The big news on this week's Billboard Rock Songs chart is the song that isn't in the Top 10. For the first time since early September, "Say You'll Haunt Me," the lead single off Stone Sour's Audio Secrecy, is nowhere to be found on our countdown. As for who's No. 1, well, there's no surprise there.

Disturbed, do you want the good news or the bad news first? Good news is that "Animal" enjoyed gains in sales and airplay this week. The bad news is that your latest single off Asylum still dropped a notch this week.

My Chemical Romance's "Sing" got as high as No. 5 on our chart. This week, they slide back a spot. Is this a temporary blip, or are the modern-rockers on their way out?
