Rock Band: The
Jimi Hendrix Experience – Axis : Bold As Love
It should probably
be a law that when you’re setting yourself up to play a game such as
Rock Band, that you’ve listened to the records of people such as Jimi
Hendrix, but for those who aren’t accustomed to the history of rock
music, Hendrix was one of the greatest and most influential guitarists
and musicians not only of his generation, but of all time.
Now that the
obvious has been stated, the latest DLC for Rock Band has been revealed
as The Jimi Hendrix Experiences second album, Axis : Bold As Love, and
needless to say, it’s a guitarists nirvana. As Hendrix songs are more
structured around a rhythm and blues plucking of strings compared to the
modern day strumming, the timing on the tracks can be a little hard to
get your head around at first, but eventually your be as accustom to it
as Bo Diddly.
All the tracks from
the original release are here, aside from the ‘Exp’ track, but as a
replacement for the psychedelic opener, we have been given the title
track from the recently released ‘Valley Of The Neptunes’.
With the majority
of the tracks sitting it either 4 or 5 on the difficulty scale, it’s
safe to say that they aren’t for the weak of heart, but don’t let that
deter you, this pack is the best training pack that is available on Rock
Band, if you can master ‘One Rainy Wish’, ‘Wait Until Tomorrow’ or ‘You
Got Me Floatin’, then you can virtually master any track that will ever
be produced on Rock Band. The pack is a true challenge and at 1600
points isn’t bad value, so if you consider yourself a master of the
opus, then get this back and separate the boys from the men.
