Axl In Lafayette Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Former SKID ROW frontman Sebastian Bach's new solo album, "Angel Down", sold 6,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 190 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD is Sebastian's follow-up to 1999's "Bring 'Em Bach Alive", which has shifted 19,300 units in the U.S. to date, according to Nielsen SoundScan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantheman Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 That sounds about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 So I guess having Axl on his cd DID help sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDeeds Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) 6,400 copies lands you on the Billboard top 200...... DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON.......Holy crap.I will now officially shoot to death anybody downloading officially released music.

Axl In Lafayette Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Man, CD sales have just dried up and gone away, 15 years ago he probably would have sold something like 10 times this number. When Chinese Democracy comes out, it won't sell more than 100,000 copies in its 1st/biggest week either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelica Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) As someone who is highly cynical about Axl's present and future commercial viability, even I'm really suprised how dismal that figure is, considering his contribution. Which can't be a good thing. Edited November 28, 2007 by Angelica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 15 years ago he probably would have sold something like 10 times this number.True, because in 1992 people actually cared about who Sebastian Bach was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlsfury Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 A radio worthy hit would have helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADPT Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 That's quite unexpected. I must admit the album was growing on me, and I was considering picking it up despite all the bullshit that came with it. I really should now.On the other hand, this might make Bach stop proclaiming endlessly about Axl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SylvesterStallone Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Dang... I think even MC Hammer's last album sold more. At this rate, Bach will be playing at dive bars soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepsun Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 There's actually something wrong with that...My friend tried to buy his CD last week at HMV, and they told her they didn't haven't yet, even though it was the release date....

Elnombre Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Serves him right.For what? Putting out an album? Hey, he achieved something that the guy who's ass he's licking hasn't managed in 14 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyMonk Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) Might have something to do with the tiny amount of stores it's in....and because no one knows who Sebastian Bach (and Axl Rose to an extent) are anymore.
