_{EA Mobile has released Rock Band on the App Store.}

_{Just like the console version of this Guitar Hero-worrying franchise, you can play the bass, guitar and drums or take the mic and rock the vocal track. Sadly, the iPhone’s actual microphone isn’t involved with the latter, you just have to tap along in time, just like the rest of the instruments.}

_{Rock Band includes 20 classic rock tracks from bands such as Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters and Blink-182. You can check out the full track list here.}

_{However, there’s also an online store that’ll let you buy loads of additional tracks from slightly less obvious band choices. You can even rock out with friends too, over Bluetooth multiplayer. We’ll be checking out this rhythm heavy hitter soon, so stay tuned for the review.}
