"Immortalized," the sixth studio record from Disturbed, sold
93,000 albums and 29,000 songs, and was streamed 3 million
times, totaling 98,000 units.
Last week's chart-topper, Luke Bryan's "Kill The Lights,"
dropped to No. 2 this week with 67,000 units, while rapper Dr
Dre's "Compton" stayed steady at No. 3 with another 61,000 units
sold in the week ended Aug. 27.
The Billboard 200 chart tallies album sales, song sales (10
songs equal one album) and streaming activity (1,500 streams
equal one album).
New entries on the top 10 of the Billboard 200 album chart this
week include country musician Kip Moore's "Wild Ones" at No. 4,
"Great Unknown" from Matchbox 20 front man Rob Thomas at No. 6
and Swedish heavy metal band Ghost's "Meliora" at No. 8.
On the Digital Songs chart, which measures online single
download sales, R. City's "Locked Away" featuring Maroon 5
frontman Adam Levine jumped two spaces to No. 1 with 91,000
downloads.
Next week's chart is likely to reflect bumps in sales of songs
and albums tied to artists who won and performed at Sunday's MTV
Video Music Awards.
