Hi everyone. This was a really boring week for the Alt-8. Since this post is going to be really short, I'll do an album review this week. Comment below if there's an album you'd like to see me talk about. Before we get to the countdown, here are the exits:

• CHVRCHES - Miracle (#7)

Last Week's #1 Song: Weezer - Africa (1)

8. Alice Merton - Lash Out (RE-ENTRY)

Quarter Past Midblurb

~Not much happened this week. Ohio is a song that I will get sick of quickly. The lyrics are nice but it's kinda boring. Lash Out is just a really bad song. I'm not a fan of Alice Merton's voice, but I did expect this to re-enter so no surprises there.

~As far as our exits, Miracle was fine but it didn't do much for me. I don't think this is the end for it though. On the other hand, I'm really hoping this is the end of Burn The House Down. AJR just honestly cannot make good music. I'm hoping this one doesn't come back anytime soon.

~Four Out Of Five took a drop this week. I'm okay with this, as I'm getting sick of the song. I'm expecting it to exit next week

~While listening to the countdown, I was worried that Genius has exited and Burn The House Down would be #2, but I'm pleasantly surprised by the jump from Genius. I still doubt that this will ever hit #1, but I would be very happy if it did.

~Sorry for the lack of blurbs. This was not an eventful week.
