NEW RELEASES:
TOOL TIME

Tool will have the splashiest debut of the week, as their first album since 2006 comes out as a pricey and elaborate retail package. Meanwhile, Lana and Lil Tecca roll out.

Tool (Volcano/RCA) 240-260k total activity, 220-240k album
Lana Del Rey (Interscope) 75-85k, 50-60k
Lil Tecca (Galactic/Republic) 41-46k, 1k

Could Tool take the #1 spot on our next chart, surpassing the mighty Taylor Swift in her second week? Signs point to, um, maybe. Stay tuned.
