Conchords Rock Band DLC confirmed News

Xbox 360 PlayStation 2 PlayStation 3 Wii
News by Robert Purchese

25 September, 2009

Sub Pop Records has confirmed three Flight of the Conchords songs for Rock Band, just like comedy duo Jermaine Clement and Bret McKenzie promised.

There will be one song from upcoming album "I Told You I Was Freaky", and two from the eponymous "Flight of the Conchords" collection. Sub Pop won't say what the songs are.

Eurogamer's resident FOTC expert Chris Ward expects the songs to be "It's Business Time" and "The Most Beautiful Girl (In the Room)". He hopes "Robots" will replace one of those, but he can't be sure.

Website Team Teambag (via Kotaku) reports that 20th October is the proposed release date for the tracks.

Gratz EG, you spelled Conchords correctly!

I'm going to vouch for Carol Brown from the new album.

Carol Brown, if that's the ex-girlfriends song, is excellent.

Wow. I'm almost shocked this turned out to be real. I want to sit down but I sold my chair, so I...I just stand there.

Too many dicks on the dance floor
Too many dicks on the dance floor
Too many dicks
Too many dicks on the dance floor
Too many dicks
Too many dicks on the dance floor
Too many dicks

[Jemaine]
Going to the party
Sippin' on Bacardi
Wanna meet a hottie
But there's Adam, Steve and Marty
There's Billy, Todd and Tommy
They're on leave from the army
The only boobs I'll see tonight will be made of origami

[Bret]
Tell the players, make it understood
It ain't no good if there's too much wood
Make sure you know before you go
The dance floor bro-hoe ratio
Five to one is a brodeo
Tell Steve and Mike it's time to go
Wait outside all night to find
Twenty dudes in a conga line

Too many dicks on the dance floor
Easy to fix
Too many dicks on the dance floor
Spread out the dicks

[Dave]
Too many dudes
With too many dicks
Too close to my shit
Too hard to meet chicks
I need better odds
More broads, less rods
I came to do battle
Scadaddle with the cattle prods

[Jemaine]
Too many men
Too many boys
Too many misters
Not enough sisters
Too much time on, too many hands
Not enough ladies, too many mans

[Jemaine]
Too many dicks
Too many dongs
Too many schlongs
Now sing this song

What an oddly perfect fit: joke songs from a joke band for a joke game featuring joke instruments. :P

Seriously, FotC are great, I like the show and would absolutely get this DLC if I had Rock Band.
There should be more fun lyrics, and there should be more fun in games, full stop.

Olemak - I'm completely with you. Rock Band are nailing Guitar Hero in terms of DLC. They seem to realise it's a party game, not a hardcore muso's festival of speedmetal. Hurray for GLaDOS, hurray for Spinal Tap and hurray for the Conchords!

For God's sake.

IT'S JEMAINE, NOT JERMAINE.

*sigh*

And what exactly leads your show-off too-cool-for-school Conchords fan to believe it will be those? I'm a Conchords fan, and I predict it will be two different songs, so there.

spudsbuckley - What's with the trolling?

Well he doesn't "get it", see. Plus there's probably some woman in his life he wants to bang but she won't even give him the time of day, and she probably talks about how her and her boyfriend love FOTC, or something like that.

And so the only response he can come up with, being of such limited articulacy and certainly not mature enough to realise that, well, different people like different things, is to slag it off whenever people who do like it want to talk about it.

Basically, he's a twat.

(he'll probably quote that last line and fire it back at me in some hilariously cool way)

Or i could just reiterate how shit and devoid of humour FOTC are because it seems to really bother all of you fanboys.

Musical comedy is utter dross.

I'll let you believe that, but really it oesn't bother me at all! I'm mature enough to know that different people like different things, unlike you! On the contrary, I was having fun speculating on what made you such a tool. Pretty sure I've hit a nerve somewhere :D

First series had better songs, but the actual comedy was weak. Second series was much funnier, but most of the songs were weak. Maybe they can get both right in the third? Probably won't have enough time to write enough new decent songs tho.

Oh and I will most likely buy this RB track pack.
