Report: MÖTLEY CRÜE Still Hitting Charts For The First Time After More Than 40 Years

Mötley Crüe returned last week with their first new single in years, and fans snapped the tune up in huge sums, reports Forbes. The rock band’s “Dogs Of War” has become a fast hit on a number of Billboard charts, bringing the group back to a number of tallies after a hiatus. The song even helps them hit a ranking that many would assume they’d ruled many times in the past.

“Dogs Of War” debuts at #3 on the latest edition of the "Hot Hard Rock Songs" chart. Billboard publishes the tally each week to show which tracks in the genre have performed the best, using a methodology that combines sales, streams, and radio airplay. The latest from the Crüe succeeded across all of those metrics, which leads to its lofty starting point.

Believe it or not, but “Dogs Of War” is the first hit for Mötley Crüe on the "Hot Hard Rock Songs" chart. While they may be one of the most recognizable and beloved names in the genre, they’re only just now arriving on this roster.
