Knocked Loose have taken over the Spotify charts with their new album “You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To,” even surpassing Taylor Swift, and that’s saying something!
Of course, overtaking a pop icon like Taylor Swift in streaming numbers is no small feat. The singer recently released her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, and is already the talk of the town due to her current Eras Tour. But the hardcore band Knocked Loose also released their new album last week, and two songs from You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To have made it into Spotify’s Viral 50 top list in the USA. You can find out their exact positions below!
Positions Of Knocked Loose And Taylor Swift
Further down the list, but still in the Top 50, is the Knocked Loose track “Don’t Reach For Me” at number 43. That’s already an impressive achievement, but there’s more. As you move up the list, you first find Taylor Swift at number 32, with her song “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart”. Even higher up, Knocked Loose reappears in the Top 10! “Suffocate”, featuring Poppy, has reached number 10. While this doesn’t mean the band has garnered more streams than Taylor Swift, it is indeed a sign of how well the album has resonated in the music world.
Additionally, Sleep Token is still present in the Viral 50, even though their latest album is nearing its one-year anniversary. The title track from Take Me Back To Eden is holding strong at #48. Last year, the band even had four songs simultaneously on the list.
