I've been listening to this song on repeat for about a week. Unfortunately, I haven't found the other songs on the album (Singing Bones) much to my pleasure.

I'm actually working on tabbing out the bass part so that some people over at Customs Forge can add it to the existing CDLC for Rocksmith.

Yeah I had forgotten how addicted I was to this song when I first heard it on True Detective. About to give the rest of the album a try on Google Play.

What's Rocksmith?

Rocksmith is a video game that attempts to "teach" you how to play guitar/bass. I can't say much on the results (it apparently varies from person to person), but it is fun to play.

Here's a video of the guitar:

Here's a bass video:

(obviously not the same song, sorry).

I have issues with it detecting the low E on my bass, but apparently that's not an isolated thing.

That's awesome! The ability to program your favorite songs to play with is a huge draw. I might have to look into this.

Well, "ability" is probably the wrong word. It's definitely not part of the core game - you need to use RSInjector - the legality is a bit of a grey area (or probably not so grey, as they tend to be).
