Spiritbox earns its second No. 1 on the Top Hard Rock Albums chart, debuting atop the survey with Tsunami Sea.
The set bows with 22,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending March 13, according to Luminate. Of that sum, 16,000 units come from album sales, with 10,000 coming from a vinyl release, placing the album at No. 3 on the Vinyl Albums chart.
It’s the Courtney LaPlante-led band’s second ruler on Top Hard Rock Albums, following Eternal Blue, which reigned in 2021. Between the two LPs, Spiritbox also made the ranking with the EP The Fear of Fear, which peaked at No. 5 in 2023.
Concurrently, nine of Tsunami Sea’s 11 songs reach the Hot Hard Rock Songs tally, paced by lead single “Perfect Soul,” which re-enters the list at No. 9 thanks to 921,000 official U.S. streams and 857,000 radio audience impressions – a new peak, after previously reaching No. 19 in February. The album’s top debut, meanwhile, belongs to “Keep Sweet” at No. 11 (1 million streams).
It’s the most concurrent appearances on the chart, which began in 2020, by a woman or a solely woman-led act (Linkin Park, which boasted 10 appearances on four different charts in late 2024, is co-led by vocalists Mike Shinoda and Emily Armstrong). The previous best had been the Amy Lee-fronted Evanescence with four in April 2021.
“Perfect Soul” is Tsunami Sea’s lead radio single; its best on Mainstream Rock Airplay so far is No. 17 (March 15).
