Boingo (Oingo no longer) bounce back into the fray after an extended hiatus with their self-titled Giant debut album. It has been a long wait for fans of Elfman and company, and the word of mouth buzz on the street accounts for 50% of sales so far. Radio exposure accounts for a good number of sales as well, with "Hey!," the first single, climbing 32-25* at VIRTUALLYALTERNATIVE Radio (with 436 PPWs).

Boingo climbs 61-58* on the Hottest Sales Nationwide, with nine debuts and 17 Top 10 mentions, including Virgin Megastore/Costa Mesa #4, Tower/Brea #2 and Middle Earth/Downey #1.
