STONE SOUR’s 2017 opus, Hydrograd, rocketed up global charts upon release, debuting at #1 on three Billboard rundowns: ‘Top Current Albums,’ ‘Top Rock Albums,’ and ‘Top Hard Rock Albums.’ It also debuted at #8 on the ‘Billboard 200,’ marking the band’s fifth consecutive Top 10 debut. Hydrograd also racked up a #5 debut in the U.K. (the band’s highest ever UK chart ranking), #2 in Australia (highest debut ever), and was Top 5 in Germany, Japan, and Switzerland. The album featured the singles St. Marie, Rose Red Violent Blue (This Song Is Dumb & So Am I) and the smash Song #3, which was #1 for five straight weeks on U.S. Active Rock Radio chart.
STONE SOUR unleashed their eponymous debut album in 2002 and were immediately acknowledged as one of the most significant new hard rock outfits of the 21st century when the release earned RIAA gold certification and singles Get Inside and Inhale each received GRAMMY® Award nominations for ‘Best Metal Performance.’ Come What(ever) May followed in 2006, making an even bigger splash, debuting on the Top 5 debut of the SoundScan/Billboard 200, plus a #1 entry on Billboard’s ‘Rock Albums’ chart. The acclaimed collection spawned yet another GRAMMY®-nominated single in 30/30-150, whilst stacking up another RIAA gold certification. Come What(ever) May birthed a series of rock radio classics, including Sillyworld, Made of Scars, the #1 hit, Through Glass, which spent seven weeks atop Billboard’s ‘Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks,’ while also reaching #2 on ‘Alternative Songs’ and a Top 40 slot on the overall ‘Hot 100.’ The song’s companion video is also a fan favourite, with over 72 million views to date on YouTube alone.
STONE SOUR’s 2012 sister LPs, the colossal House of Gold & Bones – Part 1 and House of Gold & Bones – Part 2, both made Top 10 debuts on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 just six months adrift of each other.
