Taylor Swift Back at #1

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift once again has topped the charts:

Taylor Swift’s Fearless (Taylor’s Version) returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart for a second nonconsecutive week atop the list. The album surges from No. 157 to No. 1 with 152,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 7 (up 1,931%), according to MRC Data. The set vaults back to No. 1 after the Oct. 1 release of a signed CD available only in Swift’s webstore and its vinyl LP. Fearless (Taylor’s Version) debuted at No. 1 nearly six months ago, on the April 24-dated Billboard 200 chart.

Review: We Are Scientists – Huffy

After recently celebrating the anniversary of their debut album, With Love & Squalor, with a comprehensive and successful tour of the states before the pandemic hit, We Are Scientists have returned with their seventh studio album. Huffy sounds like a band refreshed, re-focused, and re-energized for the future that lays in front of them. Filled with lush pop hooks and brilliant harmonies, We Are Scientists are doing their best to use this momentum to continue to stick around in the limelight. If this band can capitalize on this great-sounding record, it may be time for more of us to put our trust back into scientists.
