SLIPKNOT’s “Unsainted” Certified Gold by RIAA

Big day for SLIPKNOT, as the RIAA or (Recording Industry Association of Artists) has announced that “Unsainted” has been Certified Gold in the U.S.

For those that do know know, that means that the single, from the Iowa metal band has sold 500,000 units. One unit is the equivalent of one digital sale or 150 audio/video streams via your favorite streaming services.

While the song, off of the record “We Are Not Your Kind”, has been Certified Gold, the record itself sold 118,000 units in its first week out in August 2018. That even landed it No. 1 on Bilboard’s Top 200. Sales for the album were inflated tremendously as the band gave the album away via redemption offer with ticket sales. Although that does not takeaway from what will end up being just as excellent an album as the rest of them.
