STYX ‘THE MISSION LANDS AT #6 ON BILLBOARD’S “TOP ROCK ALBUMS” CHART

| 28 June 2017 | Reply

June 27, 2017 — STYX’s highly anticipated and critically acclaimed 16th studio album, THE MISSION, has rocketed to the top of various Billboard’s charts thanks to a solid album that has connected with their longtime fans as well as new fans who are discovering them for the first time.

THE MISSION’s chart positions:

#6 Top Rock Albums

#11 Physical Albums

#11 Vinyl Albums

#13 Current Albums

#14 Billboard Top Albums

#16 Retail

#17 Mass Merch/Non-Traditional

#29 Digital Albums

#45 Billboard 200 (includes catalog and streaming)

THE MISSION–which was recorded over a two-year period at Blackbird Studios, The Shop, and 6 Studio Amontillado in Nashville–displays the best aspects of the ongoing in-harmony musical intersection of the six-man STYX team: the guitarist/vocalist Tommy Shaw, co-founding guitarist/vocalist James “JY” Young, keyboardist/vocalist Lawrence Gowan, original bassist Chuck Panozzo, drummer/percussionist Todd Sucherman, and bassist Ricky Phillips.

The term “masterpiece” has shown up in many rave reviews of THE MISSION right out of the gate.

Meanwhile, STYX, REO SPEEDWAGON and very special guest star DON FELDER—formerly of the Eagles— kicked off the “United We Rock” U.S. summer tour last week to packed houses and rave reviews. Produced by Live Nation, tickets for various cities are on sale now. A video trailer can be seen here.
