WITHIN TEMPTATION's Let Us Burn DVD Debuts On Billboard Chart
December 3, 2014, 10 years ago
Thanks to the overwhelming fan support in the US, Dutch symphonic rockers Within Temptation have gone back-to-back-to-back with American Billboard chart debuts, and their star continues to rise over the west.
This past February, the band’s sixth studio album Hydra debuted at #16 on the American Billboard Top 200 Albums. Two weeks ago, the 2-in-1 reissued version of Within Temptation‘s long out-of-print full-length debut album Enter (1997) and The Dance EP (1998) debuted at #98 on the American Billboard Hard Rock chart. Today, their Let Us Burn: Elements & Hydra Live In Concert DVD has debuted at #41 on the American Billboard Hard Music chart.
That’s three separate releases in a ten month span resulting in three debuts on the American Billboard charts.
In baseball-speak, they’re 3-for-3 with a 1.000 batting average In basketball terms, they boast a 100% three-point field goal percentage. In the football world, they’ve scored three consecutive touchdown passes to win the Super Bowl of Music. God bless America.
Shot and recorded in front of 15,000 fans at the Sportpaleis in Antwerp, Belgium in 2012 to commemorate their 15th anniversary and at the last show of their European Hydra arena tour at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Let Us Burn: Elements & Hydra Live In Concert are two dynamic evenings with Within Temptation, as they perform their most requested career-spanning compositions plus new music from their latest Billboard/world-charting album, Hydra, to arena crowds.
