Rock Sweep: October 11, 2014...
Round two of today's "chart sweeps" is up, with the latest rock songs on the radio as monitored by Billboard magazine.
On their main Rock Airplay chart, German duo Milky Chance nab their first #1 single on the list with "Stolen Dance"...
The top entry at #45 is "All The Rage Back Home" from New York modern rock act Interpol. It's their first time on the "big" rock chart, though they've had success on alternative radio, where the single is at #27 in its ninth week on the chart.
