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.

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.
