From Ashes to New rules a Billboard radio chart for the first time, lifting a spot to No. 1 on the May 16-dated Mainstream Rock Airplay tally with “Drag Me.”
The song is the Pennsylvania rockers’ first leader, via its 13th entry on the survey. The group first reached Mainstream Rock Airplay in 2016 with “Through It All,” which peaked at No. 6, marking its first of seven top 10s. Prior to “Drag Me,” the band’s best was “Barely Breathing,” featuring Against the Current (No. 2, 2024).
Six acts have hit No. 1 on Mainstream Rock Airplay for the first time in 2026, in line with the 10 that did so in all of 2025. The two most recent leaders have been by newcomers to the top spot, as “Drag Me” displaces Dayseeker’s “Crawl Back to My Coffin” after one week.
Concurrently, “Drag Me” zooms 24-17 on the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart thanks to 2.2 million radio audience impressions in the week ending May 7, a gain of 17%, according to Luminate. It’s From Ashes to New’s highest-charting entry there, surpassing the No. 20 peak of “Barely Breathing.”
“Drag Me” reached a new No. 20 best on the latest multimetric Hot Hard Rock Songs chart (dated May 9, reflecting data accumulated April 24-30). In addition to its radio airplay, it drew 344,000 chart-eligible streams in the United States.
Reflections, the parent album of “Drag Me,” was released April 17. The band’s fifth studio set has earned 19,000 equivalent album units to date.
All Billboard charts dated May 16 will update Tuesday, May 12, on Billboard.com.
