LOS ANGELES, CA &#8211; JANUARY 31: (L-R) Mike Inez, Jerry Cantrell, William Duvall and Sean Kinney of ALice in Chains arrive at the 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards held at Staples Center on January 31, 2010 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Jeff Vespa\/WireImage)<\/p>\n<p>WireImage<\/p>\n<p>Streaming platforms may be a relatively new introduction to the music industry, but there are certain Billboard charts that focus exclusively on plays via platforms like Spotify, Apple Music and others, and which cater to only one genre, that seem to be stuck in the past. While lists that focus largely on hip-hop and R&amp;B can often include current-day smashes alongside tunes from years ago, the Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart is certainly one of the oldest-leaning rosters published by the company each week. <\/p>\n<p>This frame, the newest track featured on the 25-space rundown was released in 2006. That kind of showing is not always the case, but this is an especially quiet period with no major debuts on the roster. That means there is space for favorites to return, and one group brings multiple tracks back to the list \u2014 the only two that the band has ever charted, in fact.<\/p>\n<p>Alice in Chains Returns with Two Hit Singles<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/02\/15\/alice-in-chains-misses-out-on-a-new-no-1-by-one-space\/\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/02\/15\/alice-in-chains-misses-out-on-a-new-no-1-by-one-space\/\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"Alice in Chains\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Alice in Chains<\/a> returns two tracks to the <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/hard-rock-streaming-songs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/hard-rock-streaming-songs\/\" aria-label=\"Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart\">Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart<\/a> this week, and the pair of hits sit side-by-side. <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=TAqZb52sgpU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=TAqZb52sgpU\" aria-label=\"\u201cMan in the Box\u201d\">\u201cMan in the Box\u201d<\/a> reenters at No. 24, while \u201cNutshell\u201d follows immediately behind at No. 25.<\/p>\n<p>Alice in Chains Nearly Returns to a Career High<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNutshell\u201d misses out on returning to its all-time peak by only one space.

Alice in Chains sits on the same level as AC\/DC, which charts with \u201cThunderstruck\u201d and \u201cYou Shook Me All Night Long.\u201d Three Days Grace also occupies two spaces, as both \u201cAnimal I Have Become\u201d and \u201c(I Hate) Everything About You\u201d are present at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Linkin Park claims one additional hit.

All three spent only a single frame at the summit. Dirt is one of 10 Alice in Chains projects that have ever appeared on the Top Hard Rock Albums roster throughout the group\u2019s career. Nearly all of those titles \u2013 eight in total \u2013 have broken into the top 10.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"embed-base color-body color-body-border link-embed embed-0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/02\/15\/alice-in-chains-misses-out-on-a-new-no-1-by-one-space\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Alice In Chains Misses Out On A New No. 1 By One Space\" data-ga-track=\"forbesEmbedly:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/02\/15\/alice-in-chains-misses-out-on-a-new-no-1-by-one-space\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">ForbesAlice In Chains Misses Out On A New No. 1 By One SpaceBy Hugh McIntyre<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The only two Alice In Chains tracks to ever reach Billboard&#8217;s Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart return together,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1021300,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[29],"tags":[8828,408652,408651,408653,408655,408654,408656,408658,408657,171,408650,975,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-1021299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-alice-in-chains","tag-alice-in-chains-billboard","tag-alice-in-chains-charts","tag-alice-in-chains-man-in-the-box","tag-alice-in-chains-man-in-the-box-billboard","tag-alice-in-chains-man-in-the-box-charts","tag-alice-in-chains-nutshell","tag-alice-in-chains-nutshell-billboard","tag-alice-in-chains-nutshell-charts","tag-entertainment","tag-hard-rock-streaming-songs","tag-music","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/117151409508994906","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1021299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1021299"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1021299\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1021300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1021299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1021299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1021299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
