Activision has laid out an October filled with filled with rock—a Rocktober, if you will—with tracks coming to Guitar Hero from Queens of the Stone Age, Wolfmother, Billy Squier, and more.

Guitar Hero gets three new tracks every Thursday in October, kicking things off on the 5th with the Queens of the Stone Age track pack, consisting of “Mexicola”, “Avon” and “How to Handle a Rope.” Then we go backwards a bit on the 8th, with “The Stroke”, “Everybody Wants You”, and “When She Comes To Me” making up the three songs in the Billy Squier track pack. October 15th sees the last of this month’s artist-specific packs, with Wolfmother’s “Pilgrim”, “California Queen” and “Cosmic Egg” making their way onto the Guitar Hero store.

The last two Thursday’s of the month are dedicated to Classic Rock and All Hallows’ Eve, with tracks from GWAR, The J. Geils Band, The Misfits, Peter Frampton, Triumph, and Marilyn Manson. I’ll let you folks figure out which artist belongs to which track pack, or you could just cheat and scroll down.
