As Music Steve and his gang of naked female friends revealed in what appears to be the latest piece of viral Guitar Hero 5 marketing, Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” is finally coming to the GH franchise, bringing along with it Queen & David Bowie’s “Under Pressure,” Dire Straits’ “Sultans of Swing,” the Raconteurs’ “Steady As She Goes” and 11 more tracks to round out the massive and eclectic GH5 on-disc 85-song track list.

Rolling Stone can confirm that also joining the party are Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire,” Megadeth’s “Sweating Bullets,” Blink-182’s “The Rock Show” and TV on the Radio’s “Wolf Like Me.” But the real coup here is “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” which will join a live version of Nirvana’s “Lithium” in making their music video game debuts. As Rock Daily previously reported, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, Beck, the White Stripes and countless more will also be on the disc when GH5 is released on September 1st.
