Guitar Hero 5 To Include Sonic Youth, Elliott Smith Among Others

The former makes sense, but the latter? How many people out there have been clamoring to shred their way through “Between The Bars” or “Waltz #2″? “Needle In The Hay”?

Activision has just announced that Guitar Hero 5 is ready to hit streets in September and Rolling Stone is confirming exclusively that, in conjunction with a slew of other songs and bands soon-to-be revealed via an online scavenger hunt, tracks from Kings of Leon, A Perfect Circle, The Bronx and perennial Heroes Weezer will also be included.

    Uh, it’s not about how many people are clamoring to shred at something. If that were the case, game would be called Popularity Hero 5, or something of that nature. Elliott Smith may not have shredded in the traditional sense of the word, but his guitar work was, at times, VERY complex and intricate, but often unnoticeably so, at least without close inspection.
