Daisy album sales

[Ari Christos]

How much will Brand New's album Daisy sell?

Edit: In the first week, is what I meant to say.

[schaft0620]

I say about 55k

[SomedayTheFire]

40 to 50k

[walshknilb281]

58,000

[zubinmoosa]

28k

[vincelac]

If Oasis can sell 53,000 copies in the first week and debut at number 5, I think Brand New can sell 62k
Err'body hates Oasis (except me), and no one even knows that they made more than one song
Err'body loves Brand New (including me), and everyone knows allllll of their songs.

[Ari Christos]

28k

Thank you.

What the hell? Who the hell is "everyone?" This website? Oasis is, not even arguably, way bigger than Brand New probably ever will be.

[vincelac]

Thank you.

I only know one person (irl) who likes Oasis. Oasis in the UK is fucking huge. In America though, most people only know Wonderwall, and that song wasn't on Dig Out Your Soul

EDIT: But I honestly don't have a clue to what I'm talking about. I just used the only other band I follow this closely as a comparison.

[MyWorldEntire]

35k

[boysandbulletsx]

More than 50k may be considered wishful thinking. I like to think that way.

except even my grandad knows who oasis are, 95% ppl our age would have never have heard of Brand New

[Gardenhead]

Album will sell 14 copies, 9 of those will be purchased by Kevin Devine.

[Broden Terry]

I'm thinking between 30k - 40k :shrug:

[Piss]

what about the other five?

[introduction]

that'd be me.
i say 50k hopefully. it's most likely to be about 35k though i think.

[AussieBoy]

what about the other five?

john nolan

[Paulb-182]

I take it this means first week... I'm guessing between 40 and 50

[WhoSaidThat?]

between 10-20. That should've been an option.

Oasis sell out arena tours worldwide, including the U.S.

[Paulb-182]

Oasis are way bigger everywhere than Brand New will ever be. I guess it would be best to stop comparing them.

[Gardenhead]

what about the other five?
Jesse Lacey, Sherri DePree, Aaron Weiss, Casey Crescenzo, and Andy Hull.

uhh the popularity between Oasis and the precious Brand New arent even comparable. Brand New will never be as big as they are

[NateFoundGlory]

Outside of AP, Brand New isn't really quite as popular. I'm saying between 15-25, maybe. I would actually love to be wrong, though.

[zachff]

In its history as an album? From now until the Sun explodes and encompasses the Earth? +50K

[AussieBoy]

there is no way they will sell over 50K because Hot Mess. new Cobra album, only sold 45K and they have a HUGE single right now. I''m guessing they'll sell about 15-20k.

By the way Devil and God debuted at number 31. Anyone know how much it sold opening week?


i would say what ever that sold, this will sell exactly the same.. they havnt gained many new fans through a hit single or anything just the same cult following that will continued to buy it first day

[vincelac]

uhh the popularity between Oasis and the precious Brand New arent even comparable. Brand New will never be as big as they are
Would you say that the popularity between Oasis and Rise Against are comparable?

[BulleTheory]

Album will sell 14 copies, 9 of those will be purchased by Kevin Devine.
i loled

[BulleTheory]

Would you say that the popularity between Oasis and Rise Against are comparable?
no, but i think Rise Against is more popular then BN outside of this scene

[BulleTheory]

what about the other five?
Jason Tate.

[AussieBoy]

Would you say that the popularity between Oasis and Rise Against are comparable?

whats Rise Against got to do with the price of rice in China??

but yeah they r bigger than BN

[Machu505]

Huge lols at comparing Oasis's success to Brand New's.

[vincelac]

no, but i think Rise Against is more popular then BN outside of this scene
If Rise Against's popularity doesn't even compare to Oasis, why is it that they released their albums the same week, but Rise Against got the number 3 spot, and Oasis got the number 5 spot. I went to see Oasis last December in Camden at the Susquehanna Bank Center. They were there for one night, half the place was empty. Oasis is my favorite band, they are very popular in Europe, but not so much in the United States.
I know Oasis sold 500,000 tickets in one day for their stadium tour in Europe this summer.
I know a lot of places weren't close to selling out in America.
I know a good amount about Oasis.
They aren't very popular in America.

And I'm not trying to say Brand New is/was/ever will be more successful than Oasis. I'm saying at the current time, I wouldn't be surprised if Brand New was more popular than Oasis in America.

all you have to do is go up to anyone and play wonderwall...i bet most people know what it is

Direct from wikipedia:
The album debuted at number 31 on the U.S. Billboard 200 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_200), selling about 60,000 copies in its first week.

Who knows how reliable that info is, and the reference link doesn't work.
But if it's true, then things are looking good for brand new

[Pawan1993]

Optimistic thinking FTW!!!

[fran.182]

If this is about its first week sales, I will say 48k.

[vincelac]

all you have to do is go up to anyone and play wonderwall...i bet most people know what it is
Yeah, play Wonderwall, then ask them to name 5 other songs.
Just because someone knows a band's hit from the nineties doesn't mean they will go out and buy their CD.

I'm sure Dig Out Your Soul has sold more than Appeal to Reason by now considering it's sold more than 2 million copies. I get what you're saying though, Oasis are at the tail end of their career and their popularity isn't as high as it used to be.

[muchoawesomeo]

how many users are on here?

[Ari Christos]

I edited the first post to say "in the first week." Sorry for any mix up.

If Brand New sold 60,000 in their first week last time, considering it's been 3 years later, I'll bet that their sales will be about halved this time around.

[BulleTheory]

Yeah, play Wonderwall, then ask them to name 5 other songs.

youd be surprised my friend.

[TreyForest]

It gonna be way less then devil and god
To me, Brand New lost a lot of fans with that record. Like i love it but the songs are structured weirdly, alot slower, less hooks and lots of insteumental in it. Deja had alot more songs that could stand on there own that were more structured and more poppy (i mean compared to devil and god) and I feel alot of people that bought devil and god were expecting more of the same thing. Gonna go like 35 k sold first week

[TreyForest]

lol I love the comparisons of oasis to rise against and brand new
Oasis's last record that they realeased last year sold more then bnew and rise against discography combined
and thats by a band thats in the twilight years and more a legacy band

I'm talking about in America. As of May 2009, Dig Out Your Soul sold 116,000 copies in America.
But I'll give you some numbers to make it easier.
In America:
Oasis's Standing on the Shoulder of Giants sold 208,000
Oasis's Heathen Chemistry sold 154,000
Oasis's Don't Believe the Truth sold about 200,000
Oasis's Dig Out Your Soul sold 116,000
Total = 676,000

Now here is Brand New...
Deja Entendu was certified gold in may 2007, gold means 500,000 albums sold.
The Devil and God sold around 60,000 in the first week
That (outdated) total is 560,000.

So the last two Brand New albums sold only about 100,000 less than the last four Oasis albums in America. Standing on the Shoulder of Giants was released in 2000, one year before Your Favorite Weapon. So not counting the first Brand New album, only using the first week sales of the Devil and God, and Oasis being the huge band they are, why is it that they only sold 100,000 more albums, with the scales tipped this far in their favor? Deja Entendu alone outsold the last three Oasis albums in America. My favorite band is Oasis, but I'll be the first to admit that they aren't very popular in America, at least they aren't anymore.

It took three years for Deja to go gold.

[vincelac]

It took three years for Deja to go gold.
Yeah, it took Deja three years to go gold, so if Oasis are so popular in America, why is it that none of the albums they've released in the past decade have gone gold within three years, six years, or even nine years in the case of Standing on the Shoulder of Giants?

[Ari Christos]

Don't know, don't care. This poll is for first week sales. Oasis could release an album without announcing ten days before it's release and still sell more in the first week because they're more known, more popular. Brand New don't promote their album, don't do press in the US, and don't get nearly as much airplay as Oasis still do, even to this day.

I think you're wrong.
But, it doesn't really matter. What I'm arguing is that Brand New is currently more popular than Oasis in the US, and if I'm correct, it'll show in the album sales. If Daisy outsells Dig Out Your Soul, then it will prove my point even more.

[Ari Christos]

Who the fuck cares if Brand New is more popular in the US than Oasis? Why is Oasis even being compared to them in this poll? The comparison is irrelevant. Would you like to make a poll to see what AP thinks? Fuck it, I'm doing it anyways.

Edit: Don't mean to sound like a dick, by the way. Not trying to attack you at all.

[Chop[chop]]

Won't sell as little as 10k.
Won't sell as much as 50k.

[_><_]

12k

I compared the two because Oasis is the only other band I follow this closely, and based on what I see going about my day, Brand New seems to be more popular. So I used the album sales of Oasis to judge my opinion about how much the album would sell, and I wanted to state my reasoning behind my estimation as opposed to just saying a number and leaving it at that.
No offense was taken.

Seems more fair than, wasn't completely aware to the comparison. But, we'll see come time September. Looking forward to seeing the results.

Judging a band's popularity off album sales is pointless. You clearly have no idea how the average American music listener acquires music. If you believe that a band's only fans are the ones that buy the album (not saying this is what you think), then your research is strongly flawed and everyone else in this poll (myself included) can't take your points seriously.

I'm also judging the popularity from shows. I posted regularly on an Oasis forum for about a year. When Oasis toured America, a lot of people posted about how half the places were empty. Most venues they played that tour held a max capacity of 10,000 people. If Brand New sold out two nights at the Electric Factory (holds 3,000 I think?) within a week, with a lot of people who wanted to go not having tickets (I know a lot of people who missed out on buying tickets), it obviously shows something about them being pretty damn popular.
2 x 3,000 = 6,000.
6,000 > +/-5,000.

I was at the Oasis show in Camden, half the place was empty. Shows selling out tend to show something about a band's popularity. I know not all of a band's fans go to shows, but people who aren't fair-weather fans do. Just like people who aren't fair-weather fans buy a band's albums.

I'm not attacking your ability to either A) oddly know bands' record sales and venue occupancies or B) use Wikipedia. Yeah, record sales are a big part in how a band does. Yeah, the live show aspect is too. I'm not ignorant, I know you're not either. This is what helps makes bands big. What I do know is that sitting in this forum tossing out numbers and research and graphs and stuff and things isn't going to lock down popularity. There are too many unseen forces out there that factor into a band's success to make it able for a person like me or you to act like we could completely wrap our brain around a band's popularity. My first post was a little on the asshole side of things, and I apologize for that. I'm just saying, this is the type of stuff that can't be completely locked down by anyone or anything on this website.

I completely agree. Popularity isn't something set in stone, it's open to interpretation, I'm just saying what I see daily, and since that was causing some "lols@oasis being compared to br&new," type posts, I decided to go to Wikipedia and find some album sales numbers to reinforce my point. The venue capacities on the other hand, I did know off the top of my head, haha.
And no worried. I seem like an asshole in half of my posts in this thread, but I'm not really that bad of a guy/

[mena]

I find it hard to believe that 1st week sales will go beyond 35K.

[George-Michael]

does anyone know the first week sales for deja and tdag?

[VIVALAMATT]

If Oasis can sell 53,000 copies in the first week and debut at number 5, I think Brand New can sell 62k
Err'body hates Oasis (except me), and no one even knows that they made more than one song
Err'body loves Brand New (including me), and everyone knows allllll of their songs.

If Oasis can sell 53,000 copies their first week, then Brand New is probably not even going to break 30k.

No one knows who Brand New is compared to Oasis.

[vincelac]

Devil and God sold 60k in the first week.

[VIVALAMATT]

Devil and God sold 60k in the first week.

Yeah but that was following Deja Entendu. Needless to say, it was the height of their popularity. Their shirts were in Hot Topic, rock magazines were promoting it with advertisements, etc. Daisy has sorta been under the radar and hype for this album has only started to spring up recently this summer as the release date drew nearer. It seems like the only promotion they're really doing for it is a couple sets of shows. Plus, record sales for albums 3-4 years ago were much different than today. It's really tough to sell 50+ in a first week nowadays. I'm not saying they won't do it, but I won't be surprised if they don't.

And it's not like it matters. Jesse Lacey doesn't give half a shit about his record sales. The reason why you don't see hella ads for the album or shirts in stores and whatnot is because the band could sell 5 copies and he'll still be happy. He totally understands that many people will probably download the album rather than spend money.

[VIVALAMATT]

Devil and God sold 60k in the first week.

And by the way, the Devil and God was an amazing album. There's no way Daisy will be anywhere near that. You can't replicate perfection.

[vincelac]

Don't judge an album before hearing it. It's like burying someone before they're dead. It never ends well.

[Alex DiVincenzo]

I'd say about 25-30K

[Rob Hrx]

Oh... first week? I'd love to think 50k+, but I have a feeling it may be just below that.

[MyNameIsRoss]

48,764

[AussieBoy]

Coldplay and U2 are more popular than Brand New

:-d

[domotime2]

? i disagree with that.

Most people dont know who brand new is
most people can name an oasis song.

[domotime2]

but with that said...devil and god made 60k first week.......BUT i think their overall popularity is lower now than it was a few years ago, so ill go with the safe 40K answer.

[vincelac]

? i disagree with that.

The numbers show Brand New has been more successful in America than Oasis when it comes to albums sold in the past ten years. Deja Entendu alone has sold more albums than the last three Oasis albums combined in America. I'm not completely sure how many albums The Devil and God sold but I do know that it sold 60k in the first week.

I'll admit 62k is a high guess, I don't think they'll sell that much, but it'd be awesome for them if they did!

[FueledByRock]

I'm talking about in America. As of May 2009, Dig Out Your Soul sold 116,000 copies in America.
But I'll give you some numbers to make it easier.
In America:
Oasis's Standing on the Shoulder of Giants sold 208,000
Oasis's Heathen Chemistry sold 154,000
Oasis's Don't Believe the Truth sold about 200,000
Oasis's Dig Out Your Soul sold 116,000
Total = 676,000

Now here is Brand New...
Deja Entendu was certified gold in may 2007, gold means 500,000 albums sold.
The Devil and God sold around 60,000 in the first week
That (outdated) total is 560,000.

So the last two Brand New albums sold only about 100,000 less than the last four Oasis albums in America.

You didn't even include their biggest album, (What's the Story) Morning Glory?. Come on, you can't be serious.

[vincelac]

You didn't even include their biggest album, (What's the Story) Morning Glory?. Come on, you can't be serious.
Their biggest album released in the middle of the nineties doesn't mean shit about their current popularity or success in America. The numbers show that Brand New has been more successful than Oasis when it came to album sales this entire decade.

Deja sold more than their last three albums combined. (In America. In Europe Oasis sells like crazy.)

As it was discussed in the other thread, success and popularity are two completely different things, you can't base popularity off album sales alone, but you can base success, and it seems as if Brand New has been more successful.

[domotime2]

The numbers show Brand New has been more successful in America than Oasis when it comes to albums sold in the past ten years. Deja Entendu alone has sold more albums than the last three Oasis albums combined in America.

I'll admit 62k is a high guess, I don't think they'll sell that much, but it'd be awesome for them if they did!
well the "scene crowd" is large and vast....but for the most part i'm not sure if the numbers exaclty indicate how popular/well-known each of these bands are. I mean let's be realistic. You poll 1,000 random people from say Philadelphia and you ask them....name a brand new songs vs. name an oasis song. I think oasis would win AND! you would win the have you heard of them poll.

[GamEin]

Ill guess somewhere in the 40s.

Still, popularity and success don't really have to go hand in hand. Oasis was most popular in the 90's, and while the songs from the 90's still remain popular today, it doesn't mean the band itself remains popular and successful. (What's the Story?) Morning Glory sold 308k albums the first week I believe, but Dig Out Your Soul sold 1/6th of that. Their popularity has gone down, most people think they broke up. Sony doesn't do anything to promote them in America because Oasis fucked themselves over by being idiots. (Liam drooling while accepting an award at an award ceremony) So they are less popular and less successful.

So what I'm trying to say is, just because a band has a few popular songs doesn't mean they will sell a lot of albums.

[Undue Noise]

I like the number 27, so I'm going 27K.

[takethisback]

That could be a lot of lyrics sheets.

Yeah, it took Deja three years to go gold, so if Oasis are so popular in America, why is it that none of the albums they've released in the past decade have gone gold within three years, six years, or even nine years in the case of Standing on the Shoulder of Giants?

Yes Oasis isn't as popular as they once were, but I hate to break it to you Brand New has never had mainstream succuess and outside of this website and music scene most people have probably never heard anything Brand New has ever done. Im a fan of both bands but I guarantee you ifg you go out on the street and randomly grab the first 100 people you see and ask them who the bigger band is Oasis or Brand New, Oasis will win in a LANDSLIDE!

Still, popularity and success don't really have to go hand in hand. Oasis was most popular in the 90's, and while the songs from the 90's still remain popular today, it doesn't mean the band itself remains popular and successful. (What's the Story?) Morning Glory sold 308k albums the first week I believe, but Dig Out Your Soul sold 1/6th of that. Their popularity has gone down, most people think they broke up. Sony doesn't do anything to promote them in America because Oasis fucked themselves over by being idiots. (Liam drooling while accepting an award at an award ceremony) So they are less popular and less successful.

So what I'm trying to say is, just because a band has a few popular songs doesn't mean they will sell a lot of albums.
so do you think brand new has more money? i know that questions seems pretty basic, but i'm just wondering your opinion.

Oasis has a lot more money, but that does not mean it came from the US. They sold 500,000 tickets in one day for their arena tour across Europe, I think they Gallagher brothers are worth 47 million euro combined. In America they aren't nearly as popular as they used to be, but everywhere else, they are still pretty damn popular.

theres nothing id like to see more than to see brand new on the back page of rolling stone in october, at 2-7 beating all the shitty pop, and rap junk on the charts.

[Sarcasm]

30k-40k, somewhere around 36k

[jwicklun]

people are overestimating the popularity of brand new. idealy it will probably be 20-30k no more.
