I wish more rock-oriented songs would come around once in awhile just to add variety, because I think that rhythmic stations have given urban songs a disgusting leverage.
In short: Panic Switch is a great song that most people won't get to hear, unless they turn to their alternative station.

Sadly, this is true. But it is good that there are a few that do crossover.
I mean, there are about 7-8 "rock" bands in the top 50 that have successful crossover.
I'm not sure if I should even count AAR, since they are pretty much pop.
It's not a lot, but at least there is some variety.
