March was a crazy good month for new music, the March playlist peaked at 73 songs. March was full of drops from familiar names like Foo Fighters, Sevendust, Nickelback, U2, New Found Glory, Young the Giant, Depeche Mode, and so many more. And at the same time, lots of bands we've been following since launching Smells Like Alt Rock like: As It Is, Lansdowne, Kensington, L0L0, Dexter and Moonrocks, and The Haunt - dropped some real bangers too.  The task to cut the playlist down for the end of the month was really hard this time, we got it down to a top 20 with 5 honorable mentions. And in the next week, we will also post the 2026 Q1 playlist - a big thank you to all the bands for the great music, you are making this really difficult and we love it!  The Menzingers grabbed the top spot this month with Nobody's Heroes Top 20 Songs from the Smells Like Alt Rock Blog for March: The Menzingers - Nobody's Heroes Sullvn w/ Dicky Barrett- Raise A Glass Social Distortion - Born To K...
