Guitar Hero II full tracklist

With around a month to go until Guitar Hero II's release on PlayStation 2, RedOctane has announced the 40 tracks licensed to appear in the game - including ones we told you about recently like Monkey Wrench and Killing In The Name Of.

Along with these, GH2 will also boast a range of unlockable songs, although it's not immediately clear whether these will be licensed tracks or more amateur songs (the original Guitar Hero focused on unsigned acts for its unlockables).

Either way, we won't have long to wait until we know, with the game due out in the US on 7th November, with a European release due on the 24th. An Xbox 360 version, announced at X06, is due out in the spring.
