Because why not.
Battle Born: B+ Shepherd of Fire: B+ Heaven Knows: C- Take Out the Gunman: A- Guilty All the Same: A- Torn to Pieces: C+ Painkiller: B+ Words as Weapons: A- 1000hp: B+ This Is the Time: B+ Until It's Gone: B+ F**ked Up World: C- World on Fire: B+ Edge of a Revolution: B
Verdict: Much better than the Alternative #1s we've had this year. Although, the same could be said for 2013 and some of 2012 as well.

I've only liked 6 of them, with 3 of those being amazing. The rest of those songs are just fly-up-the-chart lazy lead singles from former glory bands, with Pop Evil and FFDP thrown into the mix(with not bad not good singles) and of course the cream of the shit, Pretty Worthless.

Alt having less #1's helps cause I like most of the songs that hit #1. This fits my notion that Alt has more good songs than Active but Active's good songs are better.

Do I Wanna Know: A Come With Me Now: A- The Walker: A- Fever: B- I Wanna Get Better: B+ Dangerous: A+ Riptide: C Stolen Dance (really, first one to write it correctly?): A+
there hasn't been an Alt #1 that I've disliked this year, though Fever, I Wanna Get Better and Riptide have burned out on me a little bit. Maybe they'll recover in the future.

Alt - 75% Active - 43%
Ouch, though it's worth noting that with the exception of Fever, Alt #1's have been new artists while Active has been mainly dominated by veteran acts. As for the Top 40s of each chart:
Active: 451 (55%) 22/40 Alt: 448 (54.6%) 19/40

If I were to find the avg rating, it'd probably look something like this
Do I Wanna Know: B Come With Me Now: B+ The Walker: B- Fever: B- I Wanna Get Better: B- Dangerous: B+ Riptide: B- Stolen Chance: B

Lordef†onesMan, you're probably the only guy on all of Pulse who thinks 1000HP is better than Do I Wanna Know AND Dangerous. And better than all the alt #1s of the year...that is just so...unfortunate

I actually like "1000hp". I'd much rather get energized to that than just sit around listening to "Stolen Dance".

In El Salvador, it's death by firing squad. In Canada, it's deportation to Sunrise, FLorida, where you'll be sentenced to attending every Florida Panthers game (Sorry, American Idiot) for the rest of your life. That's worse than all of the above.
