True. Tis strange. I guess bands like U2 must be guaranteed to shift a couple of million of a new album just on the global fanbase alone, but, yeah, even their album dropped out the top ten after a couple of weeks.
But the drop off in sales with the likes of Kaiser Chiefs and Franz Ferdinand can't be anything to do with the music per se - they hardly went for a sonic overhaul did they? Guess the ADHD accelerated culture thing is spreading like a virus. New! Next! Now!
Yet, that last Kings Of Leon album has been in the UK top ten for ages. Who is still buying it?!
Times are indeed a changin, even in the big leagues.
