AceShowbiz - TOMORROW X TOGETHER have achieved their ninth No. 1 album on the Top Album Sales chart for the week ending April 23, according to data dated May 2 from Luminate. Their latest release, 7TH YEAR: A Moment of Stillness in the Thorns, sold 67,000 copies in the United States during its debut week, securing the top position.

This week’s Top Album Sales chart is notably active, with six albums entering the top 10 for the first time, including the new leader from TOMORROW X TOGETHER. Alongside their success, the chart features significant gains for several other artists, including Ye and the soundtrack for KPop Demon Hunters.

ZAYN launched his new studio album, KONNAKOL, at No. 2 with 24,000 copies sold during its opening frame. This marks the third time the singer-songwriter has reached the top 10 on this chart, all of which landed within the top three. Meanwhile, BTS’s former leader’s album ARIRANG slipped from No. 2 to No. 3 with nearly 24,000 units sold, a 25% decrease from the previous week.

The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack experienced a remarkable jump, climbing from No. 19 to No. 4 with 19,000 copies sold, representing a 444% increase. This surge follows the release of two exclusive vinyl editions available only through independent record stores for Record Store Day on April 18. Similarly, Ye’s album BULLY saw a notable rise from No. 31 to No. 5, with 13,000 copies sold—an increase of 412%—after physical album shipments from his webstore reached customers.

Pink Floyd’s live album Live From the Los Angeles Sports Arena, April 26th, 1975, released as a Record Store Day exclusive, debuted at No. 6 with 13,000 copies sold. PLAVE entered the top 10 for the first time with Caligo Pt.2, debuting at No. 7 with 12,000 copies sold. Jeff Buckley’s 2001 album Live a L'Olympia also made its debut at No. 8 with 10,000 copies sold. This release, marking the first vinyl and CD reissue for Record Store Day, is the late artist’s first album to chart in the top 10 on Top Album Sales since his passing in 1997.

Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving dropped to No. 9 despite an 18% increase in sales, moving 8,000 copies. Bruno Mars’s Record Store Day exclusive compilation Collaborations debuted at No. 10 with just over 8,000 copies sold. Mars is also set to serve as the Record Store Day 2026 Ambassador. His compilation includes notable collaborations such as the Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits “Nothin’ On You” (B.o.B featuring Mars), “Uptown Funk” (Mark Ronson featuring Mars), and “Die With a Smile” (Lady Gaga and Mars).

The Billboard Top Album Sales chart ranks the week’s top-selling albums based solely on traditional album sales, excluding streaming and track equivalent units. This chart has been published since May 25, 1991, when Billboard first began using electronically monitored sales data from SoundScan, now known as Luminate. Prior to December 6, 2014, pure album sales were the only factor counted for the Billboard 200 albums chart, which has since adopted a blended methodology that includes streaming and track equivalent album units.

This week's chart highlights the continued dominance of TOMORROW X TOGETHER in traditional album sales, alongside a strong showing from artists leveraging exclusive vinyl releases and Record Store Day promotions to boost physical album sales.
