Damnation has actually shipped more copies than Deliverance...

[Light]

4000 copies isn't very many, though...

4000 copies isn't very many, though...

That's the second time you say that, and you STILL haven't realized that those are NOT total sales.

Godfuckingdamnit...I guess sometimes, not even big annoying letters are enough to save you from public ridicule.

Once again:

Damnation has shipped about 4,300 copies MORE than Deliverance.
Blackwater Park has shipped about 4,000 copies MORE than damnation.

Do the fucking math, that means BWP has shipped about 8,300 copies more than Deliverance, yet these are NOT FUCKING TOTAL SALES FIGURES. No one has mentioned the total sales for each record, at least not in this thread.

Damnit... :Smug:

 

[Light]

Yeah, but... 4000 copies, like... that's fuck all...

 

[Mayberry's Finest]

It would be nice to see total albums sales for each individual album. I've been looking on the net and I can't seem to find a decent site that will give me such information.

 

[Jim LotFP]

Yeah, but... 4000 copies, like... that's fuck all...

You do realize that a lot of underground bands consider 4000 worldwide sales to be pretty good?

 

[Stormwatch]

Yes but Opeth shouldn't be anywhere near underground. They're the most talented band on the fuckin planet right now!

 

[Funeral Portrait]

whoever the idiot was that said they only sold 4,000 copies doesn't have his facts straight.

 

[Spike]

BWP 2CD has shipped about 4,300 total!

Firstly: BWP 2CD is a seperate entity from the BWP CD

and

Secondly: BWP 2CD if fucking LIMITED EDITION (I'm having as much luck finding that as I am finding the BWP vynil... which is to say FUCK ALL.

Now STFU!

 

[Light]

4000 copies. 4000 copies. 4000. Four thousand. Witches' Eyes.

 

[Spike]

SOMEONE TURN OFF THE FUCKING LIGHT!!

 

[groteZk]

Light: Yeah, but... 4000 copies, like... that's fuck all...


Hahahahaha!!! Great!!!! Go on Light....

 

[Spike]

FUCKING AAAAARGHHH!!!

*Head Explodes*

Well. Orchid and Morningrise from what I heard once probably sold close to around 20-30,000 copies. Probably increased in sales also due to the albums that came after....

BWP I hear sold over 90,000 copies which is probably a great deal more by now.


Damnation is sure to be THE seller for Opeth. I know Deliverance surpassed BWP's overal sales and Damnation will likely surpass the 100,000 mark easily if the previous info is for certain.

I gotta find out for sure, but that's probably close to how it is.

 

[Black Dragon]

The 2CD BWP was limited to 5,000 copies I believe, and considering most of the people I know who bought that thing were like me and also have the original BWP, that figure is pretty good.

 

[warman]

you opeth fans are almost as clever as symphony x fans.

 

[DamienTC]

I sincerely doubt that anyone here knows what the fuck they're talking about. I mean, the first post of the thread is illogical to say the least, and some of the subconversations are just plain weird.
Nevertheless, maybe I shouldn't smoke weed...

But, I don't think that any Opeth album has sold 100k on it's own. Maybe all their albums in total reaches that mark, but it sounds awfully high for one record - even though it's the brilliant BWP.

Anyone proving me wrong will receive my deepest... blah blah *I keep yappering away, until some invisible force knocks me down*
