No song was more infectious this year than Foster the People's Pumped up Kids. What started as a catchy indie rock diddy took off and became an international hit rocketing up the Billboard charts and propelling rock album sales. Most people still don't know the song is about a school shooting. Maybe that why despite its popular success, it's still retained its indie cred. Hopefully this is a sign that there's still a place for rock music on the charts...or maybe it's opening the floodgates for a rock music revival. One can only hope.
