Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters and formerly of Nirvana

Three new Nirvana tunes, and four new Foo Fighters tracks will be available for players of Rock Band as of next week, which should make fans of Dave Grohl very happy. These new additions will be available for download via the Rock Band Music Store, and the LEGO Rock Band Music Store on Xbox 360, PS3 and the Wii. New tracks from System of a Down and Bullet for My Valentine will also be available next week for Rock Bank Unplugged on the PSP.

The new Nirvana tracks coincide with the 20th anniversary of the release of the band's debut album, Bleach, in 1989. The Nirvana Bleach Pack includes three classic songs from that album, About a Girl, Blew and School. Each track is available individually for Wii.

Foo Fighters are set to release a new Greatest Hits album on November 3, and on the same day (Nov 5 for PS3) four tracks from this compilation will be available for Rock Band. Two of these songs are actually new, Wheels and Word Forward, and the other two are classic tunes, Best of You and The Pretender. Look for the Foo Fighters Pack 03 or get them one at a time on Wii.

If you're a Rock Band Unplugged player on the PSP, the newly released tracks next week for you will be Toxicity by System of a Down, and Waking the Demon by Bullet for my Valentine. These two will be available from the in game music store and are scheduled for November 5.

If you don't have a copy of Rock Band or Rock Band Unplugged you can play it for free via Gamefly's ten day free trial. If you like it, you can decide to keep it and grab it at a discount. If not, you can just send it back.
