DYING FETUS – Debut At #180 On The Billboard 200 Chart

Wrong One To Fuck With, the new album from Maryland death metal act DYING FETUS, has debuted at No. 180 on the Billboard 200 chart (No. 39 on the Top Current Albums chart) with first-week sales of 4,590 in the United States. The tally represents the band’s highest first-week sales total to date.

Dying Fetus says, “your continued support over the past 26 years means a lot to us.”

Dying Fetus’ previous album, Reign Supreme (2012), sold roughly 3,000 in its first week and debuted at No. 186 on the Billboard 200.

Going back further, 2009’s Descend Into Depravity bowed at No. 168 on the aforementioned chart, selling 2,700 copies in its first week.

In 1995, DYING FETUS self-released, promoted and distributed their first album, ‘Infatuation With Malevolence.’ In support of the album, the band toured the Eastern U.S., including a high-profile performance at the CMJ Music Convention at New York’s Lincoln Center. DYING FETUS also represented death metal as a genre on a panel at the convention.

In 1996, DYING FETUS‘ second album, Purification Through Violence was released simultaneously in America on Pulverized Records and in Europe on Diehard Music Worldwide. The band immediately embarked on their first full North American tour, hitting 25 cities with Canada’s KATAKLYSM and Florida’s MONSTROSITY. The response to the band’s unreal live show was astounding and the DYING FETUS name began to take residence in the minds of metal heads everywhere.
