30 Seconds to Mars brings home Platinum
Jan 03, 2007
BAND’S SECOND VIRGIN RECORDS ALBUM,
‘A BEAUTIFUL LIE,’ IS A MILLION-SELLER
YEAR-LONG RADIO PLAY, SELLOUT TOURS AND TWO SMASH VIDEOS POWER A PLATINUM JOURNEY
HEADLINING ROCKSTAR TASTE OF CHAOS 2007
NEW YORK - A BEAUTIFUL LIE, the second album by Virgin Records’ 30 SECONDS TO MARS has been certified platinum for U.S. sales of over a million copies, the label announced today. The album was released on August 30, 2005.
30 SECONDS TO MARS has rarely been off the road, the radio, or the music video screen over the past year. "The Kill" has been on the national Modern Rock airplay chart for over 40 weeks and counting, following its #3 peak - giving 30 SECONDS TO MARS the longest run on the chart of any other band in 2006. Two tracks by the band, "The Kill," and the current single, "From Yesterday" are currently in the top 15 on the Modern Rock chart.
"The Kill" has won the band a series of awards and nominations from MTV, FUSE, mtvU, and Billboard for its magnetic performance footage and evocative images inspired by the Stephen King / Stanley Kubrick classic "The Shining". The thirteen minute long epic short film / video for the current single, "From Yesterday," is even more ambitious enabling 30 SECONDS TO MARS to become the first American rock band ever to shoot a music video entirely in the People’s Republic of China. "From Yesterday" was again directed by the band’s reclusive inspirator Bartholomew Cubbins with hundreds of warriors, acrobats, and even fireworks in a massive display of art, culture and storytelling inspired by the Chinese dynastic period.
30 SECONDS TO MARS just wrapped up headlining the MTV2 $2 Bill "Welcome To The Universe" tour -- also dubbed the "Environmentour" for its conscientious use of earth-friendly alternatives. They will next headline the Rockstar Taste of Chaos tour which kicks off February 15th in Seattle.
