    Linkin Park's "Minutes to Midnight" crashes in at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 in a big way this week, its 623,000 copies the highest first-week total of 2007, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It's the biggest debut week number since Jay-Z's "Kingdome Come" moved 680,000 last December; only five other titles have moved more than 600,000 in a week in the past two years. Linkin Park's last album, 2003's "Meteora," began at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 with 810,000.

    Australias sale figures were good, its already platinum apparently.

    You can't expect it to sell 600 thousand copies here in a week, our population is nothing compared to America's.

    ah yeah that's true, but in my area people aren't that into them, and they keep calling LP nu metal still despite the countless times i remind them how LP don't want to be called that.

    Im not sure how people around me actually feel about LP, most of the just bag the crap out of the band as a joke 'cos I like them so much.
    oh and the shredder wanna-bes like dissing Brad Delson. Still, overall they must be pretty popular in Sydney.
