#5 Marianna - NOBRO (#1, January) [20, 7, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 5, 11, 16, 21, 36, 60] (Montreal, Canada)
All-girl punk act NOBRO stormed onto my chart in January, although their follow-ups haven't been as successful (both 'I Don't Wanna Talk About It' and 'Don't Die' failed to make my chart)

#4 Forget It - MID CITY (#1, March) [23, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 5, 6, 7, 13, 25, 46, 65] (Melbourne, Australia)
Long-time FragChart readers will know MID CITY very well - they perform consistently well in my chart, managing #11, #7 and #5 in my 2019 year-end chart, and going one place better in 2020. They're very Killers-ish, and still producing great songs into 2021. Here's their history:
2019 #5: Old Habits (#2, April) #7: Fake Friends Forever (#1, August) #11: No Surrender (#1 [2 weeks], March) #50: Die Waiting (#9, May) #200: Dead Broke Blues (#19, March)
2020 #4: Forget It (#1 [4 weeks], March) #28: Liar Liar (#2, October) #80: Good For It (#9, November)

#3 Tuesday - Mercy Music (#1, August) [19, 8, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 5, 12, 19, 34, 43, 68] (Las Vagas, USA)
This song doesn't waste any time - although ironically, you have to skip to 0:48 to hear one of the strongest intros of 2020.

#2 Radio Don't Care - Hangtime (#1, October) [23, 1, 1, 1, 3, 5, 8, 14, 26, 29, 39, 56, 57] (Toronto, Canada)
And the "Best new-to-Frag band of 2020" award goes to... Hangtime, who have been consistently successful in my chart all year. The third song in the top 20 that is about the simple joy of listening to music, and the second one to mention The Ramones!

#1 Expectations - Molly And The Krells (#1, November) [11, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, ?] (Sydney, Australia)
So give me rock and roll and a little bit of soul At a dimly lit sticky dive bar show Where me and my friends can laugh at all the stupid trends...
The fourth Australian band to make it into my year-end top 10 this year! I didn't hear this song until November 23rd, but it hit the spot straight away, bagging the highest new entry position of the year as well as being the first song since 'Knights Of Cydonia' to surpass five weeks at #1. It does make me long for a loud, sweaty club night...
