Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock is the new Guitar Hero game this September, but that doesn't mean the Guitar Hero Online Store is dead. All throughout August, Activision is rocking new tracks for the digital store so gamers can build their song libraries before the next big step in Guitar Hero mythos hits stores on September 28. The setlist for August includes heavy metal acts as well as punk and alternative bands including Megadeth, P.O.D., Sum 41, Weezer, and The Used.

Many of the songs may already be familiar to long-time Guitar Hero veterans. But this is the first time all of these songs are made available with full-instrument support and cross-compatibility for the Band Hero or Guitar Hero franchises. All of the songs will be available for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and the Nintendo Wii. The three song packs will be priced at $5.50 (440 Microsoft Points or 550 Nintendo Points) or available individually for $1.99 (160 MS Points or 200 Wii Points.)
