You knew it was coming. We knew it was coming. And now it had arrived. Yes, the sequel to Rock Band (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii) has finally been announced and it looks like we’re going to to be finding out more about it at E3.

In an interview with IGN, Harmonix lead designer Dan Teasdale gave out a few of details about the game including some of the changes the developers plan on implementing to make Rock Band 2 better.

According to Teasdale, one of the problems they found in the previous game involved the random set lists. He hit the nail on the head when he said that “nobody wants to play Green Grass and High Tides in their first random set list.” From what he said it seems that they are going to be doing something about this. Too bad he didn’t give out more details on this.

Teasdale also gave out some hints regarding what bands will be making it to Rock Band 2. While he couldn’t explicitly give out a band list, he did say that gamers can expect to see some of these bands (this is by way of a wish list that IGN had, to which Teasdale replied with: “Not only have you named some of my favorite bands, but you’ve also named some of the bands that are on the Rock Band 2 disc.”):

• Agent Orange
• The Beatles
• Built to Spill
• The Buzzcocks
• Journey
• Led Zeppelin
• Modest Mouse
• Pavement
• The Replacements
• Tool
