Total sales for Killers - Direct Hits can’t possible be correct?

 

Well spotted - s/b 594.5k

 

Any data on Nines - Crop Circle?

 

~54-55k

 

In case anyone is still unsure of the final UK Charts of 2018.

 

The OCC tell me that the current UK Charts - W/E 3rd January 2019 - are the last Charts for 2018.

With a Sales 'Cut-Off' Date of Thursday 27th December 2018.

 

The 1st UK Charts of 2019 are those for W/E 10th January - even though 4 Days of their Sales were in 2018.

I know album sales are poor but just over 60k gets you top 100 these days :o :o

 

Even being number 1 won't guarantee you. In 2017, Lana Del Rey's Lust for Life literally just made the top 100 despite being a chart topper.

Shit, Drake and Post Malone are basically obsolete when it comes to CD/vinyl. Hip hop fans DO NOT CARE about physical albums.

 

Hip-hop appeals to a younger audience in general and younger audiences buy less CDs. (See also how Eminem has a higher physical percentage, because he's been around so long so he has an older fanbase than more recent rappers). Also those two albums will have a very high percentage of sales from streaming which I guess is counted in the 'digital' percentage, the difference might be less stark if it was just looking at downloads vs. physical sales for each album.

Not even about downloads in some cases!

Glad to see I'm within 1k, in most cases. :)

it's a pity they don't detail the streaming % too

Those Now sales are atrocious. Then I again, I’ve been an avid collector and even I’ve stopped at 100.

Justin Timberlake's Man of the Woods missing the entire Top 100...a complete disaster of an era.

Here's a statement I never thought I'd make: Paloma Faith has outsold the Arctic Monkeys.

Here's a statement I never thought I'd make: Paloma Faith has outsold the Arctic Monkeys.

 

Don’t know why, her 2009 album outsold their 2009 album.

 

In fact, generally, she’s always been a more consistent seller, she just hasn’t had their highs.

Not sure AM were particularly aiming for another gigantic selling album, would have been easy for them to follow the same formula as their last album and probably have one of the biggest albums of the year but they chose to go in a more experimental direction instead.

Its bad and boring

and uninspired

Thats not the same as being experimental

And im a fan
