In addition, bands confirmed to be contributing to the game include:

Another song by Velvet Revolver from Libertad
Concerning other bands, Huang also stated in an interview, "We've got a lot of songs and artists still that we would love to have. In particular, we've been trying to get Metallica, AC/DC, and Led Zeppelin. So hopefully sometime in the near future, my wish and everybody's wish will come true and we can get some of their music in the game."
The Living Colour track, "Cult of Personality" was rerecorded (with a new guitar solo) by the band after the master track could not be located.
Lead developer Alan Flores states in a GameSpot interview that there will be "over 70 songs", (half of them master recordings) on the final soundtrack for the game.
