Senjutsu is projected to sell 53k in the US, 21k less than Book of Souls. They might get the 5th place, a step down from both FF and BOS...

I kind of missed your optimism. Still, Drake is not THAT big. He's doing great in some places, but in many others he can't beat Maiden. And since the label shipped 15% more copies than BOS they clearly think they can sell more. Drake has an assured #1 in the US (probably he will go over...

EMP UK is now selling Senjutsu at £6,66. That's dirty

I'm in a lot of international groups and I see positive comments for the most part. Of course there are haters and trolls as usual, but it seems like this time they're a small minority.

Honestly I never saw a reaction this good for a Maiden album, not in the last 20 years at least (looking at the comments)

Yeah I put the first who came in mind and where I'm pretty sure they could do it, of course there will be many others

Piracy has nothing to do with Maiden. Book of Souls was leaked as well and it managed to outsell Final Frontier.

I found it weird too for that reason. Maybe they were taking in account only physical copies? But if so it wouldn't make sense to have Drake, who is digital only. Pretty sure the boxes are counted too.

If the 35k figure is correct would be a bit of a letdown compared to BOS numbers in the UK (there is still time though, even if I doubt they can double it), but Drake would be behind with ca 9k copies left, which is an increase from the 8k difference there was yesterday.

I made a thread about the charts position, if you're interested: https://forum.maidenfans.com/threads/senjutsu-charts-position.71886/

It might be interesting to see how the new album will do in the charts. Accordingly to BMG, they shipped more copies than for BOS in the US. We know that in the UK they're battling with Drake for the first spot. A guy from the FC wrote they sold 35k copies so far which, even if they're ahead...

It's funny that some of my friends have the album already.

We're 6 days away. I'm starting to doubt we'll face the leaks problem lol

It's funny that we're still questioning if listening to Senjutsu leaks is right or wrong while there aren't any Senjutsu leaks

I have an idea which might blow up your minds. If you want to listen to the leaks, go listen them. If you don't, don't do it. No judging, no arguing.

At least those "songs" have the right lenght. They're already more trust worthy than the "leaks" on Youtube.

The band is okay with listening to the songs earlier (of course we're not talking about months but it's a matter of few days), as long as, if you like it, you buy the album. Who search for leaks it's the same people who actually ordered the album already anyway.

HMV Belfast

So right now it's just a matter of time before something happens. That being said, seeing the vinyl makes me wanna buy one.

Some stores are getting it on september 1/2, so I guess it depends on where the stores are. Amazon says my copy will be delivered on september 7 but I'm sure I will get it on release day. Probably they just want to play it safe.
