[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 8711014, member: 19675"] Succeeding, though. I don’t know you or where you were when those bands were out, but they were definitely NOT considered mediocre by rock fans of the day. Hard rock and metal releases tend not to do well on the charts. As I pointed out earlier in this thread, Motörhead- one of the most revered bands in heavy music- only had 9 songs chart in the Billboard top 200, of which only 4 cracked the top 100. Two of those made it into the top 50, and none of which cleared the top 20. The highest hit 22. “Aftershock” is their highest charter at 22nd…and “Ace of Spades“ isn’t any one of those other songs. For sake of comparison, Aldo Nova’s “Fantasy” hit 23rd on the Billboard 200. Fastway’s debut album hit 31 on the Billboard albums chart, with one one song from it hitting 14th and another hitting 35th. Their 4th album- the soundtrack for [I]Trick or Treat[/I]- hit 35 on the Billboard 200 album chart. [/QUOTE]
