Posted July 29, 200717 yr It has debuted at 11 this evening, a tad lower than the midweek top 5, though it was only roughly 3k off, and only a couple of hundred off the top 10 (bloody Rihanna). Do we think this could be a slow burner a la "Garbage" and "Version 2.0" or a out-of-the-top-75-within-a-month like "Beautiful" or "Bleed Like Me"?
July 31, 200717 yr #11, that is such an annoying position. :( I sadly see this sliding VERY fast in the coming weeks.
August 3, 200717 yr Author Bleed Like Me went top 5 over there so I believe, so yeah it's a HUGE climbdown. I can only guess it's because Garbage have NEVER really been a singles act over there perhaps?
August 4, 200717 yr ^Because of the poor promotion... <_< The start is always (pretty) good but they don't manage to stay high in the charts (except Garbage & Version 2.0 era) They were a singles act during Garbage and Version 2.0; just look at the amount of singles released: - Garbage era - 6 singles including Subhuman (also a limited edition of 1000 "Vow" singles with metalic case) - Version 2.0 era - 6 singles After beautifulgarbage the things aren't so good regarding charts... :unsure:
August 4, 200717 yr i agree about the poor promotion :( really is a let down as the album has much more potential
August 4, 200717 yr No promo in the US (or extremely little) = #68 <_< AG got to #6 in the Scottish charts so top 10 like they deserve somewhere at least!! I think the album will go up in the US charts and unfortunatly down in the UK charts :(
August 5, 200717 yr Author Down to #27. Looks like it's definitely gone for the drop-like-a-stone route. Expect it to vanish from the top 75 before the end of August L(
August 6, 200717 yr Since my top 30 prediction was right :lol: I'll say Top 45 next week, Top 70 the week after.
August 9, 200717 yr ABSOLUTE GARBAGE # 23 IN AUSTRALIA... !!!! not bad..... yeah! As I know Garbage has a strong fanbase in Australia. I know also Cherry Lips was a big hit for years in this country Just look at this live performance in Sydney when Garbage performed live a song (guess what song? :P ) njtNuJ_Ri4U Not bad at all ^_^ Think that needs to get added to the pinned chart topic :D Added at chart runs and discography (Compilations -> Absolute Garbage) Edited August 9, 200717 yr by Alin
