As expected, Lana Del Rey's new album 'Ultraviolence' jumps atop the global album chart this week after healthy 356.000 sales in its start week. The biggest sales achieved the album in the USA with 182.300 copies, United Kingdom with 48.000 copies, Canada with 21.000 copies and France with 20.300 copies. But the current single 'West Coast' is far away from the Top 40 this week and peaked at no.21 nine weeks ago. On the other side Lana's first album 'Born To Die' returns at no.29 this week with 22.000 sales. Since the release in February 2012 it sold massive 4,72 million units. Also back on the hitlist after nearly one year absence is Ed Sheeran's debut album 'Plus'. It rises to no.38 with 18.000 sales and that's virtually the foreshock of Ed's new album 'X', which will be make a deep impact on next week's chart, a sure no.1! Back to this week's tally, there's another important new entry, the sixth studio album of Nu Metal legend Linkin Park. 'The Hunting Party' bows shy behind 'Ultraviolence' with 270.000 sales.
The Los Angeles based band reached it career peak in 2000 / 2001 with the milestone 'Hybrid Theory'. This album sold around 19 million copies to date and ranks at no.78
