High demand prompts band to digitally release iPhone game tracks

Weezer are set to digitally release six Christmas songs that were originally recorded for the recently-released iPhone app 'Tap Tap Revenge Christmas With Weezer'.

The band recorded the tracks especially for the app, but demand was so great from non-iPhone users that they decided to make the songs available for purchase online.

The songs recorded are 'We Wish You A Merry Christmas', 'Silent Night', 'O Holy Night', 'First Noel', 'Hark The Herald Angels Sing' and 'O Come, All Ye Faithful', along with two bonus tracks.

Weezer recently completed a North American tour in support of their sixth album 'Weezer' (also known as 'The Red Album').
