Congratulations are in order.
Slipknot’s 2019 album ‘We Are Not Your Kind’ has received its first chart certification, having officially gone Silver in the UK.
For an album to be certified Silver in the UK, it needs to sell or have equivalent sales of 60,000 units. A huge amount!
This marks the first chart certification of ‘We Are Not Your Kind’ globally, and it joins the ranks of all five other Slipknot albums which have all been certified as Silver, Gold or Platinum in the UK as well.
When it was released in August last year, ‘We Are Not Your Kind’ debuted at number one on the UK album chart, dethroning Ed Sheeran. So it seems that maybe they are our kind afterall?
