Creed Remains On Top As Live Makes Big Chart Debut
After besting new arrivals from Garth Brooks as well as Method Man and Redman by selling more
than 315,000 copies of "Human Clay" last week, the band will retain the number one spot after
selling an additional 190,000 units according to sales figures released by SoundScan on
Wednesday.

Proving that last week's debut was no fluke, Florida rockers Creed will once again top next week's
"Billboard" album chart.
The return of Nine Inch Nails comes in the sonic structures, epic style and surreal art of "The Fragile." This 23 song masterpiece takes a journey through the dark reaches of Trent Reznor's soul, expressed in a haunted forging of tortured guitars, dramatic strings, painful vocals and distorted experimental soundscapes. The sounds on "The Fragile" are
familiar, however manipulated, uncertain and volatile. Nothing is what it seems and Reznor's Odyssey comes with many surprising turns and reflections as he explores the roads less traveled on a grand cyber-art scale. "Somewhat Damaged" and "The Day The World Went Away" represent Reznor's misery and emptiness, finding a soul-mate in tortured static and possessed guitars. "Starfuckers, Inc." and "We're In This Together" walk the edges of post-industrial pop with snarling cynicism and bitter optimism.
The German band H-BLOCKX comes to America with their overpoweringand eclectic album "Fly
Eyes." The band pummeled the Warped Tour thisSummer and has recently torn apart college
metal radio. Now they set theirsights on the rest of the rock world with their first U.S. single in
"Fly." JNBCrecently sat down with Dave and Henning, the vocal powers behindH-BLOCKX, to get
their story and move beyond preconceptions ofGerman bands. You can catch them on tour soon
with Biohazard, anopening act you surely won't want to miss.
