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.

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.
