While Papa Roach remains in the number one spot this week with the powerful anthemic “Leave a Light On” it’s the legends of rock Pearl Jam and Green Day making the waves. Both of their new singles take big jumps, while on the other side, Daughtry falls all the way down to number 21. Also Dead Poet Society officially debuts in the top 20 with “Running in Circles.” Check out the rest of the top 21 in music video form below.
We turned our spotlight to a new “90s punk rock supergroup” called The Defiant. This band is made up of former Mighty Mighty Bosstones singer Dicky Barrett who joined the show to tell us about this band and play a few tunes. Pete Prada formerly of The Offspring and Face to Face plays drums and Greg Camp of Smashmouth plays guitar. Dicky is one of my (Cutter) childhood icons and I’m so happy he was able to be here on The Cutting Edge Countdown and my podcast Cutter’s Rockcast.
