Harmonix and MTV Games announced today that Mötley Crüe will be the first band ever to release a new single via Rock Band. "Saints of Los Angelas" is from the upcoming Mötley Crüe album and will be released April 15th (that's tomorrow for those on the ball on mondays) on Xbox Live Marketplace, and April 17th on the PLAYSTATION Store.

This mega-platinum recording artist will be releasing the song via the mega-platinum video game for only $0.99 (equivalent to 80 Microsoft Points).

With the addition of this track to the Rock Band library, there will be more than 80 tracks available for download in addition to the 58 tracks in the original game. In three months since its release, gamers have purchased more than 6 million downloadable songs for Rock Band since its launch on November 20, 2007.
