Spiritbox Lands at No. 1 on Top Rock Albums, Hard Rock Albums With Debut Project

Spiritbox sends its first full-length album to No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Rock Albums and Hard Rock Albums chart with Eternal Blue, which bows atop both tallies dated Oct. 2.

In the Sept. 17-23 tracking period, Eternal Blue earned 23,000 equivalent album units in the U.S., according to MRC Data, with 19,000 units comprising album sales.

The set also starts at No. 13 on the all-format Billboard 200, No. 3 on Top Album Sales and No. 1 on the Vinyl Albums chart.

Though none of Eternal Blue’s songs concurrently reach a Billboard chart dated Oct. 2, multiple songs from the LP have reached various tallies. “Circle With Me” leads the group with a No. 5 debut and peak in May, while “Holy Roller” (No. 12, Jan. 2), “Constance” (No. 19, Aug. 7) and “Hurt You” (No. 20, Sept. 4) also appeared.

The band also boasted its first Billboard radio hit, “Secret Garden,” in the summer, peaking at No. 34 on Mainstream Rock Airplay (Aug. 14).

Spiritbox was formed in 2016 following singer Courtney LaPlante and guitarist Mike Stringer departing previous band Iwrestledabearonce. While fronting the band, LaPlante earned a pair of top 10s on Hard Rock Albums, led by 2015’s Hail Mary at No. 5.
