Paramore’s new “After Laughter” is on track for a Top 5 debut on Billboard Top Album Sales and a Top 10 start on the Billboard 200.
According to Hits Daily Double, the new album is expected to sell 50-55,000 pure US copies this week. They tally should be enough for #4 or #5 on the Top Album Sales chart.
With TEA (track sales/10) and SEA (track streams/1500) included, “After Laughter” should post a first-week consumption total of 55-60,000 units.
Such a figure would likely position the album between #6 and #9 on the Billboard 200.
“After Laughter,” Paramore’s first album in over four years, is the follow-up to 2013’s “Paramore.” That album debuted at #1 on the (then-sales only) Billboard 200 with 106K US sales.
