New STP Album Debuts At ......

[Core76]

STONE TEMPLE PILOTS' new self-titled album sold 62,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at No. 2 on this week's The Billboard 200 chart.

"Stone Temple Pilots" marks the sixth top 10 for the band — its entire output of studio albums. Only its greatest hits package "Thank You" missed the top 10 (No. 26 in 2003).

The group's self-titled sixth album is its first all-new effort since 2001's "Shangri-La-Dee-Da".

The effort features the following track listing:

01. Between The Lines
02. Take A Load Off
03. Huckleberry Crumble
04. Hickory Dichotomy
05. Dare If You Dare
06. Cinnamon
07. Hazy Daze
08. Bagman
09. Peacoat
10. Fast As I Can
11. First Kiss On Mars
12. Maver


Found this article at Blabbermouth.net.   Wasn't sure if anyone had posted anything on here yet about the album's billboard debut or not.

I dunno about that. No. 4 didn't sell much more than 100k it's first week.

62,000 is completely respectable, especially in these times, and 9 years out from their last album. Not many bands could pull off a number 2 album after that many years dormant.

I think it'll get to number 1 once we get another single. Speaking of which.... They should do that soon.

Yeah, but Napster came around 1999 and that killed album sales.
