Haim Outsell Justin Timberlake By 2100 Sales To Top Official UK Albums Chart

US band Haim have gone straight to the top of the charts with their debut album.
The Californian sisters scooped the number one spot with their first full release, Days Are Gone, according to the Official Charts Company. They shot to fame in January when they won the BBC's Sound of 2013 poll.

Despite taking an early lead in the midweek charts, by Friday of this week, there were just 28 sales between Haim and JT, which the 'Falling' stars closed over the weekend, emerging as this week's album chart champions. Haim are No.1, Justin Timberlake No.2, while last week's chart topper, Mechanical Bull by Kings Of Leon, drops to No.3. Arctic Monkeys' AM is at No.4 and Drake's Nothing Was The Same is at No.5.

Alter Bridge enter at No.6 with Fortress and Dizzee Rascal debuts at No.10 with his new album, The Fifth. Sub Focus is new at No.11 with Torus, Moby enters at No.35 with Innocents and Metallica's new movie soundtrack, Through The Never, enters at No.26. Status Quo enter at No.37 with The Frantic Four Reunion and Kids In Glass Houses are at No.40 with Peace.

On the single's chart, One Republic claim their first ever UK No.1 with their current hit, Counting Stars, while new boyband The Vamps enter at No.2. Jason Derulo drops to No.3 with 'Talk Dirty' and Katy Perry's 'Roar' slips to No.4. Chase & Status score a new hit at No.5 with their release, 'Count On Me'.

Elsewhere, Dizzee Rascal debuts at No.10 with new single 'Something Really Bad' and X Factor star Lucy Spraggan entes at No.18 with her 'Last Night (Beer Fear)'. Nelly enters at No.19 with his Nicki Minaj and Pharrell Williams collaboration 'Get Like Me', Fuse ODG is new at No.30 with 'Azonto' and Two Door Cinema Club score their first ever UK Top 40 hit, as 'Changing Of The Seasons' enters at No.33.

Beyonce Headlines First Day At Husband Jay Z's 'Budweiser Made In America' Festival In Philadelphia

Beyonce  'Budweiser Made In America' Festival In Philadelphia

The singer was the headliner with a 90-minute set to close the first day of her husband's second annual music festival on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.

ine Inch Nails closed the second night of the "Budweiser Made In America" ​​festival with a set that captured the audience - although the crowd was not nearly as large as Beyonce's the night before.


Trent Reznor and his band mates performed 19 songs at the Jay-Z-curated festival on Philadelphia's Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Reznor didn't hold back: drenched in sweat and holding the microphone close, he sang his band's rock hits and tracks from the group's new album, "Hesitation Marks," out Tuesday.


He emerged onstage in all black while lights flashed behind him during songs like "Closer" and "Head Like a Hole." NIN went on at 9:30 pm, minutes after DJ-producer Calvin Harris electrified at another stage with his familiar hits "We Found Love," "I Need Your Love" and others. Some concertgoers left after Harris' top-notch performance, and the crowd was not packed when NIN performed, though it filled up throughout the show.



The band's 90-minute set featured hard rock anthems, songs with techno influences as well as groovy and eerie jams. NIN closed the night with a slow and smoky cover of Johnny Cash's "Hurt," which earned nonstop cheers from the crowd. Reznor was soft as he sang the song's verses - making it the set's highlight.


"Yeah, Trent!" one burly voice screamed, and that was one of many.

"Thank you very much," Reznor told the crowd, one of the few times he spoke. "Glad you can be here and we thank Jay-Z for the invite."

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis also performed Sunday, earning cheers from the crowd, as did Miguel and Kendrick Lamar.

The festival Sunday was more packed than on Saturday, when 2 Chainz, Imagine Dragons and Emeli Sande performed.
