Sevendust Enter Billboard At #14
This week SEVENDUST will enter the Billboard Top 200 at #14 on sales of 67,049 units of their fourth album Seasons. This marks the band¹s biggest debut week in units scanned as well as chart position. Seasons will also enter the Hard Music Albums chart at #1 and the Independent Albums chart at #1. Sevendust¹s last disc Animosity, released on November 11, 2001 debuted at #28 with 61,394 units. All of the band¹s previous three albums have been certified Gold by the R.I.A.A.
"This is a great artist development story," said Paul Burgess, Senior Vice President of Marketing at TVT Records. "Even with major trend shifts in rock music over the past two years, Sevendust returns bigger than ever."
Seasons is being fueled by the hit rock single "Enemy" which the band will perform on NBC¹s Last Call with Carson Daly on November 7. Hard rock bible Metal Edge Magazine in early praise of the album said: "Seasons is a mandatory record of 2003. The perfect junction of mosh pit madness and radio friendly opuses." Sevendust will be featured on the cover of the next issue of the Metal Edge, hitting newsstands in early November.
Sevendust is currently on a national tour with Staind that will run though November and will begin headlining in December and all through 2004.
