I was surprised - no, shocked - to witness this song gaining airplay on my local rawk station, KQRC. If it isn't a generic, meat-and-potatoes cliched homage to 1978 metal, then it likely isn't going anywhere near this station unless it's getting rotated by the great Lou Brutus. Quite a refresher to hear "Eyesore" in between "I Am The Bullgod" (in its 8136368th spin) and "T.N.T." (in its 12351835812351st spin).

Considering my Alternative station has had it in heavy rotation since the end of summer, I'm surprised it's taken this long to blow up on Active and get started on Alt.

What's shocking is that a song like this isn't even in the Top 50 yet on Alternative, especially since my Alternative station has had this in regular rotation for 6 months now.

I don't know if that surprises me. KPNT tends to include a lot of active rock songs in its playlist, and alternative hasn't exactly been kind to new alt-metal sounding bands. I think "Eyesore" will have to approach the top 10 on active to chart in the top 50 on alternative and and actually reach the top 10 on active to have a good shot at the top 40 on alternative.

Yeah, I guess it is newer indie/Alternative acts that are getting the nationwide airplay, as active rock is getting phased out. It's a shame that nobody bothers to discriminate much and the more intellectual active rock bands get the shaft too. I wish KPNT would give even half the spins "Eyesore" is getting over to "1901," which the flagship station still hasn't touched. A #4 song on the format and my station isn't playing it. Unbelievable.

not necessarily, look at Five Finger Death Punch and Adelitas Way. They never touched the alt chart

adelitas way's Invincible was a great single, unfortunately it missed alt chart
i liked all of five finger death punch singles so far, but i don't know why, they seem to face a wall, when they are just getting in the top 10 (3 of their singles found similar success at with peak positions #8 and #9) i'm not sure but i think that "hard to see" peaked somewhere on alt chart

^It's probably because they're heavy enough that a lot of stations limit 55DP to nighttime only rotation. They're also new enough that the really bad active rock stations probably won't add 55DP because they're not established enough. I'm not a big fan of the band, but any station that isn't adding them is completely oblivious to how well-liked they are by the active rock crowd.

Red Right Return is incredible, easily one of my favorite albums of the past 2 years! I'm so stoked that this has climbed into the top 15 and still not slowing down!!

top 50 in Alternative 51 49 JANUS Eyesore 141 129 12 0.67 far out! Seamus McFly: What was the meaning of that? Maggie McFly: It was right in front of him! Seamus McFly: Aye. Nevertheless, I agree.
