It’s official - Billboard has confirmed that Twenty One Pilots’ ‘Breach’ is the No.1 album in America.
It is the biggest opening week for any rock album in the US for six years with 200,000 certified units. This included 169,000 traditional albums sold, making it the band’s biggest sales week ever.
It is TOP’s second No.1 on the Billboard 200 Chart following ‘Blurryface’ in 2015.
welp
Breach went #1.
why did this make me so happy i teared up a little? NOT A LOT. a little.
10 years ago i didn’t even really understand what a #1 album meant, but then ever since blurryface i kind of really wanted it again, but never got it.
then i stopped wanting it and just wrote an album for you. for us.
and that’s when you guys showed up bigger than ever. you did this. buying vinyl, or a box set, or going to listening events, or streaming and telling other people. thank you so much.
this is the most proud i’ve ever been to be a part of this band.
if you only knew how many industry people are confused right now.
wait, what? yeah. we did.
