These Rock Bands Have Never Gone Platinum

You’d expect a famous rock band to have a wall filled with platinum albums. But some of the biggest bands ever managed to find worldwide fame without the album sales to match.

The folks at Loudwire just shared a list of world-famous bands that never went platinum – including huge names like Motorhead, Slayer, and The Ramones.

The list also included groundbreaking punk bands like Bad Religion and Dead Kennedys, along with metal legends like Anthrax and Sepultura.
Would you rather be in a band that sold a lot of records, or one that influenced other bands?

X96
X96 is Utah's Original Alternative. It is self-aware. It is ingrained. It plays bands like Panic! at the Disco, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Cure, and Muse. It's part of a healthy diet and it's why native Utahns are so stout and stalwart. Listen and become part of it and it will become part of you.
