4 QUEENSRYCHE – DEDICATED TO CHAOS
Last week: 8,209 (debut)
29 SYMPHONY X – ICONOCLAST
Last week: 2,581
Cume: 9,984
Not to be a face-rubber, but I kind of wish Tenth Dreamer Deceiver was here still so he could see that Symphony X outsold Queensryche's debut first week number in two weeks, and that Queensryche only sold 1,000 records more first week than Symphony X. I am not sure how Roadrunner feels about this number, but I doubt they are all that excited for a band with platinum and gold awards in their past to be almost beat out by some Medieval Times patrons from New Jersey. Seems like QR's fans are in decline and SX's fans are at an incline. Interesting to see what happens to SX in the coming months.
Oh and Limp Bizkit debuted at 27,000 units this week if anyone cares.
And also of note:
14 IN FLAMES – SOUNDS OF A PLAYGROUND FADING
Last week: 4,453
Cume: 18,557
This is In Flames' second week on the charts and I think personally that this number is awful. The last two albums did way more, but hopefully it will pick up slack when they hit Mayhem Fest in a few weeks/days.

You know what I mean...not comfort flip-flop, fashion Ed Hardy flip-flops with plaid shorts, a popped collar and enough hair gel to clog a turbine engine complete with upside-down visor...douchebag frat-tard.
