BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE's 'Scream' Enters BILLBOARD Chart At No. 4

February 6, 2008

The new BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE album, "Scream Aim Fire", sold 53,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 4 on The Billboard 200 chart. BULLET's first-week sales total is only eight thousand copies less than that of this week's chart-topper, ALICIA KEYS, whose No. 1 album is said to be the lowest-selling in modern chart history.

"Scream Aim Fire", has achieved the following first-week chart positions so far:

Japan: #1
Germany: #3
Australia: #4
USA: #4
United Kingdom: #5

A No. 4 debut might be sweet for BULLET singer Matt Tuck, who told The Pulse of Radio that making the disc was a difficult process. "Yeah, totally, every day for the last eight months, prior to it getting actually mixed and mastered and finished, it was like just a never-ending struggle every day, really," he said. "But, you know, it's definitely worth the work."

The CD follows up the group's acclaimed 2006 full-length debut, "The Poison", which has sold more than 375,000 copies in the U.S.

BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE will join AVENGED SEVENFOLD and ATREYU on this winter's Taste of Chaos tour beginning on February 29 in Denver.
