Disturbed’s “The Sound of Silence” is steady at No. 1 on one Billboard chart this week. The band’s cover of the Simon & Garfunkel classic is usually in charge of one tally or another, and if it’s not, it isn’t very far from the summit.
As that smash rules again, Disturbed scores a new hit on multiple ranking in the U.S. The band’s latest arrival even joins “The Sound of Silence” inside the top 10 on one chart, which the rockers are quickly learning to dominate.
“Glass Shatters (New Mix)” debuts inside the highest tier on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart this week. The track launches at No. 7, earning Disturbed another hit and landing just a few spaces below the group’s current champion.
Disturbed has now accrued 17 top 10 smashes on Billboard’s list of the bestselling hard rock-only cuts throughout the nation. 22 songs from the rock outfit have landed somewhere on the tally, which used to feature more than the 10 spaces that make up the list these days.
“Glass Shatters (New Mix)” comes from the recently re-released anniversary edition of The Sickness. That first Disturbed album arrived in the spring of 2000, and it quickly established Disturbed as one of the most exciting new names in the hard rock/nu metal scene, which was hugely popular at the time.
The promotional single also reaches another Billboard list this week, though it doesn’t crack the top 10. “Glass Shatters (New Mix)” enters the all-consumption Hot Hard Rock Songs chart at No. 24, becoming the band’s seventh hit on the ranking.
“Glass Shatters (New Mix)” is the top arrival on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart this week. It beats Papa Roach’s “Even If It Kills Me,” the only other new title on the tally, by three spaces.
Disturbed is one of several artists that start new tracks on the Hot Hard Rock Songs roster, though “Glass Shatters (New Mix)” isn’t the loftiest of that bunch. Architects (“Blackhole,” No. 7), Papa Roach (“Even If It Kills Me,” No. 16), and Seether (“Walls Come Down,” No. 20) all land ahead of the newly released The Sickness tune.
