Five Finger Death Punch Lands First No. 1 on Hot Hard Rock Songs Since 2020 With ‘Eye of the Storm’

Five Finger Death Punch is back at No. 1 on Billboard ’s Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, debuting atop the survey dated June 6 with “Eye of the Storm.”

Released May 15, the song totaled 1.5 million chart-eligible streams, 1.7 million radio audience impressions and 2,000 sold in the United States in the week ending May 21, according to Luminate.

The track’s premiere atop the chart follows the 18-week rule of the band’s “A Little Bit Off” beginning in July 2020. That song started at No. 2 on the inaugural Hot Hard Rock Songs ranking that June. In all, the group, which formed in Las Vegas in 2005, boasts 11 top 10s.

In between “A Little Bit Off” and “Eye of the Storm,” the act tallied 12 entries, paced by a No. 2 peak for “AfterLife” in 2022.

Concurrently, “Eye of the Storm” begins at No. 18 on Mainstream Rock Airplay and enters the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart at No. 26. It’s Five Finger Death Punch’s best debut on the former since “AfterLife” (No. 16).

The download count for “Eye of the Storm” is also good for a No. 1 start on Hard Rock Digital Song Sales , the band’s chart-leading 18th ruler, dating to its first, “Under and Over It,” in 2011.

“Eye of the Storm” is currently a standalone single, expected to be part of the band’s 10th studio album, which does not yet have a release date. Its predecessor, AfterLife , debuted at No. 1 on the Top Hard Rock Albums chart in 2022 and has earned 423,000 equivalent album units to date.
