HILLTOP HOODS – THE HARD ROAD: RESTRUNG GOES GOLD
Obese Records and Hilltop Hoods are proud to announce that Hilltop Hoods’ 5th album, ‘The Hard Road: Restrung’, has been certified Gold.
In early 2007, Hilltop Hoods returned to the studio to re-compose their #1 platinum selling album ‘The Hard Road’ with the assistance of the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra and Jamie Messenger.
‘The Hard Road: Restrung’ was launched in May 2007 to a 7,000 strong sellout crowd in a unique live performance with the 31 piece Adelaide Symphony Orchestra at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre.
Hilltop Hoods are the first and only Australian Hip-Hop group to achieve Platinum sales with their previous albums ‘The Calling’ and ‘The Hard Road’. ’Restrung’ also marks the first time a Hip-Hop remix album, either Australian or international, has achieved gold sales status in Australia. These achievements cement Hilltop Hoods at the forefront of not only the Australian Hip Hop industry, but the Australian music industry as a whole.
Our most sincere congratulations go out to Hilltop Hoods and we thank all our colleagues, retailers and associates for their continued support.
