Pulse Rankdown: 2018 Year End Alternative Chart (WE'RE DONE)

[Zach]

Yup, DEFINITELY expected Four Out of Five to be my first top 10 loss. It remains my favourite track on the album though.

[Web]

when bands make songs on autopilot it's blindingly obvious and usually not pretty

[Leo ✔]

WTF! I thought this could be a top 20 lock >:(

[singingrulebritannia]

I want to say something troll-y like "the only good Rise Against song", but that wouldn't be true even for me

[Red]

#34 kills off a top 10 from five people, although none are top 5s. Six more people lose top 20s, too. Only 16 people placed this in their bottom half. Half of those are bottom 20, however, with three being bottom 10, and one being bottom 5. Two people are clearing their bottom 10 here. This song finished at its lowest position.

[janinho]

[Red]

Speaking of bands somehow just willing their way into (just about) every top half...

Congrats on clearing your bottom tens, Mayman and BlurryKyle . A 98, though...for this?

[maine]

This is run of the mill Foos but not sure what makes this so bad to put at the bottom of your lists.

[Leo ✔]

the wrong one out first

[matteeeb]

The correct Foo’s song is out first/

[Red]

If you've been doing well so far, watch out for #33 - two people are losing their first top 10 rank, with two others also losing a top 10. Ten others ranked this in their top 20. Meanwhile, six people ranked this bottom 20, with two being bottom 10 - but both bottom 10s are bottom 5s. This song also finished at its lowest position.

FACTS

Also....WORST CLOSENESS HERE I COME [2]

[singingrulebritannia]

"Sky" was worse...but I'm happy with this result just because it gives me a P-P-P-PERFECT RANKING!

[fearlessarrow]

Three top 20 losses in a row...

“Four Out of Five” ended up growing on me a lot, it’s super solid.

You all knew I was going to rank Rise Against high. “House On Fire” definitely pales in comparison to their best, but I still really like it.

[matteeeb]

I could see this being “You Worry Me”

[Red]

Personally, I'm shocked this missed the top 25...and, for a while, it looked like it wouldn't miss.

[Zach]

Damn this set of reveals is brutal.

[Web]

damn I don't know how this is offensive enough to be worth a bottom 2 slot

[fearlessarrow]

I can see why people would like this, but personally I wasn’t super into it. I sort of like it but that’s about it for me.

[maine]

really a #100 for this

[.indulgecountry]

Damn, Mylo13 💜 lost his #100 before me, lol.

[Leo ✔]

this is ok, sometimes I really enjoy it but other times is just mediocre.

[Red]

Oh, #32...nothing much, just the highest SD of this entire set (and the 9th highest overall). Three more spotless top 10s take a hit, with four more top 10s, and seven more top 20s. Only 17 bottom half rankers...but eight are bottom 20s, five are bottom 10s, and two are bottom 5s.

This song didn't deserve to be higher than any of those.

[Deleted]

Seriously, what is Scary Love still doing here? There are so many exponentially better songs that have gone out and it continues to stick around.

[House Lannister]

Wow, Mylo. Was wondering what you placed at your 100 and it was Humility. Fascinating.

This was decent, but not quite top tier Gorillaz.

with Judah, AJR, 30STM, lovelytheband, grandson, FOB, P!ATD and Muse being on here, I don't know how this can have a #100 but ok

[Red]

You'd think I'd be more upset about this going out, but, really, I'm content with it doing much better than "Connected", as it deserves to. It being his second best performance isn't too shabby, either.
