Is this a new trend? For the second week in a row a rock debut has landed the top spot on the Billboard 200 album charts. Staind�s major label sophomore effort, �Break the Cycle� will claim the No. 1 spot on the charts when they are published in next week�s issue of Billboard.
Just last week Tool�s highly anticipated release, �Lateralus�, landed at number 1, but Staind�s new album pushed Tool into second place this week. �Break the Cycle� sold 716,000 in its first week on record store shelves, breaking the first week sales records of recent releases by Janet Jackson and Destiny�s Child.
The other highflying debut on next week�s chart will be rapper Redman�s latest effort �Malpractice�. Here is a look at the Top 5:
1. Staind
2. Tool
3. Destiny�s Child
4. Redman
5. Missy Elliott
