It was the first Christian metal album to achieve platinum status, which means sales of one million copies. 3 Videos were produced for the album and they played heavily on MTV.
The highest ranking single was “Honestly” and it peaked at #23 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles Chart.
A piece of trivia, the album went through 2 bass players before a session musician (Brad Cobb) finished doing the album. He however he did not join the band.
