Guitar Hero Live, which promises to “literally… give people stage fright,” wants to be your cool older sister who works at the record store. The initial tracklist was just released, and coupled with obvious names like The Rolling Stones, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and, um, Skrillex are indie-approved bands like The War on Drugs, alt-J, and Sleigh Bells.
It’s a pretty decent mix of the mainstream, the slightly underground, and the, um, Skrillex.
