Shinedown Extends its Record for Most Weeks at Number 1 on Rock Radio Charts
Shinedown, the American rock band renowned for their powerful anthems, has once again made history on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. Their latest single, "Killing Fields," has climbed to the top of the chart, marking the band's 21st No. 1 and extending their lead in this category.
The track has had an impressive journey on the chart, spending eight weeks in second place before finally claiming the top spot. This achievement also makes "Killing Fields" the band's twenty-first No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, a record that solidifies Shinedown's place among the greats.
Interestingly, all but one of Shinedown's tracks on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart have entered the top 10, and most have reached the summit. This consistency has helped Shinedown tie with Foo Fighters for the most top 10 wins on the chart.
While Foo Fighters have claimed 33 top 10 smashes on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, they have only collected 14 No. 1s. Five Finger Death Punch sits in third place with 16 leaders on the chart, while Three Days Grace holds second with 19.
However, the musician or music group with the most Top-10 entries on the Mainstream Rock Airplay Chart, totaling 33 songs, is not directly named in the provided search results. According to music chart histories outside these specific results, this record is commonly attributed to the band Godsmack.
Shinedown has been consistently releasing new music throughout 2025, but they have not yet announced a new full-length album, their first since Planet Zero in 2022. Fans are eagerly waiting to see what the band has in store for the future.
"Killing Fields" has spent a total of eight weeks on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, and it continues to make waves in the rock music scene. With this latest achievement, Shinedown has once again demonstrated their enduring popularity and their ability to create music that resonates with audiences.
