More first week chart positions have surfaced for MÖTLEY CRÜE's new album, Saints Of Los Angeles. The album has charted in the following positions:

Australia - #14

Finland - #9

Sweden - #5

USA - #4

Saints of Los Angeles is loosely based on the band’s bestselling book, The Dirt, which is a must-read rock and roll tome of which Ray Hogan, San Antonio Express-News said, “The Dirt might be the wildest rock ‘n’ roll story ever told. It’s not only remarkable that the group’s four members are alive to recount -and actually remember- their sordid history, but disturbingly appropriate that they do so unrelentingly... For a band that wore their vices like a badge of honor, there’s still enough uncovered dirt to make this hard to put down.”

The CD takes these tales and puts them to classic Mötley music. The book is also scheduled to become a much-anticipated movie but has been held up in the process.

The CD is released on Mötley Records/Eleven Seven Music, returning control to the band who also received the rights to all of their master recordings.

The inaugural season of the Crüe Fest tour began July 1st in West Palm Beach, FL, and features Mötley Crüe, BUCKCHERRY, PAPA ROACH, SIXX:A.M., and TRAPT. Tickets, band profiles and exclusive content from all of the Crüe Fest bands will consistently be uploaded at www.therockvine.com. In conjunction with the tour, Best Buy is exclusively selling a Crüe Fest Compilation featuring all five tour headliners as well as THE EXIES, MARION RAVEN, DROWNING POOL and CHOSEN SON. The set was almost sold out of its limited pressing before the tour even began.
