Re: Chinese Democracy Chart Positions Thread
With all do respect Axlin, cause you know I respect yah, but your posts on PJ are just fucking ridiculous.
I don't have to argue any point you've made, which are all wrong. PJ's track record speaks for itself. Ignore it all you want.
They've only had one album that sold under 700,000 in the US and that happened in 2004, not 1995. Their first album that didn't sell a million in the US was in 2000. Not 1995. Their current album debuted at #1. And when they have an arena tour they actually sell it out.
They aren't in the same boat as GNR. They're not even in the same fucking ocean.
Grunge ended when all those bands QUIT in 95. No one booted them out. PJ went on and had a very successful career post grunge, without releasing videos or pop oriented singles. They were successful based soley on their music.
PJ's track record does speak for itself.

Since Vitalogy. Nobody has cared since 1994.
This was a band that used to go several-times Plat. a record, just like GN'R. The amazing thing is, new Guns, with an entirely different band, a store-exclusive and NO promo, can still do PJ record sales. Granted, PJ doesn't do promo either. But it's still way more than Axl. They still license music for commercials, perform on late night shows, do interviews, etc. They just don't do videos.

Some of this conversation is fucking retarded! Pearl Jam play to sold out arenas all over the world. Pearl Jam has a massive following whether anyone wants to admit it or not.
Honestly some of you sound like complete fucking clowns the way you're talking about Pearl Jam.

ABBA looks pretty badass in that picture.
ABBA is badass.
I'd know. I'm Swedish.
Re: Chinese Democracy Chart Positions Thread
Their entire catalog combined has sold less than AFD...
Wrong. Afd shipped 18 million in the US according to the RIAA. Pearl Jam's entire catalog has shipped 31 million. Let's not let the real facts get in the way of a good argument.
