RedundantIdiot Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 In this weeks UK rock album chart, Revolution Radio has climbed 16 places from #28 to #12. American Idiot has also benefited from the recent UK gigs as it has climbed 13 places from #22 to #9. Dookie has re-entered the rock album chart at #37.

MillenniumFan Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Yeah Hyde Park definetely helped. Does anyone know wether RevRad might now have a chance of passing 100k sold copies in the UK soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montclare Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 The thing I'd like to know more about is album re-certification. When was the last time they checked on older albums like Insomniac, Nimrod, etc? If I remember correctly, books that were written on Green Day in the American Idiot era had those albums at the same number Wikipedia has them at today. You figure they have to have sold more in the past decade. How do they keep track of that? I read on a different band's messageboard that the band or label has to request a recounting. Whether or not that's true, I have no idea, but it makes no sense. You'd think it'd be automatically done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says that Insomniac has sold 2.9 million copies in the US, Nimrod has sold 2.6 million in the US and Warning at 1.4 million while https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Day_discography still shows Insomniac and Nimrod at 2.1 million copies and Warning at 1.2 million. It also shows Dookie at 11.9 million in the US and AI at 6.6 million in the US while wikipedia shows them at 10m and 6.1m respectively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That also reminds me- I also find it strange that on the Wikipedia site, it has Warning at 1.2 million, but only certified as Gold, not Platinum.

CherryBombs&Gasoline Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I think chartmasters.org is quite reliable when it comes to record sales. Sure, it's not an "official" page, but the sales numbers that they publish seem realistic and they also take streaming into account. According to them, RevRad has sold 700k copies worldwide as of march 2017. That's not that bad if you consider the fact that record sales in general are decreasing. Uno has sold a bit more than one million copies, but it was released almost five years ago, so 700k sounds good to me. All the other numbers on that page sound realistic as well. It was updated a couple of month ago which may explain the differences in comparison to some of the sources on Wikipedia. I think they are just a bit older.

pacejunkie punk Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 That means it should easily reach 1 million sales by the end of the year I would think. That's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas01 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Still, just imagine how a concert movie would have helped the album.... Isn't it normal that when you release a new album you want to promote it with footage / full movie? So during AI we had Bullet in a bible, during 21st CB we had awesome as fuck, and during the trilogy we had quatro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So following that logic I would say we have something to look forward to at the end of this tour. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
