The latest issue of EGM features Guitar Hero II on the cover and includes an 8 page cover story. Some of the most interesting info is a list of 24 confirmed songs and some bands that wont be making it to this cut. Don’t look forward to bands like U2, Quiet Riot and Led Zepplin this time around. But you can look forward to these tracks:

• Nirvana - Heart-Shaped Box
• Primus - John the Fisherman
• Stone Temple Pilots - Trippin’ on a Hole in a Paper Heart
• Anthrax - Madhouse
• Motley Crue - Shout at the Devil
• The Police - Message in the Bottle
• The Pretenders - Tattooed Love Boys
• Cheap Trick - Surrender
• Spinal Tap - Tonight I’m Going to Rock You Tonight
• Heart - Crazy for You
• Allman Brothers Band - Jessica
• Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird
• Avenged Sevenfold - Beast and the Harlot
• Dick Dale - Misirlou
• Lamb of God - Laid to Rest
• Alice in Chains - Them Bones
• Reverend Horton Heat - Psychobily Freakout
• Black Sabbath - War Pigs
• Kiss - Strutter
• Butthole Surfer - Who Was in My Bed Last Night?
• Van Halen - You Really Got Me
• Guns N’ Roses - Sweet Child O’ Mine
• The Rolling Stones - Can’t You Hear Me Knocking
• Rush - YYZ

That leaves 16 unannounced tracks. 2 of those are almost certainly “Hanger 18″ by Megadeth and “Last Child” by Aerosmith as video airplay of those tracks have already made there way to the internet.
