Activision appears to be picking up the steam regarding track announcements for Guitar Hero World Tour, because for the second day in a row they are revealing new songs for the game. Joining the song list this time around are re-recorded versions of MC5’s “Kick Out the Jams”, Motorhead’s “Overkill”, and The Sex Pistols’ “Pretty Vacant”.
“We set out to deliver a soundtrack for Guitar Hero that envelopes as many genres, styles and artists as possible without limiting scope,” said Tim Riley, Vice President of Music Affairs for Activision Blizzard. “When highly respected artists such as MC5’s Wayne Kramer, Motorhead and The Sex Pistols are willing to go back into the recording studio to re-record their music exclusively for the game, the fans win by getting a unique experience of old yet new legendary sounds.”
As just mentioned, this is hot off of the heels of The Smashing Pumpkins announcement yesterday. Let’s hope the announcements continue at this pace.
