This album has spawned three top 10 songs on the Adult Pop chart: "No Surprise", "Life After You", and "September".[6] The band's third studio album, Break the Spell, was released in November 2011. It debuted at number eight on the Billboard 200 and was certified Gold by the RIAA for selling over 500,000 units in the United States. In November 2013, the band released their fourth studio album, Baptized, which debuted at number six on the Billboard 200.
