The
Billboard 200 chart measures multi-metric album consumption, which includes
traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent
albums (SEA).
U2 Scores
Eighth No. 1 Album on Billboard 200 Chart With 'Songs of Experience'
The
band is now the only group with No. 1s in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and 2010s.
U2 achieved its eighth No.1
album on the Billboard Top 200 Album
Chart (BB200), as the rock band’s new SONGS
OF EXPERIENCE debuted atop the tally. The set bows with 186,000 equivalent album units earned
in the week ending Dec. 7, according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 179,772 were in traditional album
sales.
Songs
of Experience netted the biggest week for a rock album in 2017, both in
terms of overall units, as well as album sales. The last rock set to log a
larger frame was Metallica’s Hardwired… To Self-Destruct, which launched at No.
1 on the Dec. 10, 2016-dated chart with 291,000 units, of which 282,000 were in
album sales.
Songs
of Experience’s debut benefits from a concert
ticket/album bundle sale redemption promotion in association with the
act’s 2018 Experience + Innocence Tour, which begins in May.
U2
last topped the Billboard 200 with 2009’s No Line on the Horizon, which bowed
with 484,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Nielsen Music. (The
Billboard 200 transitioned to a consumption units-ranked tally in late 2014.)
Chris Stapleton made a bow at
No.2 on the Billboard 200 with his second studio effort of 2017, FROM A ROOM: VOLUME 2. It starts with 125,000 units, of which 115,870 were in pure album
sales. It follows From a Room: Volume 1,
which also opened (and peaked) at No.2 (on the list dated May 27), with 219,000 units, of which 202,154 were in traditional
album sales.
Stapleton
is the first country act to notch two top-two charting albums in a calendar
year on the Billboard 200 since 2013. That year, Luke Bryan claimed a pair of No. 1s with Spring Break… Here to
Party and Crash My Party.
Taylor Swift with REPUTATION slid to No.3
after three weeks at No.1. In its fourth week, the set collected 112,000 units (down 24%), with 70,199 of that figure in album
sales (down 47%; total 1,650,506). The album’s SEA units rally by 344 percent
(to 34,000 units) following the entire set’s release to streaming services on
Dec. 1. Previously, only the album’s four pre-release tracks were available to
stream.
Garth Brooks with five-CD boxed set The Anthology: Part I: The First Five Years
dropped from its No.4 peak to No.10
in its third week.
Top
Country Albums now ranks the most popular country albums of the week, as
compiled by Nielsen Music, based on multi-metric consumption (blending traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA), and streaming equivalent albums (SEA)).
10 digital track sales from an
album = 1 track equivalent album (TEA)
“sale”
1,500 on demand song streams from
an album to one streaming equivalent album (SEA) “sale”.
Nielsen
Music compiles the sales and streaming data. Billboard continues to publish pure album sales charts (subscription to
billboard biz ), exclusively comprising
Nielsen’s sales data.
STAPLETON also
owns three of the top five slots
Chris Stapleton with his third full-length, From A Room: Volume 2 (Mercury/
Universal Music Group Nashville), flew in atop Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart dated Dec. 23, earning 125,000
equivalent album units (#2 BB200; 115,870 in traditional album sales) in the week ending Dec. 14, according
to Nielsen Music.
The
nine-track LP, produced by Stapleton with Dave
Cobb, follows its predecessor, From A Room: Volume 1, which bowed at
No. on the Top Country Albums list dated
May 27 with 219,000 units (202,154 in pure sales), marking Stapleton’s strongest unit and sales week
to date. Volume 1 has spent eight weeks atop Top Country Albums.
Additionally,
Stapleton held three positions in the Top Country Albums top five, a feat now
accomplished only three times in the past 25 years. Joining Volume 2 at No.1, Volume 1 increased 66% to 19,000 units
and hurtled 9-3 (64-28 BB200)
selling 15,550 copies
(up 80%, 31-week total 611,100) while Stapleton’s first studio album, TRAVELLER, jumped 8-4
(18,000 units, up 39%; 11,229 sales up 62%; 136-week total 2,144,500). Traveller has ruled the
chart for 29 weeks.
Chris
said he didn’t feel any pressure to make From A Room: Volume 1 or Volume
2, because he’s just making music he likes. “My goal with making Traveller, I hoped to possibly sell 50,000 records,
and that was my goal. I was like I was gonna make this record and I was going
to go out and play music, because that’s what I knew how to do and that’s what
Universal allowed me to do. Obviously, we did a little better than that, and so
this time around I tried to reset – to a degree – and go, but let’s put this
into perspective here. None of this was expected stuff. What were you trying to
do? What are we trying to do? We’re trying to make music that we like and make
a record that we like,” said Chris. “So,
very much I would love to be able to sell enough records that I can still go
play shows and keep making records. That’s the goal. That’s the dream, whether
it’s 20,000 records or 50,000 records or getting to play a room for 300 people
or 20,000 people. That’s the dream still. I’m still making a living playing
music. So, no, I didn’t feel any pressure from it whatsoever, because all that
came from just making music for the sake of making music.”
Promoting
the album Mercury Nashville's Chris Stapleton appeared on NBC-TV's "SUNDAY Today With WILLIE GEIST"
(Sunday Dec 3) for an interview segment. Stapleton and his wife, Morgane, welcomed GEIST to their home
just outside of NASHVILLE for a conversation about songwriting; his
newly-released album, "From A Room: Volume 2;" and his family.
Volume
2 follows the release of From A Room: Volume 1, which debuted earlier this year
at #1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart, #2 on the Billboard Top 200 chart
and, with its RIAA Gold certification, remains the #1 best-selling country
album of 20.
Superstar country singer Chris Stapleton has a busy week with
appearances celebrating the release of critically acclaimed new album, From A Room: Volume 2.
Chris performed “Millionaire” on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”, which you can watch here. Also Stapleton performed “Millionaire” and an exclusive web version of “Nobody’s Lovely Tonight” on Jimmy Kimmel Live and also joined guest host Chris Pratt for a hilarious special duet of ‘“(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” as well as an interview, where they celebrated with a glass of Tennessee Whiskey and chatted about Chris success including his three nominations for the 60th Annual Grammy Awards USA for his critically acclaimed album, From A Room: Vol. 1. Stapleton also chatted to Joe Rogan for his podcast, discussing his road to success.
His album From A Room: Volume 2 has received widespread acclaim with praise in the USA from high profile publications NPR, Rolling Stone and Relix as well as the UK landing No 2 on the UK’s Official Americana Albums Chart Top 40 on Friday, alongside positive reviews from NME who gave it 4 out 5 review in their Friday album club, comparing Chris’ unique take on modern country to respected artists including: Neil Young, Credence Clearwater Revival and Johnny Cash.

Critical
reception for Chris Stapleton’s From A Room: Volume 2.
Pop Matters (Rating: 8/10) ....It's Stapleton's grasp on the constant
joys of life despite the troubles that makes his music essential and enduring.
Rollingstone (Rating: 3.1/2 STARS) ....Like its predecessor from earlier this year,
volume two of Chris Stapleton's From A Room is a brew of country, folk, blues
and Southern rock and soul, recorded at Nashville's vintage RCA Studio A with
producer Dave Cobb. The band's the same but leaner, stripped to guitars, bass,
drums and Stapleton's mighty voice, with harmonies by his wife, Morgane,
smartly moved up in the mix. Again, the songs feel like unearthed classics.
"Midnight Train to Memphis" is a lockdown rocker recalling
"Folsom Prison Blues," and "A Simple Song" might be vintage
James Taylor if JT had kept to his Southern roots.
Independent (Rating: 3 out of 5 STARS)…
While this partner set doesn’t have quite
the sustained quality of the preceding album released six months ago, it still
affirms the value of spiking country music with a strong shot of rhythm &
blues. It’s a natural call for Stapleton’s sepia rasp of a voice: allied to the
funky country-rock and waspish flanged guitar of “Hard Livin’”, the result
recalls the outlaw strut of Waylon Jennings; while in a more pared-down solo
setting, it underscores the pained regret of the barfly talking to God in
“Drunkard’s Prayer”. He overdoes it slightly with the heartland rock of
“Midnight Train To Memphis”, coming across like a bargain-basement Bob Seger,
but elsewhere Stapleton’s lyrical manner skillfully allows dark clouds to
shadow “A Simple Song” (which rhymes “laid off last fall” with “cholesterol”)
and especially “Scarecrow In The Garden”, the grim testament of a beaten man
portentously gripping “a Bible in my left hand, and a pistol in my right”.
Slant Magazine (Rating: 70/100) ...If anything, the album flows together even
better than Volume 1, where the disparity between light-heartedness and heavier
themes was an occasional distraction.
Sandwiched
among Stapleton’s trifecta on Top
Country Albums is the artist who last achieved the feat, Garth Brooks, whose
new box set, The Anthology: Part 1, The
First Five Years (Pearl), slipped to 1-2
(#4-10 Billboard 200) selling 39,762 copies (down 30%; 3-week
total 149,663). On the chart dated Dec. 17, 2016,
Brooks ranked at Nos. 2, 3 and 4, respectively, with wife Trisha Yearwood on
Christmas Together; the Walmart exclusive bundle Christmas Together/Gunslinger;
and the stand-alone version of his 10th proper album, Gunslinger.
Former
No.1 Blake Shelton with
TEXOMA SHORE (Warner Bros./Warner Music Nashville) fell 3-5 (#24-37 BB200) selling 13,398 copies (down 25%;
5-week total 144,011).
Danielle Bradbery with I DON’T BELIEVE WE’VE MET (BMLG) made a debut on Top Country Albums
at No.6 (#41 BB200; 15,000 units)
selling 11,106 copies. The set marked the
third appearance on the chart for Bradbery, who won the fourth season of NBC’s
The Voice in 2013. Her 2013 self-titled LP provided Bradbery her best rank so
far when it debuted and peaked at No. 5. (#19
BB200) selling 41,369 copies with her first week at retail. Her The Voice Complete
Season 4 Collection also peaked at #19.
Bradbery’s
10-song sophomore album—features seven songs she co-wrote, including lead
single “Sway.” Additional contributing songwriters include Thomas
Rhett, Jaren Johnston, Rhett Akins, Nicolle Galyon, Emily Weisband and Heather
Morgan.
Danielle
Bradbery first reached fans on NBC’s The Voice in 2013, winning at age 16. Now
21, the Texas native celebrated her re-introductory, sophomore BMLG Records
album, I Don’t Believe We’ve Met, on NBC’s
TODAY (9 a.m. hour) on the release day: Friday, Dec 1. After realizing she
wanted to play a bigger part in the creative process, Bradbery has been waiting
for old and new fans everywhere to hear the album, after she took four years to
carefully craft her own style and what she wanted to say. The transformation
Bradbery was looking for was highlighted by NPR’s Jewly Hight as part of the album’s “First Listen” describing
it as “a significant, and successful, reinvention captured in a taut 10
tracks.”
Bradbery
entered the writing room for the first time with songwriting veterans like
Grammy-award winning Emily Weisband,
superstar Thomas Rhett, 28-No.1 writer Rhett
Akins, and more that helped her bring out her true story as she crafted I
DON’T BELIEVE WE’VE MET. NOW, Bradbery makes her songwriting debut penning
seven out of 10 songs on the album Billboard said, “honesty and vulnerability can be heard throughout.”
Bradbery, who NPR says is “exploring the possibilities of timbre, tone and
inflection, and incorporating R&B-steeped pop attitude in a way that feels
natural,” on I Don’t Believe We’ve Met, heads into her TODAY show performance
on the heels of her recent performances at CMT’s
Next Women of Country in November and CMT’s
Artists of the Year Awards in October, where the hurt and losses from the
many tragedies of 2017 were remembered.
A four-show run at Nashville’s One at Cannery
Row, New York’s Hill Country, Houston’s White Oak Music Hall and Los Angeles’
Hornblower Cruises and Events kicked off I Don’t Believe We’ve Met’s release.
Critical reception for Danielle Bradbery’s I Don’t Believe
We’ve Met:
AllMusic (Rating: 3.1/2 Stars) Occasionally,
her words can be a little too on the nose -- "I'm in love with your
potential" seems like a dismissal -- but the lyrical ambition is nearly as
admirable as the shifting, multidimensional pop on I Don't Believe We've Met.
Entertainment Focus (Rating: 4/5 STARS) ...I Don’t Believe We’ve Met is a far
superior album to Bradbery’s debut. Her being more involved in the album
creatively is a definite plus and she’s clearly starting to find her voice as
an artist. Even the songs she hasn’t had a hand in writing, she manages to sing
as if from first-hand experience. She’s come a long way in a relatively short
space of time and I’m really excited to see what she does next. I Don’t Believe
We’ve Met is a real accomplishment that Bradbery should feel very proud of.
Sounds Like Nashville (Rating: Positive) ...It is obvious Danielle Bradbery took her time with I Don’t Believe
We’ve Met with thoughtful lyrics and intentional production. She has grown up
immensely since her last album and seems to have started a new and bright
chapter in her career.
