This is slightly off-topic, but not really worthy of its own post. I was very surprised to see that Megadeth will debut at No. 1 on the upcoming Billboard 200, with first-week consumption of 73,000-- 56,000 of which were physical sales (including 22,000 vinyl sales) and 13,000 of which were digital sales. That's actually better than Dark Matter did in its first week (59,000 total units, of which 52,000 were digital or physical album sales, including 24,000 vinyl).

This is Megadeth's first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200.
