Linkin Park’s new “One More Light” debuted on the US iTunes store late Thursday night.
It quickly shot to #1 on the all-genre album sales chart.
There it sits as of press time at 1:20AM ET.
Receiving a surge of purchasing interest in the wake of Chris Cornell’s passing, the 20th anniversary edition of Soundgarden’s “Superunknown” is currently #2 on the chart. Audioslave’s self-titled album, another Cornell project, is #3. Chris Stapleton’s “From A Room, Volume 1” (#4) and the “Guardians Of The Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 2” (#5) complete the Top 5.
The 25th anniversary edition of Soundgarden’s “Badmotorfinger” (#6), Harry Styles’ “Harry Styles” (#7), the new deluxe edition of blink-182’s “California” (#8), Zac Brown Band’s “Welcome Home” (#9), and Chris Cornell’s “Soundbook (Live)” (#10) also hold Top 10 positions.
