Green Day Rocks Back To No. 1

It’s been almost a year and a half since Green Day released its most recent album Saviors, but fans are clearly still excited about the project. The pop-punk legends recently dropped the highly-anticipated deluxe edition of the set, which they’d been promoting for months with new tunes.

Sales of the title grew dramatically, and this week the Grammy winner’s latest full-length returns to multiple rankings and even brings the band back to the top spot on one tally in the United Kingdom.

Green Day’s Album Reappears at No. 1

Saviors reappears at No. 1 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart this week. The full-length hadn’t been seen on this list since January, when it spent two frames in the lower reaches of the top 40 before disappearing.

Last week’s champion, Will You Haunt Me, with That Same Patience by Bury Tomorrow, descends dramatically, dipping from No. 1 to No. 26 in just its second frame on the tally.

Green Day’s Second Week at No. 1

Now that it’s back at No. 1, Saviors earns just its second stay in the penthouse on the list of the top-selling rock and metal releases in the U.K. Green Day debuted the project atop the tally in early February 2024. The set attempted to earn more time on the throne, living in the runner-up space for the next month, but it was unable to lead again until the release of its deluxe edition.

Saviors Breaks Back Onto Multiple Charts

Saviors only manages to reenter the top 10 on one of the five U.K.-based rankings where it finds a home at the moment. It returns this frame to each of them, after not appearing on any of the rosters just days ago. The set breaks back into the top 20 on the Official Physical Albums, Official Albums Sales, and Official Vinyl Albums charts, appearing at Nos. 13, 14, and 19, respectively. The title doesn’t perform nearly as well when it comes to purchases on platforms like iTunes, as Saviors finds its way back to the Official Album Downloads roster, but only at No. 45.

Saviors Has Already Dominated

In the past, Saviors has reached No. 1 on each and every one of the charts on which it appears in the United Kingdom. It has understandably spent the most time on the Official Rock & Metal Albums list, racking up 39 frames. It has yet to manage 20 appearances on any of the other rosters.
