Metallica's 'Magnetic' stays at No. 1
By
Senior Editor, JAM! Showbiz



Metallica's latest album continued to rule the Canadian charts this week.

"Death Magnetic" was locked in at No. 1 for a fourth straight week, selling 19,000 copies, according to figures compiled by Nielsen SoundScan.

Close behind was Rapper T.I., who had the best debut of the week at No. 2, with his brand new effort "Paper Trails" (14,000).

Les Cowboys Fringants' "L'Expedition" slipped one spot to No. 3, Canadian comic Russell Peters came in at No. 4 with "Red, White and Brown," and Marie-Chantal Toupin's "Distance" landed at No. 5.

The Pussycat Dolls' "Doll Domination" wasn't so dominant this week, dropping three notches to No. 6, while Coldplay's "Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends" went the other way, rising one position to No. 7.

Rounding out the top 10 was Kid Rock's "Rock 'N Roll Jesus" at No. 8, Dan Bigras's "Duos De La Tendresse" at No. 9, and the "Mamma Mia" soundtrack at No. 10.

Other notable debuts included Trivium's "Shogun" at No. 19, Robin Thicke's "Something Else" at No. 26, James Taylor's "Covers" at No. 30, Amon Amarth's "Twilight of the Thunder God" at No. 35, Faith Hill's "Joy to the World" at No. 41, and Tina Turner's "Tina!" at No. 47.

In the U.S., T.I. hit the top spot, followed by Jennifer Hudson's self-titled album in second, Robin Thicke in third, James Taylor in fourth, and Metallica in fifth.
