ENHYPEN Earns Its Third No. 1 on Top Album Sales Chart With ‘DESIRE : UNLEASH’

ENHYPEN earns its third No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart (dated June 21) as the group’s new project, DESIRE : UNLEASH debuts atop the tally. The set sold 95,000 copies in the United States in the week ending June 12, according to Luminate. In total, it’s the eighth top 10-charting effort for the ensemble.

Also in the top 10 of the latest Top Album Sales chart, My Chemical Romance’s 2004 album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge reenters at No. 2 (a new high) after its deluxe reissue, while the latest releases from Lil Wayne, Turnstile, Addison Rae, The Doobie Brothers, Volbeat and Marina debut in the region.

Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on traditional album sales. The chart’s history dates back to May 25, 1991, the first week Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from SoundScan, now Luminate. Pure album sales were the sole measurement utilized by the Billboard 200 albums chart through the list dated Dec. 6, 2014, after which that chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album (TEA) units and streaming equivalent album (SEA) units.

My Chemical Romance’s 2004 album, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, returns to Top Album Sales, reentering at No. 2 (its first week in the top 10) with 37,000 copies sold (up 2,987%). The set was reissued on June 6 with refreshed audio and bonus tracks, across many variants — including nine vinyl iterations. All versions of the album, old and new, are combined for tracking and charting purposes.

Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter VI starts at No. 3 with 34,000 sold — marking the 13th top 10 album for the superstar. Rock band Turnstile nabs its best sales week ever, and highest charting album, as NEVER ENOUGH enters at No. 4 with 27,500 sold. Addison Rae’s debut full-length studio album Addison arrives at No. 5 with 23,000.

SEVENTEEN’s SEVENTEEN 5th Album ‘HAPPY BURSTDAY’ falls 1-6 in its second week (14,500; down 69%).

The Doobie Brothers notch its highest charting effort ever (and first top 10) on the 34-year-old Top Album Sales chart, as the veteran band’s new studio set, Walk This Road, drives in at No. 7 with 12,000 sold.

Volbeat grabs its fourth top 10-charting title on Top Album Sales as God of Angels Trust starts at No. 8 with 11,000 sold. Morgan Wallen’s chart-topping I’m the Problem falls 3-9 with 10,500 (down 34%) and Marina locks in her fourth top 10 with the No. 10 debut of Princess of Power (nearly 10,000).
