Old-school sales helped Tool<\/a>\u2019s Fear Inoculum<\/em> earn nearly 250,000 album-equivalent units during its debut week \u2014 and Number One on the latest RS <\/em>200. Fear Inoculum,<\/em> the band\u2019s first album in 13 years, amassed just 26.5 million streams across its 10 tracks, some of which stretch past the ten-minute mark. But CDs and downloads accounted for around 90% of the band\u2019s album units. (Tool\u2019s lead singer, Maynard James Keenan, was accused of sexual assault<\/a> on Twitter last year. No charges have been filed to date.)<\/p>\n

After debuting at Number One last week with over 900,000 album-equivalent units, Taylor Swift<\/a>\u2019s Lover<\/em> floated back down to earth, earning more than 70,000 in sales and more than 110 million streams in its second week. Lana Del Rey<\/a>\u2019s Norman Fucking Rockwell<\/em> arrived at Number Three with over 100,000 album-equivalent units, making this the rare week that three different albums all cleared the 100,000 threshold.<\/p>\n

The Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a> 200 Albums chart tracks the most popular releases of the week in the United States. Entries are ranked by album units, a number that combines digital and physical album sales, digital song sales, and audio streams using a custom weighting system. The chart does not include passive listening such as terrestrial radio or digital radio. The Rolling Stone<\/em> 200 Albums chart is updated daily, and each week Rolling Stone<\/em> finalizes and publishes an official version of the chart, covering the seven-day period ending with the previous Thursday.<\/p>\n

Aside from the fireworks at the top of the chart, there few other major debuts on the latest RS <\/em>200. Lil Tecca\u2019s debut, We Love You Tecca<\/em>, arrived at Number Four with close to 70,000 album-equivalent units. Sheryl Crow\u2019s Threads<\/em>, which was packed with famous guests, debuted at Number 28, with almost all of its units coming from sales. And SiR, the latest R&B singer to emerge from Top Dawg Entertainment, the home of Kendrick Lamar and SZA, debuted at Number 61.<\/p>\n
