A bit better than expected from Ivan Moody and co. but this still has some of the wangst/crybaby tropes they often apply nowadays which is still a no

Cool to see Jakob get another hit this late in his career but this was pretty generic imo

This probably won't still be in my top half when the AAA rankdown gives us the full top 100

Likewise, cool to see Mike finally get a solo hit, but this wasn't really it for me.

I would say this three times, but this eventually grew on me late in its chart run. Though me putting this top half may have been a bit too much

I will do this Doc style. 1) Predict what will be in the top 10. hopefully Cool 80's retro sounding songs ,and songs with real instruments. 2) Predict what will the bottom 15. Hopefully anything with weird clicking sounds ,autotune ,and songs that don't sound like rock music. 3) Highest SDs? Lowest SDs? HD= something with "rattlesnake" Hi-hats, and autotune LD= Something 80's sounding or very melodic. 4) Imagine Dragons, MGK and twenty one pilots are the only artists with multiple songs in the game. Which of their respective songs will perform better? The wanna be 80's sounding songs. 5) Last year, no songs from the active rock batch made the top 10. Will this repeat again this year? Not if I can help it. shut up boomer Did I offend you? I don't recall making a comment about you. If I did please point it out. If I like something I praise it. If I don't I shoot it down. Haven't you picked up on that yet? Also you are way off. Boomers are between 57-75 years old. I fall into Gen X which are 41-56. Now you kinda offended me by making me older than I am. My advise keep ask my age before you make your comment. which now is totally irrelevant.

I'll only comment on songs I really dig or really hate. I'll save the rest of the action for the actual YE RD. Thumbs up means I dug it. No thumbs up means life would be better without it. 53. Let the Bad Times Roll - The OffspringThere are some stuff about the 90's I really dug. One of them was this band. This sounded like there stuff from the 90's. It sounded clean and like the alternative Rock I grew up with. The chorus really bangs. Expect around the same rank at the end of the year. heads up: I think you uploaded the wrong Music Video, but I'm not complaining since that was also one of my favorites. 52. Survivor - Pop EvilI'll take the bullet for traditional sounding rock music any day. It's no "Boss's Daughter" , but this is actually the best this band has released since "If Only For Now". 51. Darkness Settles In - Five Finger Death PunchNot much to choose from on the list, but this one settles perfectly as one of their most memorable singles in the last few years. Easy top 10 on my list. A lot of tanks. I hope it's not for his political views? He does have a lot of wacked views, but I don't hang out with him I just dig his music. For me it's about the music ,and nothing else, and this song is good. 50. Adrenaline - Zero 9:36I really can't process what goes on in this travesty. I'll let an old friend of mine express my feelings instead. 48. Happy Endings - Mike Shinoda f/ iann dior & UPSAHLAt least I'll only have to listen to this one more time in my life at the end of the year. I do feel sorry for UPSAHL. She should have sat this one out. 46. Scarlet Cross - Black Veil BridesBeen charting this band since their older Glam Metal style. Never got around to charting this, but it is one of the best rock jams of the year. Glad it finally pushed its way onto the ACtive top 10. it goes hard and melodic in the chorus. LOL! I lost three top 10's in a year with some of the worst "Rock" music ever.

Not a fan of the song, but "Adrenaline" was genuinely one of the more memorable hooks off this list. Genuinely surprised at "Scarlet Cross" getting out already. For some reason, I thought it was more liked than it is. cool to see Mike finally get a solo hit As someone who likes "Make It Up As I Go", I am sad. You all wish you had a closeness stat as clean and even as mine Nothing too notable from this set of reveals. I fully expect some of my bottom 10s to go far.

Takes on memorable songs we've seen so far:
60. For the Glory: Feels like generic YouTube song that got accidentally released on radio. Which is fine. Except the additions (bad rapping from Hollywood Undead, sound effects from synths) feel more like subtractions.
58. Warrior: Had a feeling this one's gone early. I do like some Atreyu (The Time is Now) but it's hard to sound fierce with the high notes John Atreyu was hitting which might have helped sell the lyrics. I know he's toxic now, but someone like Tommy Vext might have helped with the delivery.
57. I've Been Everywhere: The guitar playing on this is fine. The problem is that Rob Zombie lacks the gravitas that Johnny Cash was able to provide on his version of the Hank Snow song. So it just sounds silly.
56. Follow You: Generic love song from ID. Wrecked can go at any point, I don't care. My household preferred Cutthroat; at least that song was interesting (even though John Dragons's explanation was bunk).
52. Survivor: The chorus to this one was fine. But it was the only part that worked. The post chorus part was particularly bad.
51. Darkness Settles In: I think for the first time since Wrong Side of Heaven, I might actually like a Five Finger Death Punch song. I know, I'm shocked too. I detected a bit more vocal ability than I was expecting from Ivan Moody (almost felt like a note and a half here). The video to Living the Dream would make my #100 easily, so don't expect this to be a trend to continue.
50. Adrenaline: ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Sorry, I fell asleep mid-song. I prefer songs called Adrenaline to not feel like it needs a shot of adrenaline to keep it alive. Give me Shinedown's Adrenaline any time over this; at least it'll get your blood pumping.
47. Elevator Boots: I didn't know I needed a Counting Crows song in 2021, but for better or worse, this one sounded like it would have fit in with Round Here and Mr. Jones.
46. Scarlet Cross: Not sure why I've heard some talk of "This isn't the BVB that I grew up with." The guitars were fierce and the vocals weren't bad. I do want to hear more from them after this.

Mmmm love sleeping through the reveals of my first Pulse rankdown lol. All in all though I could be doing a lot worse so I'll gladly take these results. I knew that putting I've Been Everywhere and Everything We Need high would be a crapshoot but seeing some of the worst songs I've heard all year like Let the Bad Times Roll and Adrenaline get tanked makes me feel validated. Kinda wild that if I did this rankdown a few months ago I woulda put Follow You pretty high, but the most annoying parts about it clicked with me recently.
