A Day To Remember bet on physical music — and it worked

A Day To Remember has achieved significant success as a result of their daring surprise release of their most recent album, “Big Ole Album Vol. 1,” on February 18th exclusively in physical forms. The platinum-certified pop-punk/metalcore group sold about 4,000 copies in the US through physical retailers in their first week of sales, placing them at #27 on the Top Album Sales chart despite having little prior advertising. About 10,000 copies were sold during the second week of availability, according to Billboard, when mail orders for the campaign were taken into consideration. With 8,000 vinyl copies sold, that spike put the album at number five on the Top Album Sales chart. The band made around $240,000 with an average retail price of $27.98. The band is probably pleased with the outcome of their wager because vinyl is frequently regarded as one of the greatest profit drivers for recorded music in the modern era. Although several singles have been launched, those who have transitioned to digital music consumption will be able to locate that record on top DSPs starting March 21st.
