Not to be outdone by the recently released Guitar Hero III, Electronic Arts today unveiled the complete 58 song track listing (51 of which are original recordings) for the upcoming Rock Band.

In addition to guitar, Rock Band supports drums, karaoke, and bass/rhythm guitar support as oppossed to just a single or dual guitar setup of Activision's Guitar Hero. Electronic Arts also hopes to have more than 100 additional tracks released over the next year, not to mention complete albums.
