This has been another watershed week for us! With the release of “Learn to Live” by Architects on Saturday evening, we’ve officially become the first Rock Band Network authoring group to break the 200-songs-released threshold — nearly twice as many as our nearest competitor. With more coming through the gates on a daily basis, we’re not showing any signs of slowing any time soon!

On top of that, we’ve finally completed and released the debut EP from RBN’s prog rock darlings Children of Nova; you can now play the full “The Complexity of Light” six-song mini-album in its entirety.

With additional songs released this week by noteworthy groups such as Chiodos, Fake Problems, of Montreal and more, you’ll definitely want to check out all of what’s on offer!

The full release schedule, including links and preview clips, is after the jump.

Over the past week, we’ve had a massive NINETEEN new songs added to the store on Xbox 360. This is our biggest week to date since the launch of the Rock Band Network itself, back in March of 2010. This flood of new releases includes several returning artists from that week, no less.

The band that put symphonic metal on the RBN map, Amberian Dawn, is back with three new tracks from their first two albums; “Lullaby”, “Morning Star”, and “Sunrise”. And the highly requested progressive rockers from California, Children of Nova, have two more new songs available from their debut EP The Complexity of Light, “The Fall of Aphonia” and “We Collide”. On top of that, a whopping five tracks from the Bullet Tooth stable of artists have been released this week, including tracks from artists such as Affiance, Memphis May Fire, and Victory in Numbers. And finally, top-selling RBN artists Attack Attack! (of “Stick Stickly” fame) are back with their third single for the Network, the amusingly-titled “Sexual Man Chocolate”.

PS3 owners have four songs from our back catalogue to look forward to this week, with hits by The Agonist, Children of Nova, Iron and Wine, and Sunny Day Real Estate all making the jump today. And Wii owners, unfortunately this is the last week of RBN content on your system, but it’s going out with a bang, with tracks by Cetan Clawson & the Soul Side and Firewind!

The full release schedule for all three systems, including links and preview clips, is after the jump.
