Hope you liked last week's Top 10 Rock Songs. This week's Billboard chart contains the exact same 10 tunes, although their order has shifted slightly. But only slightly: No song moves up or down our chart more than a single spot.
10. The Black Keys - "Howlin' for You"

"Howlin' for You" got as high as No. 5 on our chart before exiting the Top 10 over a month ago. But now the Black Keys single has found a second wind, jumping up to No. 9 last week. This week, they fall back to No. 10.
9. Avenged Sevenfold - "So Far Away"

Last week, "So Far Away" debuted in the Top 10 at No. 10. This week, the Avenged Sevenfold track scoots up one spot.
8. Incubus - "Adolescents"

There was reason for celebration this week for Incubus, who released their first album in five years with If Not Now, When? But on our countdown, there's less to get excited about as "Adolescents" stays stuck at No. 8.
7. Sixx:A.M. - "Lies of the Beautiful People"

Sixx:A.M. enjoyed strong sales and airplay gains this week for "Lies of the Beautiful People," but unfortunately it doesn't translate into a huge chart jump. For the second straight week, Nikki Sixx's band are at No. 7.
6. Coldplay - "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall"

Coldplay were at No. 5 for two weeks, but this week "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall" moves back one spot. The British band will be heading to Lollapalooza next month.
5. Death Cab for Cutie - "You Are a Tourist"

"You Are a Tourist" looked like it was about ready to beat a quick retreat from our Top 10, but that might have been a premature assumption. This week, the Death Cab for Cutie single moves up one spot.
4. Foster the People - "Pumped Up Kicks"

The new L.A. band Foster the People got as high as No. 3 last week, but this week they slide one spot. Don't feel too bad for "Pumped Up Kicks," though: It remains No. 1 on the Alternative Songs chart.
3. Foo Fighters - "Walk"

"Walk" moves up one place this week. Foo Fighters currently have two songs in the Top Three.
2. Seether - "Country Song"

For nine weeks now, Seether have hung out at No. 2 with "Country Song." The South African group may still be holding out hope that maybe, just maybe, they could still hit No. 1.
1. Foo Fighters - "Rope"

Wasting Light has very much proved to be a triumphant comeback for Foo Fighters. The single "Walk" is zooming up our chart, and as for "Rope," well, it's now at No. 1 for a 20th week in a row. If all that wasn't enough, Wasting Light is also the first from the band to go to No. 1. 2011 has definitely been a happy Foo year.
