The Lumineers’ III, the aptly named third studio effort from the folk rockers, grabbed the number-two spot with a total of 86,000 equivalent album units, 73,000 of which were traditional album sales.
III follows 2016’s Cleopatra, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. The Lumineers’ 2013 self-titled debut album peaked at number two.
Meanwhile, Korn bows at number eight on the Billboard 200 with The Nothing. The nu metallers’ 13th studio album moved a total 33,000 units, 29,000 of which were traditional album sales.
With The Nothing, Korn now has a total of 14 top-10 albums on the Billboard 200, including the band’s 2004 Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 compilation and 2007’s MTV Unplugged live album. That ties Van Halen for the fifth most top-10 albums by a rock band.
The Rolling Stones have the most with 37, followed by The Beatles with 32, and Dave Matthews Band and Santana with 16 each.
