FIVE_FINGER_DEATH_PUNCH-War_Is_The_Answer(2009)WM[1]According to music industry site Hits Daily Double, Five Finger Death Punch’s sophomore album, War Is The Answer, is on track to sell 35-40 thousand copies next week. That should put them at or at least near the top ten. As of this writing, they have the #9 album on iTunes, which recently passed Wal-Mart as the biggest music retailer in the U.S., so that’s a pretty good indicator of how they’ll do. Now all they have to do is make sure that they’ve got a tight rein on their guitar player so he doesn’t pull a publicity stunt go missing again.
