From Ashes to New Score Second Straight Mainstream Rock Airplay No. 1 With ‘Die for You’

The band joins Shinedown and Three Days Grace as the only acts with multiple leaders in 2026.

From Ashes to New has reclaimed the top spot on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart for the second consecutive week, with their track "Die for You" reaching No. 1. The song, released in March through Better Noise Music, experienced a 7% increase in plays during the Oct. 2-8 tracking week, as reported by Luminate. This marks the band's second radio No. 1, following their hit "Drag Me," which topped the chart in May.

From Ashes to New made their chart debut in 2016 with "Through It All," which peaked at No. 6. The band's eighth top 10 single, "Die for You," is their fourth of the year. This achievement makes From Ashes to New the third act to secure multiple No. 1 singles on Mainstream Rock Airplay in 2026, alongside Shinedown and Three Days Grace.

The song, which is the fourth single from their fifth studio album, Reflections, released in April, also grants Better Noise Music its fourth No. 1 of 2026. The label now shares the top spot with BMG for the most No. 1s in the format this year, with 24 each. Better Noise leads all labels in Mainstream Rock Airplay No. 1s for both 2025 (five) and 2024 (four).

Concord and RCA follow with 18 and 14 No. 1s respectively, while Warner, Republic, Atlantic, and BMG each have 13, 11, and 10 No. 1s, respectively. Billboard's charts will be updated on October 13 on Billboard.com.
