Tool Unseats Taylor Swift From No. 1 Spot On Albums Chart

By FYI Staff

Despite competition from Lana Del Rey and Taylor Swift, Tool’s comeback album, Fear Inoculum, debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart with 24,000 total consumption units, driven in part by having the highest album sales total for the week. It is the band’s third chart-topping album and first since 10,000 Days debuted at No. 1 in May 2006.


Taylor Swift’s Lover drops a place in its second week, to 2, but continues to have the highest audio on-demand streams total.

Lana Del Rey’s Norman Fucking Rockwell debuts at 3. All four of her full-length albums have reached the top three. It is her first release since 2017’s Lust For Life debuted at No. 1.

Two other new releases debut in the top 50: Big Wreck’s …but for the sun, landing at 27, and Sheryl Crow’s Threads entering at 31.

Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello’s “Senorita” remains at No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart.
