The Band:

Simo Piispanen (guitar)
Aku Valmu (bass)
Jaakko Kokkonen (vocals)
Simo-Matti Liimatainen (drums)

Two Guinness World Records:

Guitar Hero World Tour - longest marathon (24h 2min)
Guitar Hero World Tour - highest score for a single track, full band ("Pull me under", 2.7M points)

Grats to the guys and hope to see the records hold for a while, at least :)
