Avenged Sevenfold Defeats Eminem

All hail the new Billboard leader: Avenged Sevenfold!
After five weeks at the #1 spot, Eminem’s album Recovery was beaten by rock band Avenged Sevenfold’s new release Nightmare.
It was a close call though, with Eminem coming in less than 4,000 units behind Avenged on Nielsen Soundscan charts.
Will the nightmare continue next week, or will Eminem be able to make another recovery?
Very cool to see a rock band make its way to the top of the charts.
