I pulled out the Seven's box last night and chucked on Sirens and Future Days

378,000 copies now.

Interestingly, Billboard's recent summation of the band included some oddly mysterious spikes in figures. There's always a lot of mess involved in trying to evaluate the sales of albums from the 1990's, but BB is right more than they're wrong. In this case, it sounds like Vitalogy and Yield could get re-certified in the near future if Epic is so inclined (6x and 2x platinum, respectively).

Is this back on the Billboard 200 chart?
