Billboard 200 Albums (April 10-17, 2013)

Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience holds at No. 1 for a third straight week on the Billboard 200, selling another 139,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan (down 56%).
It's the first set to spend it first three weeks at No. 1 since Taylor Swift's Red (Nov. 10-Nov. 24, 2012) and the first by a male artist in nearly three years. Eminem's Recovery was the last by a male to rule in its first three weeks: July 10-July 24, 2010.
Total sales for 20/20 now stand at 1.4 million.
The Band Perry makes a robust start at No. 2 on the chart this week, as its second album, Pioneer, debuts with a stronger-than-expected 129,000. It also launches at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart, the act’s first No. 1 on that tally.
Last week, industry forecasters had pegged Pioneer to bow with more than 110,000. It would seem that excitement generated by the trio's performance on the highly rated Academy of Country Music Awards (April 7) helped drive sales even higher. The group performed its current single "DONE." on the show, which earned 15.4 million viewers, according to Nielsen -- the most-watched ACMs since 1998.
While the ACMs were on Sunday, the final day of the SoundScan tracking week, some impact from the awards are still felt in this week's charts. We'll see the full power of the show on next week's tallies, after a week of sales has been registered post-show.
The start for Pioneer is the best sales week yet for the Band Perry, whose self-titled debut bowed and peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 in 2010 with 53,000. The smash set has sold 1.5 million in the United States, and was the No. 6 best-selling country album of 2011.
The Band Perry also ignites on the Digital Songs chart, which registers a number of other ACM-related jumps. "DONE." re-enters at No. 28 with 67,000 downloads sold (up 178%) while Florida Georgia Line's "Cruise" rallies 42-3 (248,000; up 372%). Florida Georgia Line benefits from two ACM wins and a performance of "Cruise" on the show. In addition, a new remix of the tune (with Nelly) was commercially released last week. It accounts for 75% of overall sales for “Cruise” for the week.
Back on the Billboard 200, Tyler, the Creator's Wolf arrives at No. 3 with 89,000, marking the Odd Future member's best sales week yet. His last set, Goblin, debuted and peaked at No. 5 in 2011 with a 45,000 start.
Blake Shelton, who co-hosted the ACM Awards with Luke Bryan, slips 3-4 with Based on a True Story . . . (82,000; down 59%) while Lil Wayne's I Am Not a Human Being II falls 2-5 (68,000; down 69%).
New Kids on the Block score their sixth top 10 album as 10 starts at No. 6 with 51,000. It gives the quintet three top 10s in a row, following 2008's The Block (No. 2) and the collaborative NKOTBSB (No. 7 in 2011, with Backstreet Boys).
Rock band Killswitch Engage fires up at No. 7, debuting with Disarm the Descent (48,000). It matches the band's previous chart high, logged when its last effort, a 2009 self-titled set, also launched at No. 7 (58,000). On Top Rock Albums, the new album bows at No. 1, its first leader on the tally.
Rounding out the top 10 are Imagine Dragons' Night Visions (holding at No. 8 with 37,000; down 20%), P!nk's The Truth About Love (7-9 with 37,000; down 24%) and Bruno Mars' Unorthodox Jukebox (9-10 with 36,000; down 24%).

Brad and Eric have more than one shot to debut higher than him, considering the ACMAs promo too 
I don't think Paramore will debut that high this time around.

I doubt Eric will sell more this week since it's just a live album. Paramore and Brad discounted on Amazon and they are ahead of him on their album chart and iTunes (he's only trailing Paramore on Amazon MP3 though.) It's been only two days and Paramore released their first album in five years. Brad is also getting more buzz than usual because of that “Accidental Racist” single.

Oh, I didn't notice it was a live album.
Well, Brad has it on lock then.
