It is the album’s seventh week at the top of the chart, the most for any album so far in 2019.

The top debut of the week belongs to Montreal’s Half Moon Run, whose latest album, A Blemish In The Great Light, lands at 3, with the highest album sales total of the week. It is their highest-charting album to date, surpassing the No. 4 peak of their last release, 2015’s Sun Leads Me On.
