Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk...And who among you have not gone out and grabbed a copy of "Trilogy" yet? Released on October 24th, 2000, Souls of Mischief's 3rd record, "Trilogy", has managed to garner 14,592 sales via SoundScan according to information provided by Red Distribution. While for an independent record, the numbers are good, they in no way hold a candle to sales of Del's "Both Sides of the Brain" which managed to rank up similar numbers in its first week of availability. To date, since its release on April 11th, 2000, Del's "Both Sides of the Brain" has accumulated a sell-through number of 60,171 units based on SoundScan totals.

While accurate in their respective markets, not all stores report to SoundScan, especially international imports and many mom & pop shops. Additionally, we are uncertain as to whether online distributors such as CDNow & Amazon, among others, report numbers to SoundScan.

Souls of Mischief plan to release a 2nd video from "Trilogy", the first of which was "Medication" which saw only limited distribution to video outlets. If you haven't gotten it yet, go get "Trilogy"! Many feel mired by opinions posted online, and it seems silly to me. Don't expect "93 Til" cause you will not get it. And to expect anything from anything is energy best served elsewhere. Clear your mind, go get it, and enjoy it.
