Incubus had moved up to No. 5 last week with "Adolescents," but now they've hit a major snag: The first single from If Not Now, When? drops to No. 8 this week.

"You Are a Tourist" ascends one place this week. Death Cab for Cutie will be playing the Sasquatch Music Festival on May 28.

This week's other high-riser is a bit of a shock since it's a song that seemed to be on its way out of the Top 10. Nonetheless, Cage the Elephant's "Shake Me Down" bounces up three spots to No. 5.
4. Mumford & Sons - "The Cave"

Mumford & Sons keep hangin' around: For a fifth week in a row, "The Cave" sits at No. 4.

Rise Against is at No. 3 for a second straight week with "Help Is on the Way." Over the last two-and-a-half months, the Endgame track has never been lower than No. 4 on our list, although it never did hit No. 1.
2. Seether - "Country Song"

I actually think there are better potential singles on Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray than "Country Song," but listeners love it. For a second straight week, the Seether cut sits at No. 2.
1. Foo Fighters - "Rope"

Foo Fighters make it a lucky 13 weeks in a row at No. 1 with "Rope." The first single off Wasting Light has now been at the top spot longer than any other track in the nearly two-year history of the Rock Songs chart. Congrats, fellas.
