DISTURBED Scores Fifth No. 1 Album In U.S. With 'Immortalized'

August 30, 2015

According to Billboard.com, DISTURBED has landed its fifth No. 1 album on The Billboard 200 chart with its latest studio effort, "Immortalized".

The new disc opens with 98,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending August 27, according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 93,000 were pure album sales.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week based on multi-metric consumption, which includes traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).

DISTURBED is only the third group to score five consecutive No. 1-debuting studio albums. They join METALLICA (five No. 1-debuting studio sets between 1991-2008) and DAVE MATTHEWS BAND (six; 1998-2012).

"Immortalized" is DISTURBED's first studio set since 2010's "Asylum", which opened atop The Billboard 200 with 179,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Nielsen Music. The act previously led the list with "Indestructible" (released in 2008),"Ten Thousand Fists" (2005) and "Believe" (2002).

The only DISTURBED album to miss the top position was the band's debut, "The Sickness", which peaked at No. 29 in 2000.
