QUEEN, A PERFECT CIRCLE Songs Featured In 'Guitar Hero 5'

May 28, 2009

RollingStone.com reports that tracks from QUEEN & DAVID BOWIE (presumably "Under Pressure"),KINGS OF LEON, SANTANA, SONIC YOUTH and A PERFECT CIRCLE will appear in Activision's Guitar Hero 5 game, which is due September 1. The game will boast 85 brand-new master recordings, and this week Activision is announcing the band lineup in a series of scavenger hunt-like stories; fans who track down all the featured artists can enter a sweepstakes to win five tickets to concerts at a venue of their choice.

According to information posted on the game's official web site, the entire set list will be available for play immediately, and for the first time home rockers will be able to select any combination of instruments — so multiple guitarists, bassists, drummers or vocalists will be able to play at the same time.
