cosgrove and now SpongeBob? Rock Band hits every demographic, clearly helping them surpass $1 billion in total sales this week.

The Pat Benatar, Glasvegas, and Von Bondies tunes will run you $1.99/160MS Points each and the SpongeBob tracks are individually priced at a reduced rate of $.99/80MS Points or pick up the Pack 01 for $2.99/240 MS Points.

Songs will be available on Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network next Tuesday and Thursday respectively.
