118. The Jesus and Mary Chain – Always Sadwww.youtube.com/watch?v=qevLgqlKvIkPeak Position: 8 They hadn't released an album since 1998 so to see them come back in 2017 was a huge surprise especially with songs of the quality of Always Sad

117. Liam Gallagher – For What It's Worthwww.youtube.com/watch?v=SDrPghDvYA4Peak Position: 6 After several rank average Beady Eye albums and before that several uninspired Oasis albums I never expected to see Liam Gallagher to put out music of this quality again, I was never a huge Oasis fan but you feel at this point in time music needs a few big name rock stars releasing good stuff and Mr Gallagher obliges

116. Cold War Kids – Can We Hang On?www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSXry7iC5tYPeak Position: 8 You will see a lot of Cold War Kids amongst the next few songs, they had a great 2017 in my chart, they have been off my radar since 2006 "Hang Me up to Dry"

115. RALE – Demento
Peak Position: 8
No youtube link for this one unfortunately, found these guys last year when they released Sprinkled With Rust, loved the Interpol/Editors vibe, hopefully they carry on the good work into 2018

114. Fickle Friends – Hello Hellowww.youtube.com/watch?v=aRWo7qMWxf8Peak Position: 7 Another song I expect to do really well in TheThorne countdown. They are a bit of a conundrum for me, looking back I first charted them in 2014 with "For You", then "Say No More" peaked at #8 in 2015 back when they sounded like The 1975, in 2016 "Cry Baby" bubbled under for 3 or 4 weeks and 2017 "Hello Hello" peaked at #7, "Glue" stalled at #58 and "Hard To Be Myself" didn't even get that far, it was a bit too safe and bland but "Hello Hello" was brilliant

113. Secret Cameras – It Doesn't Matterwww.youtube.com/watch?v=1PPvgS2Y144Peak Position: 4 Spent 5 weeks in my top 10 and peaked at number 4, whilst they aren't overly similar to Airborn Toxic Event this song gives me the same vibe as Sometime Around Midnight but with more frantic guitars

108. Blossoms – Honey Sweetwww.youtube.com/watch?v=tbTmNXbH_RsPeak Position: 3 Peaked at #3 back in March but it was from 2016 album Blossoms so seems like an old song, a bit slower and dreamier than there usual stuff

107. The Wombats – Lemon to a Knife Fightwww.youtube.com/watch?v=nNh51G84WZYPeak Position: 5 Hard to place this one with it being such a late release in 2017, The Wombats are another band that rarely let me down when it comes to new releases

106. The Spitfires – Move Onwww.youtube.com/watch?v=ONkegiHTrQ8Peak Position: 8 Probably the best song they have done, very 90's sounding, "Over And Over Again" was another good song by them released in 2017, that came in at #201

102. Creeper – Down Belowwww.youtube.com/watch?v=sewSEUz2GJsPeak Position: 16 I was a bit late to the game getting into these guys, I noticed them in @thorny chart and they sounded like a cross between Jimmy Eat World, AFI and Evanescence
