Comments
The top 5 albums this week are all the same titles as last. They have just shuffled around a bit. Just outside the top 10, Rihanna is riding the success of her single "Shut Up and Drive" to put her album 'Good Girl Gone Bad' back at #6. Welsh rockers are back with their first album in 2 years, and they just miss the top 10.
