March 13, 2017According to Billboard, NICKELBACK's "All The Right Reasons" album has been certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association Of America (RIAA),for sales and streams of ten million units in the United States.
"We're very thankful to have an album that so many people have appreciated," said guitarist Ryan Peake in a statement. "We never imagined this would be possible and for that we are humbled and so grateful 10 million times over. We are honored to have reached this milestone with 'All The Right Reasons', none of which would be possible without all the amazing people that have supported us."
Frontman Chad Kroeger added: "When we started this band, never in our wildest imagination did we ever think we would get a label deal and put a record out, get a song on the radio, tour outside of our home territory and be gifted with the opportunity to meet so many amazing friends, supporters and talented musicians the world over along the way. These were all just dreams that three guys from Hanna, Alberta never could have fathomed. Thank you to everyone that has embraced 'All The Right Reasons' in their own way. To this day, it remains a very special album to us and we are truly humbled to all of you for making every dream we could have hoped for come true."
The RIAA diamond certification blends traditional album sales (one album sale equals one unit),tracks sold from an album (10 tracks sold equals one unit) and on-demand audio and/or video streams (1,500 streams equals one unit).
