http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleed_American (look at discography and read the short entry) and
jimmyeatworld@sammerch.com (to contact them yourself)
http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com (a Sept.27.01 story; two are there) all give hints that 'Bleed American' was both a failure and a good beginning for Jimmy Eat Blood to make it big time. This album, as first named, was released in late July and renamed (eponymously) after 9/11 (a very short span of time there), got folks interested almost immediately: but the band had no money after leaving the Capitol label until they signed with Dream Works (because a few tours don't get a band studio time; they were "scraping pennies together" to get some in Pomona, CA, US) This album didn't go platinum -selling at least 1 million- until it was re-released as "Bleed American: The Deluxe Edition" in 2008. I'd say the reason it's difficult to find how many sold orginally is because not many sold.
