The third album from JOJI, Smithereens (88rising/Warner), is the only other new arrival to open in the Top 10 on both charts: It’s #4 in sales and #9 in streams.
Back at iTunes, Teddy Swims’ six-song EP Sleep Is Exhausting (SWIMS/Warner) is #3; Dark Sun (Spinefarm) from Orange County hardcore act Dayseeker is #5; and Alicia Keys’ first Christmas album, Santa Baby (Alicia Keys Records), is #6. The fifth album from the Swedish duo First Aid Kit, Palomino (Columbia), kicks up at #7; Lecrae’s Church Clothes 4 (Reach) is dressed for #8; Phoenix’s seventh album, Alpha Zulu (LOYAUTE/Glassnote), rises to #9; and a Barbra Streisand nightclub recording from 60 years ago, Live at the Bon Soir (Columbia), debuts at #10.
