- 1. Pierce the Veil’s Misadventures debuts at #4 on the billboard charts, selling 54,000 units. This long-awaited release proved that their fans are still very much interested in this band despite them not having new music out in over 3 years. Their 2012 album, Collide with the Sky, debuted at #12 with 27,000 sold. This just shows that dedicated touring and promotion pays off!
