Singer-songwriter Sia nabs her first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200  and her best sales week ever  as "1000 Forms of Fear" debuts atop the list. The new album, released on Monkey Puzzle through RCA Records, sold 52,000 copies in the week ending July 13, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

 

...

 

One last note on "1000 Forms of Fear": It logs the lowest sales figure for a No. 1 album in nearly two years. It's the smallest since the Aug. 11, 2012 chart, when Zac Brown Band's "Uncaged" led the list with 48,000.

This was already speculated, but now confirmed. Devastating numbers but she definitely deserves the title if nothing else.

music industry is making nothing nowadays on music, it's all on tours which most artists can't even do.

Well, a lot of people don't know who she is so this is actually good. And Chandeliers is just now picking up steam.

I guess the music industry will have to rely on marketing Disney soundtracks to children from now on lol
