The choice is yours with our latest Rock Band 4 releases, as Fleetwood Mac and Rush teach us about controlling our own destinies.
Returning from the Rock Band 2 soundtrack, “Go Your Own Way” is one of Fleetwood Mac’s biggest hits. The first single off the timeless Rumours, “Go Your Own Way” released ahead of the album and became such a success that the album broke pre-order records for Warner Bros. Placed on the Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll list, the song is an enduring classic. The unconventional drums make for an interesting chart, keeping the verses on a shifting tom pattern. One of rock’s most iconic guitar solos plays near the end of the song, traveling all along the buttons with hammer-on strings.
“Freewill (Vault Edition)”, a Rush icon, comes from the Rock Band VR soundtrack. The second single off the platinum-selling album Permanent Waves, “Freewill (Vault Edition)” is a classic radio staple, being one of Rush’s most-played songs. “Freewill (Vault Edition)” is very difficult on every instrument in Rock Band 4. The bridge is where it really takes off, having a hard drum segment that leads into a bass solo which carries on under a guitar solo. Geddy Lee, not one to slouch, has said the ending of the song is the highest part of his octave range.
Songs can be purchased individually for $1.99 each.
