Foo Fighters’ new “Concrete And Gold” is on track to debut atop the Billboard Top Album Sales and Billboard 200 Charts.

Based on opening day data, Hits Daily Double expects “Concrete And Gold” to sell 120-130,000 pure US copies this week.

With TEA (track sales/10) and SEA (track streams/1500) included, it should generate 125-140,000 total US consumption units.

The former tally should be enough for a convincing #1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales chart. The latter should yield a #1 bow on the Billboard 200.

“Concrete And Gold” is the follow-up to 2014’s “Sonic Highways,” which debuted at #2 on the then-sales-only Billboard 200. It sold 190,000 in its first week.
