VELVET REVOLVER: 'Contraband' Enters Australian Chart At No. 2

June 15, 2004

VELVET REVOLVER's "Contraband" entered the Australian album chart at No. 2, right behind Australian country songstress Kasey Chambers, who has managed to maintain her No. 1 spot with "Wayward Angel".

As previously reported, it continues to look like VELVET REVOLVER will debut at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 chart with first-week sales approaching 250,000, putting the album on top by a comfortable margin.

VELVET REVOLVER, who said to be fielding seven-figure offers for their publishing, are the subject of an upcoming VH1 special, "(Inside)Out: The Rise of Velvet Revolver". The program, which is set to air on Wednesday night, June 30 at 12:00 a.m. EST / 11:00 p.m. CST, is described as a behind-the-scenes look at how VELVET REVOLVER got constructed, from the songwriting process to the singer search and studio sessions.
