Trapt's story shows how different Billboard's rock charts could be from their #Hot100 chart… Throughout the ‘00s, they had multiple major rock-radio hits, including three #1 singles on Mainstream Rock. But only “Headstrong” crossed over onto the Hot 100's #Top40. #Trapt #OneHitWondered

Trapt’s “Echo” followed in 2004, reaching #10 on Modern Rock Tracks & #13 on Mainstream Rock. The single was trapped at #25 on Billboard’s Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, which is an extension/overflow to their #Hot100 chart. #Trapt #Billboard #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
