About Bone Palace Ballet

Bone Palace Ballet is the second album by American post-hardcore band Chiodos, released on September 4, 2007. The album takes its name from a literary work of Charles Bukowski. It was their last album with vocalist Craig Owens and drummer Derrick Frost, until they both rejoined the band in 2012. Following the album's release, it entered the U. S. Billboard 200 chart at number 5 and the Top Independent Albums at number 1, selling over 39,000 copies in its first week, making it one of the highest-charting post-hardcore albums to date. By January 2009, the album had sold more than 200,000 copies in the United States alone. On September 4, 2007, Equal Vision Records released an opaque orange vinyl pressing of the album which included the full album on compact disc. It was limited to 2,000 copies. Warner Bros. Records released Bone Palace Ballet: Grand Coda on January 26, 2009, as part of a new distribution deal in the UK. more »
