The upcoming encore to the Guitar Hero franchise has had its first tracklist revealed.

Artists including The Rolling Stones, The Killers, Ed Sheeran and Skrillex had been previously announced to be making an appearance in Guitar Hero Live, but hadn’t had any tracks detailed.

They will be joined by a whole host of new artists, ranging from metal heavyweights like Pantera and Judas Priest to up-and-coming art-rock group Alt-J and funk-rock staple Red Hot Chili Peppers.
