Coldplay Scores Second Week Atop Album Chart

The top three slots on The Billboard 200 remain static this week, as
Coldplay's "Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends" starts a second
week at No. 1. The Capitol effort moved 249,000 U.S. copies, according
to Nielsen Soundscan, a 66% drop from its 721,000 start.

Lil Wayne's Cash Money/Universal set "Tha Carter III" sticks to No. 2
with 209,000 (-32%) as the Jonas Brothers-led soundtrack to Disney's
"Camp Rock" stays at No. 3 with 169,000 (-10%).

Motley Crue's "Saints of Los Angeles" (Masters 2008/Motley) debuts at
No. 4 with 99,000 copies. The band's best album chart feat came with
1989's "Dr. Feelgood," which reached No. 1.

After experiencing a number of release date shifts, Three 6 Mafia's
Hypnotize Minds/Columbia album "Last 2 Walk" finally strides onto the
chart at No. 5 with 77,000. The Academy Award-winning rap duo's last
album, "Most Known Unknown," peaked at No. 3.

The multi-label "Now 28" compilation slides 4-6 with 66,000 (-19%),
while Usher's LaFace/Zomba set "Here I Stand" descends 6-7 with a 21%
sales decrease to 52,000.

Rock act Shinedown's third effort for Atlantic, "The Sound of Madness,
" starts at No. 8 with 50,000, the band's best charting album yet. The
group's 2004 debut "Leave a Whisper" topped the Heatseekers tally that
year and peaked at No. 53 on the big chart, while 2005's "Us and Them"
had a No. 23 start.

Disturbed's Warner Bros. album "Indestructible" declines 8-9 with 50,000
(-16%) while Rihanna's "Good Girl Gone Bad" (SRP/Def Jam) slips 7-10
with 47,000, a 26% sales hit.

Sigur Ros enjoys its best showing on The Billboard 200 this week with
"Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Splium Endalaust" (XL), which bows at No. 15 with
32,000. "Takk" was their previous best, peaking at No. 27 in 2005.

Other debuts this week include Cute I What We Aim For's "Rotation" at
No. 21 (Fueled by Ramen, 23,000), Amos Lee's Blue Note set "Last Days
at the Lodge" at No. 29 (16,000) and Dwele's "...Sketches of a Man" at
No. 35 (Koch, 14,000).

Album sales are down 7.66% from last week's sum at 7.6 million units,
and are down 13.2% compared to the same week last year.
