Jonas Bros. crush Peas on charts
By
Senior Editor, JAM! Showbiz



The Jonas Brothers are No.1 in the land.

Tween sensations the Jonas Brothers snagged their second straight No. 1 album in Canada.

The trio's fourth studio effort, "Lines, Vines & Trying Times," surged to the top of the charts this week, selling 25,000 copies in its debut, according to Nielsen SoundScan data.

Their previous album, last year's "Little Bit Longer," racked up 35,000 in its first week of release.

They also grabbed the No. 1 spot south of the border, selling 247,000 copies of "Lines, Vines & Trying Times" in the U.S.

Back here, last week's No. 1, the Black Eyed Peas "The E.N.D." moved into the runner-up slot, while the Lost Fingers' Rendez-Vous Rose" and the "NOW! 14" collection both premiered at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.

Three heavyweights lost some momentum, with Eminem's "Relapse" slipping from No. 2 to No. 5, Green Day's "21st Century Breakdown" falling from No. 4 to No. 6, and Dave Matthews sinking from No. 3 to No. 7.

The rest of the top 10 was rounded out by the "Hannah Montana" soundtrack at No. 8, Kings of Leon's "Only by the Night" at No. 9, and Lady Gaga's "The Fame" at No. 10.

In the U.S., the Black Eyed Peas came in second, followed by DMB in third, Eminem in fourth, and Incubus' greatest hits set "Monuments and Melodies" in fifth.
