This month's is late, sorry, all none of you! Not a lot happened, except for a new entry by the Silversun Pickups. I expect they will dominate my top 5 for the remainder of the year, because the new CD is full of good songs. I love the new CD. There is something about "Disconnected" that really grabbed me. I do enjoy some metal, particularly Killswitch Engage, and a host of old skool stuff (Dio, Sabbath, Priest), but the modern bands, not so much. This song by In Flames really speaks to me, though...Ahem, and I quote (and apologies for anyone who is offended by some language): "I feel like shit/but at least I feel something". OK, not exactly shakespeare, but its a clever quip nonetheless. A year ago I was heavy into "I Get It", by Chevelle. I love that song. The song title is followed by group name. The first digit is the previous ranking. The second one is the highest rank attained, and the third digit is the total number of weeks in the top 5. JU
