Posted February 14, 200718 yr Source: mardy-bum.com Figures released in the last few days have shown that Arctic Monkeys debut album 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' managed to shift 900,000 copies. The band - currently signed to independant label Domino - recorded the fastest-selling debut album of all time which also went triple platinum. Although the album was beaten by Snow Patrol's 'Open Eyes', the Northern Irish/Scottish 5-piece are signed to major label. 2006 was almost a revival for 'Indie' music as almost a third of all gold albums (100,000 sales or more) and more than two-thirds of silver albums (60,000 sales or more) were by artists signed to Independant labels.
February 15, 200718 yr They mean 'Eyes Open' by Snow Patrol :P We all knew from the start that it'd be up there as it was hard to see anyone beat the sales they had ^_^
