Chuck has got a fever and the only thing that can fix it is more Weezer

That’s right – Weezer is getting more appearances on Rock Band DLC.

I’m personally more a fan of old school Weezer – older than their 2005 Make Believe album – but I can’t say anything about their newest album as I have yet to give it appropriate listening time. Either way, the DLC pack for Weezer tracks will include the over-played “Beverly Hills,” and “Let It All Hang Out” and “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To” from the newer album, Raditude.

Limp Bizkit and Yellowcard make their debut on LEGO Rock Band with “Guys Who Rock!” and “Build a Bridge,” and “Ocean Avenue,” respectively. The Offspring will also have a track on DLC available next week: “A Lot Like Me.”

You can find these tracks next week on the 22nd. Read on for pricing details.
