After reaching #2 in their first time out, Nemesea steps up to #1 with their second Rock Rips hit. Coming up close behind is Swiss band November-7. Nightwish's "Storytime" moves up 8 this week after starting out last week at #15.

New rips this week include the newest from acapella metallers Van Canto, and an entry from a band from Kazakhstan. It's not Urker, who hit here afew years ago with "Tugan Elim," but their name does begin with "U." Please welcome Ulytau, whose name means "Holy Mountain." The trio features electric guitar, violin, and dombra, a traditional Kazakh instrument. Although there are no vocals, check out how they put it all together for an updated version of the Bach piece for organ, "Toccata and Fugue."
