22 new songs have been revealed for the upcoming Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock.

What’s notable about this update is that two songs have been re-recorded exclusively for the game, with No More Mr. Nice Guy” by Alice Cooper and “Cherry Bomb” by The Runaways being the tracks in question. Unlike some rockstars in the past, Alice Cooper not only doesn’t have a problem with Guitar Hero, but seems to revel in the fact about being featured in the upcoming Warriors of Rock:

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. 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.”
