Dramatical increase in popularity for Bomb: From place 10 last year, it moved up to place 2, replacing The Black Lotus, whose latest productions such as Contour have not impressed the scene much. Three newcomers managed to enter the top ten, throwing Doomsday, Trauma, and Quad out of the chart. These three groups, TPOLM, Smash, and Halcyon, have been active in the scene for a longer time, but their latest productions obviously caused a both vast and fast increase in popularity.

The only really inactive group in this chart is the Future Crew. This, however, might change again in August, when Assembly '99 will take place in Helsinki.
