In an interview with Giant Bomb Harmonix' founder Alex Rigopulos had some interesting things to say about Rock Band and its future.

"Looking into next year, we're actually considering a fairly fundamental creative reinterpretation of what the Rock Band business is. We're committed to the franchise, but when I think that when we do things with it in the future, it's going to be a pretty dramatic departure from what we've done before."

"You might assume we're going to add saxophone or something along those lines, but no, the kind of direction we're planning on taking Rock Band, the kind of innovation we have in mind, is taking it in a different direction, one that's more suitable to the kind of environment we're in, what people are doing now, what they're interested in playing now, versus, say, 2007."

"It's more than ideas. We are working on it, and we have forward progress. It's an exciting, fresh take on it. I'll leave it at that."

Sounds intriguing. Remains to be seen if Rock Band gets reborn in 2012, but at least we know they are working on it now.
