117 The Strokes - Bad Decisions The Strokes were back in 2020 with their sixth album The New Abnormal, the album was a bit different to their usual style and their singles were generally pretty decent and this one was brilliant

115 Jimmy Eat World - Criminal Energy Jim Adkins and his band Jimmy Eat World released their debut album in 1994, amazing to think they are still releasing such great music 26 years later

114 Hot Milk - California's Burning Hot Milk are co-vocalists Jim Shaw and Han Mee, bassist Tom Paton and drummer Harry Deller, calling Manchester, UK their home. The Sound. Self-described as emo-powerpop, the bridge reminds me of AFI - Miss Murder but that not a bad thing

112 Oakman - Naufragé Oakman is a female fronted 3-piece-band from Lyon, France, they are a cross between Chvrches and Paramore. They have opened for bands like Enter Shikari in Paris so are getting some attention from the alt rock community, a #7 hit in my chart which i think went under the radar for most people because this is so Haven, melodic female fronted electro pop/rock

110 BLOXX - Lie Out Loud The Uxbridge band make hook-stuffed indie-pop with big choruses, clearly inspired by Paramore as are most bands of this genre

109 Creeper - All My Friends Formed through their mutual involvement in hardcore punk and post-hardcore groups in the Southampton area, Creeper are musically and stylistically influenced by fellow "goth punk" groups including AFI, this one is more of a ballad that showcases an entire different side to the band

108 Sea Girls - Do You Really Wanna Know? A #6 hit in my chart, what a tune! Sea Girls just get better and better. Great single from their debut album "Open Up Your Head" which was released on 14 August 2020 and peaked at number 3 on the UK Albums Chart

Yeah same with other peoples charts, if I'm lucky I catch them a few month late and chart them anyway but sometimes I miss acts entirely, Sam Fender and Declan McKenna took 4 or 5 songs to get into and Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever

107 Green Day - Oh Yeah! 2020 saw Green Day troll us by claiming they were returning to save rock and roll then releasing an album full of doo wop inspired 60's songs sang mostly in falsetto about sleeping with your pillow and other lame things, people hated it, they went mad, they just didn't get it lol, "this isn't Green Day", "This is lame", well yeah that's the entire point

106 The Birthday Massacre - The Sky Will Turn The Canadian gothic electro rock band were back in 2020 with new album Diamonds, as a teaser they released a few teaser tracks and this one was brilliant

105 The Night Flight Orchestra - Divinyls Another great 70s AOR track from Swedish band The Night Flight Orchestra, this one hits all the right spots, a #6 hit in my chart

104 Sam Fender - All Is On My Side Another good song by Sam Fender, not quite as good as his earlier stuff so just misses out on my top 100, still a decent #5 hit in my chart

103 Bring Me The Horizon - Parasite Eve I still haven't figured this band out, I go from liking them to being indifferent about them, I think its the over production mixed with the heavier sound, but when they get it right they have made some good songs

102 Lucia & The Best Boys - Forever Forget Over the past year or so, Glasgow has shown itself as a hotbed for fresh new guitar music, alongside the shiny goth-pop of The Ninth Wave and Walt Disco’s ’80s throwbacks sit Lucia & The Best Boys, a four-piece gleaning messages of hope and strength from straight-to-the-point, catchy indie-pop, this song is pure Haven and a #3 hit in my chart

101 You Me At Six - Beautiful Way The unlucky one to just miss my top 100, The alt rock band from Surrey have been experimenting a little with samples and the result is a Pendulum like rock song
