Metalica's 2016 album did significantly better in sales than THINFS, and didn't drop off the charts 1 week later. It sold 291,000 copies first week, but still went on to sell 4 million albums - which is definitely nowhere near the case for Bon Jovi - they didn't even get to a quarter of that.


Oh totally can’t argue that but they had the benefit of time and being missed that helped. If Bon Jovi wasn’t releasing new material at 2 years a clip, I think the sales would be similar even if it was the exact same stuff as we are getting now.
