Bob Dylan's new album, 'Together Through Life', has entered both the U.S. and UK album charts at #1, marking the artist's second consecutive U.S. #1 debut and his first chart-topping release in the UK since 'New Morning' in 1970.

'Together Through Life' is a true international hit, as well, achieving #1 debuts in Austria and Denmark, Top 5 entries in Australia, Germany, Ireland, Holland, Norway, Switzerland, Sweden and New Zealand, and Top 10 rankings in Italy, France and Belgium.

"Beyond Here Lies Nothin'," the first track on 'Together Through Life', is serving as the soundtrack for a series of on-air and online promotional spots for the highly anticipated second season of 'True Blood', the smash hit HBO vampire series. The eagerly awaited second season of 'True Blood' launches on HBO on Sunday, June 14.

Released on Tuesday, April 28, Bob Dylan's 'Together Through Life' is the artist's first full-length studio album since 2006's platinum-certified Modern Times, which also debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200.
