\t\t\t\t\tTwo Albums Surpass 300,000 Weekly Units for First Time in Eight Years, Thanks to Taylor Swift\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\tThe set is also Eilish\u2019s fourth leader on Top Alternative Albums<\/a>, following Happier Than Ever<\/em> (2021), When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?<\/em> (2019) and Dont Smile at Me<\/em> (2019, after it first appeared on the list in 2017).<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the week ending May 23, Hit Me Hard and Soft<\/em>, released May 17, earned 339,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. \u2013 Eilish\u2019s best career week by that metric \u2013 according to Luminate. The sum includes 191,000 album sales and 146,000 streaming-equivalent units.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 10-song collection is the first release to reach six digits in units on Top Rock & Alternative Albums since Dolly Parton<\/a>\u2019s Rockstar<\/em> (128,000; Dec. 2, 2023) and the first on Top Alternative Albums since blink-182<\/a>\u2019s One More Time\u2026 <\/em>(125,000; Nov. 4, 2023).<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 339,000-unit total is the highest for a title on Top Rock & Alternative Albums in a decade, since the 383,000 units amassed by Coldplay<\/a>\u2019s Ghost Stories<\/em> (June 7, 2014; it\u2019s the top count since Top Rock & Alternative Albums shifted to a consumption-based methodology in 2016).<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Top Alternative Albums, Hit Me Hard and Soft<\/em> has the biggest week since the all-time leader: Taylor Swift<\/a>\u2019s Folklore<\/em> (846,000; Aug. 8, 2020), with Eilish\u2019s new LP the second-biggest in a single week since the 2016 shift to a consumption-based formula.<\/p>\n

\n\tConcurrently, Hit Me Hard and Soft<\/em> debuts at No. 2 on the all-genre Billboard 200<\/a> and crowns the Vinyl Albums<\/a> chart, with 90,000 vinyl copies sold, as previously reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLunch,\u201d the album\u2019s lead single, bows at No. 1 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Hot Alternative Songs<\/a> surveys. \u201cLunch\u201d is Eilish\u2019s fourth No. 1 on the former, which became inclusive of alternative-leaning songs not categorized within the rock genre in 2020, following commands for \u201cWhat Was I Made For?\u201d in 2023, \u201cHappier Than Ever\u201d in 2021 and \u201cMy Future\u201d in 2020. Of those, \u201cHappier Than Ever\u201d also debuted at No. 1.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Hot Alternative Songs, which began in 2020, \u201cLunch\u201d is also Eilish\u2019s fourth leader, likewise following \u201cWhat Was I Made For?,\u201d \u201cHappier Than Ever\u201d and \u201cMy Future.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLunch\u201d starts with 32.8 million official U.S. streams, 20.2 million radio audience impressions and 3,000 downloads sold May 17-23.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe entirety of Hit Me Hard and Soft<\/em>\u2019s 10-song tracklist reaches Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, with eight titles debuting in the top 10 and all 10 in the top 12. Only Zach Bryan<\/a>, with nine of the top 10 on the Sept. 9, 2023, tally, has claimed more in the top 10 in a single frame.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe LP\u2019s top-charting song after \u201cLunch\u201d is \u201cChihiro,\u201d which bows at No. 3 with 27.2 million streams and 1,000 sold.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLunch\u201d concurrently debuts at No. 17 on Pop Airplay<\/a>, No. 21 on Alternative Airplay and No. 24 on Adult Pop Airplay<\/a>, as well as No. 26 on the all-format Radio Songs<\/a> list.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe track also arrives at No. 1 on Alternative Streaming Songs<\/a>, marking Eilish\u2019s eighth leader since the ranking began in 2020. On the all-genre Streaming Songs<\/a> chart, it starts at No. 5.<\/p>\n
