“Backspacer,” the latest album from veteran grunge rock group Pearl Jam, is on pace to lead the album sales charts next week.<\/p>\n

According to tracking released by Billboard, “Backspacer” will land in the 200,000 range and be America’s top-selling album.<\/p>\n

And though it might face strong holdover competition from acts like Jay-Z, it will greatly outpace any albums debuting on the charts this week.<\/p>\n

Other notable new album releases include Three Days Grace’s “Life Starts Now” (80-85,000 sales projected), Brand New’s “Daisy” (45-50,000), Five Finger Death Punch’s “War is the Answer” (35-40,000), David Gray’s “Draw the Line” (30-35,000), Harry Connick, Jr.’s “Your Songs” (30-35,000), Mika’s “The Boy Who Knew Too Much” (25-30,000), Monsters of Folk’s “Monsters of Folk” (25-30,000) and Sean Kingston’s “Tomorrow” (15-18,000).<\/p>\n
