Originally posted by fridayteenage 235k debut for their last album isn't amazing.

They had like zero hits and opened with numbers that not even artists with multiple top ten hits were able to open. How is that bad for them?

Foo Fighters > your basic faves

Foo Fighters (1995) 1,468,000

Colour & The Shape (1997) 2,342,000 (874,000 more copies than their debut)

There Is Nothing Left To Lose (1999) 1,311,000 (1,031,000 copies less than C&TS)

One By One (2002) 1,333,000 (22,000 copies more than TINLTL)

In Your Honor (2005) 1,442,000 (109,000 copies more than OBO)

Echoes Silence Patience & Grace (2007) 916,000 (526,000 copies less than IYH)

Wasting Light (2011) 640,000 (276,000 copies less than ESP&G)

hmmm i wonder how SH will do. HDD said that is going to open around 200k-250k so i think they will probably do Wasting Light numbers again

Originally posted by fridayteenage Well their albums are overall better-reviewed than Coldplay or Beyonce on MC. Worse than Taylor tho.

Originally posted by Superpower I never said CP and Bey were better than them though. Drag me for things I've never said

Originally posted by theus231 Metacritic isn't a good indication of acclaim. I don't get why ATRL uses it.

Originally posted by Superpower Should we look at Grammys instead? Bey (17) > Foo Fighters (11) > CP and Taylor (7) >>>> faves of people asking who are the FF.

This > Metacritic if you're looking for something more "accurate" in terms of critical acclaim.
