Following the much anticipated return of Twenty One Pilots last Wednesday, new tracks “Jumpsuit” and “Nico and the Niners” from the forthcoming album ‘Trench’ got off to good starts.
With just two days of sales counted, “Jumpsuit” took #6 on the United States digital sales chart with a healthy 22,000 downloads. “Nico and the Niners” placed at #10 on the same chart with 19,000. “Jumpsuit” concurrently debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Rock Digital Song Sales chart while entering the Hot 100 at #60.
Even with the late start, the hype over the new singles brought Twenty One Pilots’ recurrent albums and singles back up the charts.
