Radiohead enters US Charts at #3

Radiohead’s latest effort for Capitol, “Hail to the Thief,” enters at No. 3 with sales of 300,000 copies. This bests the first-week sales totals of 2000’s “Kid A” and 2001’s “Amnesiac,” despite the fact that “Hail to the Thief” was illegally available online 10 weeks prior to hitting stores. “Kid A” entered at No. 1 with 207,000 copies, and “Amnesiac” arrived at No. 2 with 231,000 copies.
