LSD (2) - Alt-8 Week of 7/28/18

Hi everyone. The Alt-8 is starting to look a lot better. We have a great #1, and some solid potential successors to it. Without further ado, here are this week's exits:

• King Princess - 1950 (#7) [x4]
• Young The Giant - Simplify (#5)

8. Layto - Little Poor Me (DEBUT)

7. Rex Orange County/Benny Sings - Loving Is Easy (#8) [+1]

6. The Wombats - Lemon To A Knife Fight (#3) [-3]

5. Weezer - Africa (#1) [-4] {6 Weeks At #1}

4. Death Cab For Cutie - Gold Rush (RE-ENTRY)

3. AJR - Burn The House Down (#2) [-1]

2. Twenty One Pilots - Jumpsuit (#4) [+2]

1. LSD - Genius (#6) [+5] {2nd Week At #1}

New Entrants

~Gold Rush re-entered. I've definitely grown into this one. I could see myself putting this in green soon.

~Little Poor Me is a little odd, but the production is pretty good. The vocals aren't the best though, but for now I like it.

Little Poor Blurbs

~I hope 1950 stays away. I don't really care about Simplify, but it was just taking up a spot on the countdown.

~I am shocked to see Genius back at #1. I was certain that this was going to exit this week. I am really happy about it, though. It would be kinda nice to see a real alternative song at #1 though. Hopefully it's Jumpsuit.

~Africa fell really fast. With this starting to cross over into mainstream radio, I'm going to get sick of it even faster, so I hope it exits sooner rather than later.

~It seems like Burn The House Down might be dying out. I wouldn't mind seeing this hang around a bit longer, but I also wouldn't care if it left.

~Lemon To A Knife Fight thankfully dropped. Let's get this one off the countdown as soon as we can.
