Bat Starts To Sell Again...

Kev · 01 Mar 2010, 12:11

... In at number 173 this week with sale of 1,108 - Bat Out Of Hell - taking sales of that version (revamped) to 604,570. It is also 128 on the download chart.

STILL in the charts (and has been since its release) at number 97 - Piece of the Action - 1,937 sales last week - a massive 87,422 since it was released. This is an amazing figure as it was just expected to be another cheap collection of Meaty songs.

A sales boost following Meat's singing on Popstar to Operastar perhaps?

Lucky79 · 01 Mar 2010, 12:16

that could be a reason...one of my friends just bought the entire album when he heard BOOH on Popstar to Operastar

Can only be good news. I hope the label see these figures, realize Meat is one of the not-too-many older artists people are willing to spend money on and give the new album the push that I'm sure it deserves.

It'll be really cool if HCTB and Bat were in the charts at the same time.

Totaly agree

*AndyK* · 01 Mar 2010, 15:30

I'm fairly certain they would be ... a new Meat album generally results in a rise in sales for Bat.
