Alanis Morissette's oft-debated misrepresentation of the meaning behind "irony" comes to Rock Band in the form of downloadable content next week, joined by tracks from hip-hoppers Flobot, rockers The Raconteurs, and disco punks Electric Six.

The below tunes hit Xbox 360 and Wii on Tuesday, October 6, with PlayStation 3 availability following Thursday, October 8. Per usual, each song will sell for $2 / 200 Wii Points / 160 Microsoft Points, with the two packs going for $5.50 / 440 MS Points each.

The Raconteurs - "Salute Your Solution"
The Raconteurs - "Steady, As She Goes"

It's a sad release week when the best DLC is Alanis Morissette...

  That would be sad.
  
  Fortunately this week we get the Raconteurs, so that's not a problem.

  The pure awesome ironic cheese that is Electric Six invalidates your argument. Gay Bar will soon be the Rock Band 2 party song of choice at my humble abode.

    Yeah I'm a huge E6 fan but the other two songs are not really my faves. I would have preferred:
    
    - Danger! High Voltage
    - I Buy The Drugs
    - The Band In Hell
    - Rock And Roll Evacuation
    - Down At McDonnelzz
    - When I Get To The Green Building
    - Gay Bar Part 2
    - Formula 409
    - Transatlantic Flight
    - Remote Control (Me)
    
    Any of those
