Bring Me The Horizon‘s total of gold records in the United States has just ballooned to four. The British alternative metal innovators landed their first gold album in the United States back in 2018 with the certification of their 2015 album, “That’s The Spirit“. Now a trio of singles from their 2020 opus “Post Human: Survival Horror” have just followed suit.
Newly certified from that record are the album’s second and fourth singles respectively, “Parasite Eve” and “Teardrops“. Also earning hardware from that record is “Kingslayer“, the band’s featured collaboration with Japanese Kawaii metal stars BABYMETAL. That certification also marks BABYMETAL‘s first gold certification in the United States. The aforementioned trio of certifications were handed down by the RIAA yesterday, June 25th.
A platinum album/single in the United States represents 1,000,000 units, while gold signifies 500,000 units. Outside of traditional physical/digital sales, the certifications factor in digital streams/downloads with 10 permanent track downloads counting as 1 unit and 1500 on-demand audio/video streams from a particular album also counting as as a unit.
