MORE Indie Invaders / POSTED BY: KINGSOFAR

Taylor Swift sold 592,000 copies of her new record making herself immune from the dwindling record biz. She is more than an artist, she is a role model and a figure head to a certain segment in this generation. Christina Aguilera ‘Keeps Gettin’ Better” came out just in time for the Christmas holiday but sold only 72,869. Old School marketing strategies cannot get the public excited to spend 10 bucks on a diva that graces the pages of tabloid mags and gossip columns. Pink’s ‘Funhouse’ sold 52,000 records this week. Metallica’s ‘Death Magnetic’ sold 31,000 records, can we say they cameback? Regardless, The Day That Never Comes is a classic song. AC/DC ‘Black Ice’ sold 105,146 with a total of 1,320,000.

Guns N’ Roses new release expects to sell 600k in its first week, which would make this one of the biggest releases of the year. Once again, where are the new artists?
