==The Official Kerrang!rock chart==
During the 1980s, Kerrang! published weekly heavy metal charts for singles, albums and import albums. Each was compiled from sales data from fifty specialist stores across the United Kingdom.

In March 2012, Kerrang! announced a new weekly rock singles chart for the UK based on upon airplay across Kerrang Radio, Kerrang TV, and specialist rock radio stations, as well as sales figures from the [[Official Charts Company]]. As of 2020, the chart continues to be printed in the magazine every week, contains 20 tracks, and often features accompanying facts or artist quotes. The official Kerrang [[Spotify]] profile also features a playlist of the tracks on the chart and is updated every Wednesday.<ref>https://www.kerrang.com/the-news/the-kerrang-rock-chart-1/ {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190408095937/https://www.kerrang.com/the-news/the-kerrang-rock-chart-1/ |date=8 April 2019 }} Kerrang! Rock Chart, 28 November 2018</ref> The chart was announced on Saturday mornings on Kerrang! Radio and could be viewed online every Saturday at midday. The chart would also be shown on Kerrang! TV on Thursdays at 4 pm.

Unlike the [[UK Rock & Metal Singles and Albums Charts|UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart]] produced by the Official Charts Company, which is typically dominated by classic rock artists, the Kerrang! Rock Chart focuses primarily on new releases by contemporary rock artists.
