He might be a ludicrously absurd clown who spends his time sniffing around child-like young ladies, but I must confess I’m somewhat partial to a bit of the ol’ Marilyn Manson now and again. The circus freak of croaky rock will be making his skeletal way toGuitar Hero IIIas part of the nextdownloadable song packthat hits August 7th.
The pack will feature Manson’sPutting Holes In Happinessas remixed by Nick Zinner, along with Flyleaf’sTinaandAFI’sCircinogen Crush. This pack was originally given to purchasers of theGuitar Hero IIIsoundtrack (a soundtrack of a soundtrack — classy), but will now be available to XBL and PSN users on Thursday.
Shame that there’s not more Manson, really. I might have finally bought someGH IIIDLC if it’d been a full-on Manson pack. Ah well, maybe one dayGuitar Herowill have songs I actually like on there — seriously, we’re due an Electric Light Orchestra song by now.
