Confessions is the sixth studio album by the American hard rock band Buckcherry. The album was released on February 19, 2013.[2]
Artwork
Before posting the official cover art on January 25, 2013, Buckcherry also posted artwork for an outer cover, they described as a "...book "cover" - and then when it's opened you'll get the true cover of the album itself."[3] The day after, the band posted a picture of the official artwork, stating "We wanted our album cover artwork to be symbolic and encompass the subject matter of the record in an image that's cool enough to be tattooed. Hope you like it."[4]
Commercial performance
The album debuted at No. 20 on Billboard 200, as well as No. 1 on the Hard Rock Albums chart, with 18,000 copies sold in its first week.[5] The album has sold 55,000 copies in the U.S. as of August 2015.[6]
