LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ ABC PR) The fans have spoken and as a result, SEVENDUST has scored their first-ever #1 on the Billboard charts, taking over the "Top Hard
Music Albums" chart next week. BLACK OUT THE SUN-released March 26 on the band's own 7Bros. Records in conjunction with ADA Label Services--is the Atlanta band's best-selling album in its first week since 2007's ALPHA.
Elsewhere in Billboard, BLACK OUT THE SUN will debut at #18 on the "Top 200 Albums" chart, #4 on the "Record Label Independent Current Albums" chart, #5 on the "Top Current Rock Albums" chart, #14 on the "Overall
Digital Albums" chart and #17 on the "Top
Internet Albums" chart.
The album's first single, "Decay," is currently bulleted on the BDS Active Rock Chart at #11 and the Mediabase Active Rock chart at #12. It has also spent the past four weeks in the #1 spot on SiriusXM's "Big Uns" countdown on the Octane active rock channel. A video for the track premiered on FUSE's website (https://on.fuse.tv/11DDWOY) last week, and can now be seen on the band's official YouTube page (https://www.youtube.com/officialsevendust).
SEVENDUST--Lajon Witherspoon (vocals),
Morgan Rose (drums/vocals), Clint Lowery (guitar/vocals), John Connolly (guitar/vocals) and Vince Hornsby (bass/vocals)--continues to prove why they're the hardest touring band in Rock today as they criss-cross the U.S. on their co-headlining tour with Coal Chamber (along with
