On the harder-edged Mainstream Rock radio panel, Five Finger Death Punch is on top for a second week with "Wash It All Away"...
Hard rock band Adelitas Way preview their upcoming fourth studio album Getaway with the track "Bad Reputation" at #35. In 2012 they climbed to #1 with "Criticize"...

Lastly, on the Triple-A (adult album alternative, or "hipster rock") format, Coldplay reigns for a fifth week with "Adventure Of A Lifetime"...
English indie-rock group Foals trot in at #23 with "Mountain At My Gates", which also moves up to #11 on the Alternative chart...
Adele went to #1 on this airplay chart with "Hello" (of course the editors at Billboard won't let it on their "Rock Songs" list), and now is at #25 with "When We Were Young"...
The late great David Bowie claims my "Rock Pick of the Week" at #26 with "Lazarus" from his Blackstar opus...
Nashville-based alternative rock band The Wild Feathers fly in at #29 with "Overnight". In 2013 they reached #7 on this list with "The Ceiling"...
