Guitar Hero Gets More Exclusive Tracks

The must-have, quintessential rock music collection keeps getting better as Activision announces two exclusive re-records and a host of new shredable tracks for Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock. Singers, songwriters and rock legends Alice Cooper and The Runaways went back into the studio to re-record “No More Mr. Nice Guy” and “Cherry Bomb,” respectively, for fans to rock out to when the game releases this September.

“I AM a Warrior of Rock! Younger fans getting exposed to true classic rock songs is one of my personal crusades,” said Alice Cooper. “The new audience listening to the classic songs of today, like “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” will hopefully be inspired to write the classic songs of tomorrow.”

In addition to the exclusive re-recorded classics, Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock continues to get back to its rockin’ heritage with yet another 20 tracks picked specifically for their killer riffs and intense solos.
