This is WWDC in the nation's capitol. This station is really annoying. The song "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" has been in the top 5 for nearly a year now!  I decided to bold anything I find too old to be in the top 20. One annoying thing is how they play those two KOL songs still but rarely play "Notion". 2 1 LINKIN PARK New Divide 41 41 - 0.511 1 2 CAGE THE ELEPHANT Ain't No Rest For The Wicked 39 41 -2 0.503 3 3 SILVERSUN PICKUPS Panic Switch 39 40 -1 0.523 4 4 OFFSPRING You're Gonna Go Far, Kid 33 36 -3 0.487 7 5 FOO FIGHTERS The Pretender 31 30 1 0.488 5 6 KINGS OF LEON Use Somebody 31 35 -4 0.415 6 7 KINGS OF LEON Sex On Fire 29 33 -4 0.453 9 8 CHEVELLE Jars 23 25 -2 0.250 12 9 THREE DAYS GRACE Break 22 22 - 0.273 15 10 FOO FIGHTERS Let It Die 21 20 1 0.278 11 11 RISE AGAINST Savior 21 22 -1 0.270 10 12 ALICE IN CHAINS Check My Brain 20 22 -2 0.183 8 13 BRAVERY Believe 20 25 -5 0.260 22 14 BREAKING BENJAMIN I Will Not Bow 19 12 7 0.156 18 15 SEETHER Fake It 19 19 - 0.333 28 16 SHINEDOWN If You Only Knew 19 9 10 0.294 19 17 KINGS OF LEON Notion 17 18 -1 0.126 16 18 WEEZER I Want To 17 20 -3 0.188 24 19 MUSE Uprising 16 12 4 0.118 13 20 NINE INCH NAILS The Hand That Feeds 16 21 -5 0.254

I would've given it an F, but "If You Only Knew" bumps it up to a D. That playlist is everything wrong with alternative radio today.

I'll give it an A! I like most of the songs a lot. There are no songs I hate.

^I like "The Pretender" a lot, but I don't like hearing two year-old songs 31 times a week on a radio station.

I shouldn't have to switch the station just because our idiot MD likes to play songs from 2005-2007 30 times a week.
I mean, is it to much to ask that you have current songs on your current playlist?

This is why iPods pwn radio stations. My iPod fails at shuffling. It's literally the same songs every day and I have 7000 songs.

I think this station is getting worse each day. They keep editing out stuff that's been played on the radio for 15 years. However, I think that it's ClearChannel's facist doing.
This station's temorary Jackass DJ really pissed me off today.

I'll give it a B+, man. I give them big props for only spinning their top song 27 times. To have that many songs in the 10-20 range prodides a lot of variety and not so much reptition. That's way better than the stations that play a small group of songs 40-60 times per week. As for the actual songs, I'm also impressed. Unlike my station, they actually keep the listeners up to date with new music (while not jamming "1901" in our ears as if its a new song). I'm not a fan of seeing "Animal" that high, but what could I expect?  Overall, very good.

I agree with KP! That is a very nice playlist.

More Alt stations should look like that. They're playing most of the chart right there, aren't they? 15 spins is still a little high for songs like "Savior" and "1901", but at least it's not 50. And as KP said, the top song only having 27 spins is a nice touch.
I don't have an Alt, the best I can do is Rock 102. And believe me, the less said about their playlist, the better.
