METALLICA’s Hardwired… To Self-Destruct Surpasses 1 Million Copies Sold In The US
July 7, 2017, 7 years ago
Metallica’s Hardwired… To Self-Destruct album lands at #123 on the latest Billboard 200 album chart (dated July 15th). With another 4,000 copies sold in the latest tracking week, Hardwired… To Self-Destruct surpasses 1 million in total US sales, as its to-date sum rises to a little more than 1,004,000.
The former #1 set is the band's 12th album to sell at least a million copies since Nielsen Music began tracking sales in 1991. Some of Hardwired's sales were driven by a well-received concert ticket/album bundle sale redemption promotion with the band’s stadium tour.
In total, the group has sold 58 million albums in the US in the Nielsen Music era, and owns the overall top-selling album of that span of time: its self-titled 1991 release, with 16.6 million sold.
