As a year in which I did not maintain a weekly chart throughout, as in 2015 I compiled a list of discoveries through the year some (most) but not all of which were first heard in the year in question...

30. Powerwolf - 'Venom of Venus (The Monumental Mass)'
29. Sinful Maggie - 'Sh*tfaced'
28. Imperial Age - 'Legend of the Free'
27. Lawmaker - 'Flatline'
26. Silver Sun - 'Little Wonder'
The band more responsible for my renewed interest in metal than any other. They're Russian, but relocated to Turkey in response to the Ukraine war... #28

25. Brave the Sea - 'Rainbow In The Dark'
24. Ricky Rochelle - 'Don't Put the Chimp in Charge'
23. Cold Years - 'Kicking and Screaming'
22. Dirty Fences - 'Crazy'
21. Blyth Power - 'Junction Signal'
It was a Facebook conversation ahead of Rebellion 2022 that turned me on to this song. Another that dates well in advance of current year, #21 represents an enduring spirit that I hope, but don't expect, to be replicated

20. Funeral Dress - 'Let's Go Down The Pub'
19. Lawmaker - 'Tooth & Claw'
18. Tir Nan Og - 'I Sold My Soul'
17. Sabaton - 'The Unkillable Soldier'
16. Black Water County - 'Under Skies of Black and Blue'
They must be one of the most unfortunately-monickered bands of all time, but the Belgians of Funeral Dress came up with an unsung 2022 classic with Let's Go Down The Pub. Featuring at #20 here, it's the perfect follow-up to Sham 69's Hurry Up Harry

13. Cock Sparrer - 'I Fit Central Heating (Working. Pt. 2)'
12. Chris Janson - 'We Did It Anyway'
11. Louis Dunford - 'Regretamine (Revisited)'
#11 How can this possibly only have 380 likes???

10. Imperial Age - 'The Way is The Aim'
9. Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq. - 'I've No More F*cks To Give (Electric Timebomb Remix)'

I have to stop here because this Ramones cut has defined a large part of my year

7. The Whitmore Sisters - 'Big Heart Sick Mind'
"Why do I need to know why / so damn bad that I'm willing to die"
Just superb. There's Rachel Brooke, and then there's this...

6. Black Water County - 'The Painful Truth'
The band I looked forward to seeing all year, their Manchester gig having been postponed twice thanks to Covid. Was it worth the wait? Oh yes

5. Greenbrier Lane - 'Stupid Cupid'
The one that could have been a multi-week #1 while my chart was still active, had it not become apparent that the song were from about 15 years earlier. However, any year it came out, this is an absolute pop-punk banger

3. Autoheart - 'Lent'
My 12-point selection in Havenvision 12. Quite possibly, the best new song I've ever heard in a Haven contest. Both the video and the song are all-time greats. Little more I can say about it. Superb.

1. Lawmaker - 'Moving On'
Never really in doubt. My song of the month for March, the one that spent 6 weeks at #1 in my weekly chart. The Swedish/American band who played in Berlin in November but I didn't manage to get across to see. Maybe someday...

Lawmaker are definitely at or near the top of my list of bands to see! Definitely interested if they ever come to the South of England.

The biggest ever hit in my chart by an act from Jamaica, and so possibly considered the biggest ever reggae hit in my chart.
Still it was November 2020 when my retro chart was in that period of 1976 that this song topped my chart so not sure why it was a discovery in 2022.
