Looking for popular rock songs of the last 10 years

So, I'm on a mission to find all the somewhat popular rock songs that I've heard on 99.7 and 107.1 (RIP) over the past 10 years or so. I'm talking some of the one hit wonders and such. The guys that had one damn good song, and then disappeared. I'm also looking for some of the stuff from the mainstream guys.

 

Is there any music billboard chart or something that goes back that far?

 

 

Side note: I saw someone had the band 'Submersed' listed in the current music thread. I'd forgotten completely about this band. 'Hollow' was the only song that I know of that ended up on the radio. This is the type of stuff I'm looking for.

 

:cool:

the toadies made that one song "possum king" that is constantly played on 99.7. The rest of the 90s grunge they play is souley pearl jam, nirvana, alice in chains, smashing pumpkins, and a little janes addiction.

 

Edit: cant forget tool, and, the most annoying band of all time, rage against the machine.

New music makes me appreciate the classics. There has been nothing truely groundbreaking nor original in the past ~5-10 years, but good luck on your search.

 

 

Agreed. The only 'groundbreaking' thing that came around would be the White Stripes, and they're just updated blues.

There is a good amount of original stuff these days. You just have to resort to tracking down these bands/musicians rather than listening to the radio. And I'll agree, The White Stripes is far from groundbreaking.

 

Now to make this thread interesting, let's get a debate on who thinks Nirvana is one of the main reasons for all the shitty rock you hear on the radio these days.

There's a reason why i put it in quotes. I know they're not. It's the only artist I can think of who has tried to break the mold, even a little, in mainstream music.

BTW, Nirvana's Bleach has been one of my favorite albums for a long time. Pretty different from Nevermind. I rarely listen to the radio anymore unless I have to. I can't stand the whininess.

That was me! I'm a huge fan of Submersed and other lesser-known bands like them.

 

This is an awesome thread. That Spacehog song is one of my all-time favorites. Here's a few more songs that I don't think were mentioned yet:

 

Candlebox - Far Behind

Dishwalla - Counting Blue Cars

Everclear - Santa Monica

Live - Lightning Crashes

Meat Puppets - Backwater

Seven Mary Three - Cumbersome

Seven Wiser - Take Me As I Am

The Darkness - I Believe In a Thing Called Love :D

Pres. of the United States of America - Peaches

The Wallflowers - One Headlight

Weezer - Island In The Sun

AC DC - Big Gun

 

 

Add anything else by Guns N Roses, Alice In Chains, Collective Soul, Counting Crows, Eve 6, Foo Fighters, Goo Goo Dolls, Incubus, Linkin Park, Matchbox 20, Nirvana, Ozzy, the RH Chili Peppers, Sugar Ray, the Offspring, Smashing Pumpkins, Third Eye Blind, 3 Doors Down, or Three Days Grace

 

Hope this helps :cool:
