Brand New Eyes, the third studio album from the band, fronted by lead vocalist Hayley Williams, takes an early lead in the race with a one-day sales total that projects to 180-190k for the week. That gives them the edge over Island/IDJ diva Mariah Carey’s Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, which is now on target for 160-170k.

WTF Well I'm putting my faith in the people that will buy the album in the weekend in the stores!. I guess the poor promotion have something in this case.

This album is too boring. E=MC2 is better.

What promotion?! I have not even seen a single one (Oprah don't count cause i don't watch that thing) . Bitch is getting lazy!

Back in the day she's all over the place week before album release. The last time she's done that was for Emancipation.

I'm hoping tho weekend numbers are solid and put her to no.1 where she deserves. Its a great album! And also Angels Cry is so hot! should've been the next song after Obsessed.

This album is clearly for the LAMBS...if you dont appreciate it or at least grew on you, then youre not ....

I'm really ****ing pissed. Those are Janet Jackson flop numbers. I HOPE she sells more than this. At least she's @ #2.

It's LOWER than Janet Jackson numbers and I am SHOCKED. Damn.

She's selling less than 200k

[Patient No.1]

No promo? :S Wasn't she on America's Got Talent twice? and Ch... Oprah does count, stop fooling yourself.

[Love]

Mariah only had high first week sales with TEOM and E=MC2. She was coming off a multipatinum album with E=MC2, now she's coming off an underperforming album. She didn't do much promotion for this album, either. First week sales don't mean much in the long run. It's about longevity.

I think she still has a chance of selling 200K this week and outselling E=MC2 when this era is over.

She was on Oprah for like 10 minutes and she didn't really talk about the album.

[Elusive Chanteuse]

LMAO lambs on her official board are saying she may have another breakdown after seeing these numbers.

[1-N-Only21]

It's become apparent these days that if you release weak singles... you'll get weak sales.

Was her performances of "Obsessed" even good? and the nerve of people comparing her to Whitney.

[Ustareth]

Why weren't "Betcha Gon' Know" or "H.A.T.E.U." released as singles instead? "Obsessed" is definitely the weaker song on the album, in my opinion, and I think the whole album is great.

Oh plz. Like Whitney's performances were any better? The Oprah interview and the fact that she hasn't released new music in 7 years are the only reasons Whitney had those opening numbers.

EXACTLY!!!! That's why I said the NERVE of people comparing the two.

[Superbitch]

Im still worried about the album now that they released IWKWLI that song is wayy weaker than obssesed. Ive always knew O was gonna smash on urban and rhytmic, but im not sure about the 2nd single. They should've released HATEU instead, that song is epic
