Papa Roach is set to achieve another milestone as their song 'Leave a Light On' is poised to reach the No. 1 spot on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. This will mark the band's impressive tenth chart-topper, a feat accomplished by only a select few artists.
The Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, which tracks the performance of rock songs on radio stations across the country, is a significant indicator of a song's popularity within the rock genre. 'Leave a Light On' is the fourth track from Papa Roach's latest album, Ego Trip, to reach the No. 1 position on this chart.
Papa Roach's winning streak began with 'Kill the Noise' in November 2021, followed by 'No Apologies' in September 2022, and 'Cut the Line' in May 2023. The band's ability to produce multiple chart-topping hits from a single album is a rare accomplishment, placing them in the company of esteemed acts like Linkin Park, Five Finger Death Punch, and Shinedown.
Only seven artists in the history of the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart have achieved the feat of sending four tracks from one album to the No. 1 position. Shinedown holds the record with five No. 1 singles from their album 'The Sound of Madness.'
Papa Roach's consistent success on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart underscores their enduring popularity and influence within the rock music landscape. With 'Leave a Light On' poised to make history once again, the band continues to solidify their status as one of the most successful rock acts of their generation.
