This week's downloadable content will feature three of the biggest hits from the biggest band from the 90's, Nirvana. The DLC will complete the Nevermind album tracklisting, even though "Lithium" and "Come As You Are" are actually live versions from famous performances in NIrvana's history. "Lithium" is from the recently released live album, Live at Reading, while "Come As You Are" is from Nirvana's highly-lauded performance on MTV Unplugged. The only original master recording in the Nirvana pack this week is their biggest hit, "Smells Like Teen Spirit".

Accompanying Nirvana's huge hits will be a three pack from 80's hair-metal icons, Night Ranger. While the pack features three of their bigger hits, it is lacking in what possibly could be their biggest hit, "Sister Christian". Also, out of the three songs in the pack, two of the tracks were rerecorded, which could mean crazier solos thrown in. Even if it is a note for note rerecord, the three songs should prove challenging for guitarists, as Night Ranger has been known to shred a good bit in their solos.
