All Time Low achieves third No 1

“The Weather” tops alternative radio

Multi-platinum Maryland quartet All Time Low is once again back at the top of the charts! For the third time in their highly decorated, multi-decade career, the rock icons officially have a No. 1 single to their name: “The Weather” currently sits at No. 1 on the alternative radio charts. This latest feat marks the third No. 1 single of the band’s already momentous career, having previously accomplished this feat with “Monsters” and “Sleepwalking.” In fact, during its run at the top of the charts, “Monsters” became the longest-charting song ever, having spent 18 weeks atop Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart.

While certainly no stranger to palpable buzz, it’s been a decidedly whirlwind few months for All Time Low in the wake of their releasing Everyone’s Talking!, the tenth full-length studio LP from the acclaimed outfit, released via their own imprint, Basement Noise Records, in partnership with Photo Finish Records/Virgin Music Group. The album debuted at No. 2 on the Current Alternative Albums chart, No. 3 on the Current Rock Albums chart, and No. 8 on Billboard’s Top Vinyl Albums.

Additionally, the band recently wrapped the first leg of their 30-plus-date Everyone’s Talking! Tour, the biggest headlining tour of their career. The band touches down in Australia early this month for a set of dates before heading to Europe in late January for a string of shows, including a gig at London’s famed O2 Arena, in addition to stops in Paris, Prague, Barcelona, and more, with support from Mayday Parade, Four Year Strong, and The Paradox.

Last week, Baltimore County and County Executive Katherine Klausmeier proclaimed November 26th “All Time Low Day” in Baltimore County in recognition of the band’s career accomplishments and charitable contributions. Additionally, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott issued a Mayoral Salute to the band for their dedicated community service and cultural impact.

For a multi-decade outfit known for their anthemic, inimitable sound and fiercely loyal fanbase, the new LP stands as yet another marker of All Time Low’s undeniable, everlasting impact on the music world. Even more fulfilling for the band, the stunning Everyone’s Talking! is as clear an indicator as any that 20-plus years together as a band has collectively built to this undeniably momentous moment.

After kicking off the Everyone’s Talking! era this past summer with the release of the album’s debut single, “Suckerpunch,” which they performed to over 25,000 fans at Warped Tour in DC, All Time Low kept their foot on the gas: they surprise-released a new song “Oh No!,” performed their hit single “The Weather” on the Today Show, unveiled the stunning single “Butterflies,” and even thrilled fans with surprise performances at both the Jonas Brothers’ DC stadium gig as well as at a Savannah Bananas game in Baltimore. Earlier this fall, they celebrated their album release with a free concert to over 21,000 fans at The Fremont Street Experience in Downtown Las Vegas, ahead of their appearance at the When We Were Young Festival.
