He probably heard the rest on the radio...
I mean if your hearing it on a video game that is known by so many other people like guitar hero was.. They have all been heard from an extremely popular source most likely, I dont listen to any bands that are played on the Radio because they are so overplayed. So I say Dragonforce is probably the only acceptable one on there.
I know you probably heard of all of the bands on your list because of the radio and thats probably the only reason you listen to them :/

Rock and metal are completely different genres, and rock has so many sub-genres that to say simply 'rock' is the equivalent of talking about books in general when specifying Shakespeare or any other artist.
