ALLEGAEON Crack U.S. and Canadian Charts For the First Time With ‘Elements of the Infinite’

Wednesday, 2nd July 2014 By Dead Rhetoric

Allegaeon’s new album, Elements Of The Infinite, was released June 24th in North America on Metal Blade Records.

For the first time ever Allegaeon cracked the Billboard Charts and Canadian Charts with the new album. Elements of the Infinite came in at #25 on the Billboard Hard Music Chart, #31 on the Canadian Hard Rock Charts and #141 on the Canadian digital music charts. On the day of release in Canada, the album was #1 on iTunes Metal Chart, #6 on the iTunes Rock Chart and #38 on the iTunes Top 200 Current Album Chart. In the US, the album peaked at #3 on the iTunes Metal Chart.

Guitarist Greg Burgess commented on the debuts: “This morning we awoke to find out our charting position for Elements of the Infinite. If someone told me 10 years ago, that I’d be typing this, playing in a death metal band, especially one with a mascot who wears a frickin’ wolfs head for a hat, I would’ve had you locked up. They say with hard works comes rewards, I say with hard work and amazing fans comes rewards. This is a huge win for our Allegaeon and our Legion!”

In support of their new album, Allegaeon will be hitting the road this August with Chimaira, The Plot In You, Upon This Dawning and Silence The Messenger as part of The Artery Metal Tour. The trek begins August 5th in Joliet, IL and runs through August 30th in Oklahoma City, OK.
