Destined to Win opens at number 20, smashing her previous best of 82 for 2002’s 2nd Chance.
Sublime with Rome, the collaboration between the band Sublime and guitarist Rome Ramirez, premiers at 34 with Sirens, their second album with Rome and fifth studio album overall. The position is a drop from their last set, 2011’s Your’s Truly, which started at 9.
At 45 is the 70’s-based soundtrack to Guardians of the Galaxy, marking a full year that the album has been in our weekly top ten albums by veteran artists in the U.S. Plus, it could be there longer as the album rises this week from 72.
