Sex Pistols Reunite For Guitar Hero III
1up is reporting that the Sex Pistols are getting the band back together for at least one recording session. They're laying down a master track for the upcoming Guitar Hero III, for the song 'Anarchy in the U.K.'. "Original members John Lydon (Johnny Rotten), Steve Jones, and Paul Cook hit the studio together for the first time in 30 years, hooking up with original producer Chris Thomas to maintain the feel of the recording. Additionally, the original analog sound desk, built in 1969 for producer George Martin at Air Studios in London, was utilized for aural authenticity."
Even the "amazing powers of the cell processor" can't quite master Necromancy.
Witty Comment Here
As a regular poster on a really active punk ban forum, I have a good guess as to what that community will say about all this.
One half will flame "Zomg sellouts" and the other half will think to themselves "with next weeks allowance I can play it on Mom and Dads flatscreen..."
Who said that they had to be reunited in LIFE?
*eyes McCartney and Ringo ominously*
I think that most of their fans will be pleased, even if they did do this just for the money.
All but one fan, I suspect. One of my hardcore punk friends was talking about disbanded, classic punk bands reuniting for one final go. He said that without Sid, the Sex Pistols would never reform. He was so sure of himself, that he even agreed to stick a watchmaker's screwdriver into his urethra.....
Digging up Sid Vicious just to make a Computer Game.
This kind of thing just shouldn't be allowed...
If I had do die of a 'heroine' overdose - I hope it's the bionic woman. With the top half of the outfit still on. Spelling Nazi out...
