In September, Eleven Seven Music/Atlantic Records hard rock band Buckcherry, the next great American rock band, scored its first Top 10 album on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 album chart with Black Butterfly, the much-anticipated follow-up to 2006’s RIAA-certified platinum 15. Black Butterfly debuted at No. 8 on the chart as the highest debuting rock album spurring hits like “Sorry” and “Crazy Bitch”. If you liked 15, you’ll love Black Butterfly with tracks like “Rescue Me” and “Don’t Go Away.” Rave reviews included People magazine (“Buckcherry keeps letting it rip,” 3/4 stars) and the Associated Press (“There’s no denying it, Buckcherry is what in-your-face rock ‘n’ roll is all about.”).
Avenged Sevenfold’s breakthrough 2005 Warner Bros. debut, City Of Evil, featured the wildly popular single “Bat Country.” After the success of City Of Evil they became the only band to headline Warped Tour and Ozzfest while simultaneously hitting No. 1 on MTV’s TRL. The band’s current release is 2007’s Avenged Sevenfold.
