For twenty years the legendary Van Halen held the record for the most number of rock songs in history. At least until Shinedown took them over and this week Shinedown have added to that total. Their latest powerful ballad “Symptom of Being Human” is their 23rd number-one rock song. Remember they said they’d be taking most of 2024 off, but they were just announced as headliners for Rockfest in Wisconsin this July. Elsewhere we had two debuts into the top 21 this week as Des Rocs shows up with “I Am The Lightning” and Foo Fighters return with “The Glass.” The rest of the top 21 can be seen below.
This week’s spotlight conversation from the podcast Cutter’s Rockcast is Texas rocker Austin Meade, who popped onto the scene a few years ago with the surprise crossover hit “Happier Alone.” Now he’s showing everyone that he can rock, and rock hard.
