Pantera: The Great Southern Trendkill DLC for Rock Band
Published by: forahobby on Monday, June 21, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Live Marketplace, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,

Harmonix and MTV have finally released something hardcore for Rock Band. Pantera, The Great Southern Trendkill, is now available to download from the Rock Band store for only 1260 MSP. Although it's been available for a few weeks we thought we had better remind our readers here on HQ.


Heavy rock legends Pantera have made their Rock Band debut in a big way, by bringing fan-favorite album, The Great Southern Trendkill, to the Rock Band Music Library. Pantera formed in Texas in 1981 and has been named to VH1’s “100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock” and MTV’s “Top 10 Greatest Heavy Metal Bands of All Time,” and has sold more than 8 million albums in the United States. The Great Southern Trendkill was released in 1996, as the band’s eighth studio album, reached No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200 and was declared platinum in August 2004. “Floods,” featured on The Great Southern Trendkill, contains a guitar solo that Guitar World voted its 15th Greatest Guitar Solo of All-Time.

Pantera released a greatest hits collection in March 2001, titled 1990-2000: A Decade of Domination, which is available exclusively at Walmart and contains 10 remastered tracks. Additionally, former Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul is set to release an album called Stampede from Hellyeah, his collaboration with members of Mudvayne, Damageplan and Nothingface, in July.

The tracks include:

“The Great Southern Trendkill”
“War Nerve”
“Drag the Waters”
“10’s”
“13 Steps to Nowhere”
“Suicide Note Pt. II”
“Living Through Me (Hell’s Wrath)
“Floods”
“The Underground in America”
“(Reprise) Sandblasted Skin”

Please note the album can also be purchased as individual tracks. The whole album is up for 1260 MS points.

Price: 1260 Microsoft Points
