BLACK VEIL BRIDES: 'Set The World On Fire' Projected To Sell 20K-25K First Week

June 17, 2011

"Set The World On Fire", the sophomore album from Los Angeles theatrical dark rockers BLACK VEIL BRIDES, is likely to sell between 20,000 and 25,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release, according to industry web site Hits Daily Double. The estimate was based on one-day sales reports compiled after the record arrived in stores on June 14 via Lava Music/Universal Republic Records.

BLACK VEIL BRIDES' debut album, "We Stitch These Wounds", sold nearly 11,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 36 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD was released on July 20, 2010 via Standby Records.

"Everything is bigger more songs, more vocals, more melodies," proclaims vocalist Andy Biersack. "And it all came naturally; it's not an attempt to try to outdo our first record, but we wanted to show how we had naturally grown as a band and as songwriters. This is my favorite record I've ever made and most importantly, the best album anybody's ever made."

As previously reported, BLACK VEIL BRIDES will take part in a signing session and performance this coming Saturday, June 18 at Hot Topic in Hollywood, California.
