It'll keep happening.

Cage The Elephant scored #2. It's kind of a bittersweet victory for these guys, cause even though #1 and #2 is impressive, their sales are still eh, which is far more important.

I loved this CD. Reminded me why I like cake. Still purchased a physical copy

Dang. Too bad the last Anberlin record didn't come out this week. Could have been number 2.

Surprised they hit #1 at all.

I've noticed that Wal-Mart and other huge retailers have been downsizing their CD sections.

Damn. Not to rag on Cake, but I thought Cage the Elephant was gonna have number one and actually sell a bit more.

what else is new? and yea pretty sad that's what was number one...better than mainstream pop i guess.
