From , former About.com Guide

This week's Billboard Rock Songs chart doesn't feature a single debut in the Top 10. So sit back and enjoy the best in blues-rock, punk, pop-rock, indie and whatever you'd want to label Cage the Elephant.

10. Foster the People - "Pumped Up Kicks"

After debuting last week at No. 9, Foster the People drop one place this week. Still, the Los Angeles trio have only been together since 2009: That's a pretty fast rise.

9. Sick Puppies - "Riptide"

"Riptide" moves up one place after being stuck at No. 10 for two weeks. The song comes off Sick Puppies' Tri-Polar, which was just re-released in a deluxe edition.

8. Cage the Elephant - "Shake Me Down"

Death Cab for Cutie were last week's highest debut. This week, "You Are a Tourist" moves up one place.

6. The Black Keys - "Howlin' for You"

It looks like "Howlin' for You" won't be repeating the feat that the Black Keys' last single, "Tighten Up," achieved, which was ruling the Rock Songs chart for several weeks. After sitting at No. 5 for two weeks, the song falls a spot.

"Adolescents" had been stuck at No. 7 for three weeks. No longer: This week, the Incubus cut jumps up two spots.

 

4. Mumford & Sons - "The Cave"

For four weeks now, Mumford & Sons have resided at No. 4 with "The Cave." The band's latest single off Sigh No More peaked at No. 2.

After two weeks at No. 2, "Help Is on the Way" loses some ground, falling to No. 3. Rise Against will be touring with Foo Fighters in the fall.

2. Seether - "Country Song"

Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray, the new album from Seether, hit stores May 17, and this week the first single, "Country Song," rises one spot to No. 2. The band will be part of this year's Rockstar Uproar.

1. Foo Fighters - "Rope"

"Rope" has now been No. 1 for 12 weeks. But could this be the end of Foo Fighters' reign? Their single failed to show significant gains in spins or sales this week, which usually means a song is losing steam. Tune in next week to find out.
