EDIT: Changed songs around to better fit the difficulties. Also swapped Mosquito Song for Little Sister. Added links to videos of some note charts. Replaced "Another One Bites the Dust" - Queen with "Flavor of the Weak" - American Hi-Fi.

Drunkship of Lanterns would be best for the Mars Volta.quiglythegreat

I can't say I've ever heard that one. I'll have to get it soon.

Stairway to Heaven" - Led Zeppelin (Encore)

With the exceptions of these songs, it's a pretty good list.

And unless you didn't make this, Holy Mountains has been done.

Whaaaaa!? No Stairway!?

Why don't they make a Guitar Hero with Heavy and Hardcore songs? From Hardcore Punk to Grindcore (really extreme).

Also, maybe "Just", "My Iron Lung", or "The Bends" by Radiohead? I'd choose "Fake Plastic Trees", but it's not exactly a guitar song.

And "Plug In Baby" by Muse. 

oh, and in-a-gadda-da-vida does not belong anywhere near guitar hero. Who honestly wants to play the same lick for 21 minutes?Eadara

2. You don't play the riff over and over again. :|

Stairway is actually pretty easy to play, it belongs as an encore of set 4 or 5Eadara

Yeah... Seeing as how I can play it on the guitar, it really isn't that hard. :P I only put it there because it definitely deserves to finish off the game. Though all 4 other songs probably are harder. :)

Right, plus I wasn't referring to the full 17 minute song. There's a shortened radio version, too that's mainly guitar.

Layla- Eric Clapton

Only want I really want on Guitar Hero III.

Just reread some of it.

"Don't Fear the Reaper" - Blue Oyster Cult (Encore)

That needs a cowbell guy to come out, just for that song.

lol or the note track would just be a ton of yellow notes synced to the cowbell. :P

Personally I'd rather see Hey Jude as a Beatles song as well, or maybe Revolution, as an opener.Quack_Attack

put some dream theater in there and we're talkin

something like Under a Glass Moon would do juuuuust nice 

[QUOTE="Quack_Attack"]Personally I'd rather see Hey Jude as a Beatles song as well, or maybe Revolution, as an opener.zakkro

CLAPTON FTW!

mine would've inlcuded LoG,unearth, old metallica, slayer, trivium, chimaira, gojira, and sepultura but i doubt any of those will make it into gh3.LoG-Sacrament

If they had those bands on the next one i would reserve it right now

The Stairway to Heaven solo isn't really hard, so I don't think it should even be on the list (neither should Hotel California).  You should move Layla up to the last section.

The live version of Hotel California(from their Hell Freezes Over Tour), would be more than difficult.

Iron Maiden- Number of the Beast, ot Fear of the Dark

Pink Floyd, Hey You, {Comfortably Numb(dont know how beginning woulf work out??)}

No sabbath? what about Motorhead?

EDIT: Btw, Working Man would be sweet on GTR HERO III

I'm pretty sure the live version is the only version I have, so I'd say use that because the guitar definitely is more difficult.

For Alice in Chains-Rain When I Die

Metallica-Motorbreath or The Four Horsemen

I think thats an awsome list, except fr the minor fact that Stairway to heaven is 90% Acoustic. but everything else is perfecto.

Pretty good, but SOAD needs to be taken out. Plus, a Mars Volta song has no place on the Face-Melters list. Actually, "Voodoo Child" needs to be there. I also think "Master of Puppets" needs to replace "Enter Sandman" and be replaced in the Face-Melters catagory with "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". Remember, the Face-Melter songs have to be Face-Melters for them to be good.

 There's some problems with your criticism:

1. You probably only say take SOAD out because you dislike them. I don't like them, either, but there's no denying that they're good.

 2. Voodo Child isn't that hard.

3. Meccamputechture is very, very hard.

But I may change the Metallica song. :)

Due to circumstances beyond my control I'm behind in the bills....and I spent much money last month.
