There are 10 rock and metal songs that passed one billion streams on Spotify this summer.

Spotify's Billions Club playlist collects all of the songs that have surpassed one billion streams on the popular music platform. At press time (Sept. 27, 2024), the playlist includes 752 songs with that exact distinction and, among them, are more than 80 rock and metal songs.

Summer officially began on June 20 and ended on Sept. 22 and, amid that three-month rage, a total of 10 rock and metal songs became members of that Billions Club playlist.

Seven of those artists reached the mark for the very first time. Meanwhile, System of a Down and Green Day notched their second entry on the playlist and Fleetwood Mac earned their third.
