Don't get me wrong...I'm not saying this in an endorsement for the albums contained within, but I did find it interesting to see how much heavy music (without getting into a genre-fight) was charting on Billboard top 200 this week.
#9 - Megadeth "Endgame"
#35 - Shadows Fall "Retribution"
#43 - Black Dahlia Murder "Deflorate"
#46 - Every Time I Die "New Junk Aesthetic"
#47 - Thrice "Beggars"
#133 - Kittie (WTF?!) "In the Black" [How the FUCK are these people still alive?]
#150 - Rise Against "Appeal to Reason"
#161 - Living Colour "The Chair In The Doorway" [In before 'my favorite black metal band' joke]
#168 - Dying Fetus "Descend Into Depravity"
#186 - Killswitch Engage (Self-titled)
#200 - Slipknot "All Hope is Gone"
I honestly didn't think THAT many people liked ETID or Dying Fetus. Shows WTF I know.
