Plenty you'll know, plenty you won't

Activision has announced the full setlist of bands whose songs will be available in Guitar Hero 5. It's pretty diverse, with everything from Gorillaz to Children of Bodom present.

Pity there are no song titles yet, though we've asked Activision for more information on that front. Some we can guess - "Queen & David Bowie" would indicate that "Under Pressure" will be present. What's your favourite from the list, and why? Tell us in the comments.
