Lorde's ‘Virgin’ Debuts, Nickelback's 2005 Album 'All The Right Reasons' Re-Enters on the Billboard Canadian Albums Chart

Despite their controversial slot on the patriotic American Rock The Country tour, Nickelback has two catalogue albums re-entering their home country's chart.

Charli XCX was right — it is a Lorde summer.

The New Zealand pop artist’s fourth record, Virgin, debuts at No. 2 and No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, dated July 12. It marks the singer’s fourth album to chart in the Top 10, following Solar Power’s peak at No. 6 in September 2021.
