A list of songs, purported to be the complete and final Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock set list, has hit the Internet. The list contained a number of "unannounced" songs, including tracks by Sonic Youth, the Dead Kennedys, and more. The songs were listed in tiered order, and also included all of the boss battle, encore, and co-op encore tracks.
The list (which originally appeared on the ScoreHero forums) quickly disappeared, and was later called out as a hoax by ScoreHero mods. However, a poster over at Xbox360Forum.com wins the Internet Matlock award for Sunday, September 16. It appears someone's been playing a little Guitar Hero III on their Xbox 360, revealing a number of new tracks, all of which also appeared on this "fake" list. Is that fake, too? The plot! It thickens!
In any case, hit the jump for the full "fake" set list, which also includes White Zombie's "Black Sunshine," a song that has one of the most killer (yet simple) riffs in 90s metal. How metal would that be?

"She Builds Quick Machines" by Velvet Reveolver has been confirmed
Hope this doesn't become Violin Hero
That being said, Eric Johnson FTMFW
Fuck yes. This'll be in constant rotation with "Paint it Black" and "One".
No thank you.
My one complaint is..
NO DETHKLOK.
But the awesomeness of that list makes up for it.
Slash said it would either be "Get out the door" or "let it roll"
Maybe the charts weren't done yet when this guy wrote down the list.
And the lack of Zeppelin and AC/DC is very disappointing.
Fucking. Win.
Also, is that Lou Reed as the final boss?
SRV FTFW.
It's a metal cover of "Devil Went Down to Georgia" actually.
One = epic win.
It's going to be worth playing through all those other lame songs to get to those tiers filled with metally goodness.
I'm so preparing my bucket full of cow blood
Rock band... the only game with MORE F'N COWBELL.
That is all.
Knights of Cydonia is an inspired choice!
