Joining the Classic Rock Track Pack at launch will be “No Rain” by alternative rock group Blind Melon. The breakthrough single off the band’s quadruple platinum, self-titled album reached No. 1 on the U.S. Mainstream Rock and U.S. Modern Rock charts.

Also confirmed for launch week, but as a two-week Xbox 360 exclusive starting October 30, is the R.E.M. Track Pack. This will feature three songs from the band’s Accelerate album: “Horse to Water,” “Man-Sized Wreath” and “Supernatural Superserious.”

Additionally Guitar Hero World Tour players will be able to download original compositions by Ted Nugent and Zakk Wylde which have been designed specifically for Guitar Hero World Tour’s Guitar Duels.

Guitar Hero World Tour is scheduled for release in November for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and PS2.
