Slipknot top US album chart after recount

Slipknot have taken the number one slot on the US Billboard album chart after a recount showed they outsold The Game's 'LAX' by just over a thousand copies.

Slipknot have claimed the number one slot in the US Billboard album chart after a recount showed that they had actually sold more than The Game. Initially, The Game had been hailed this week's biggest selling, after the first count showed that his 'LAX' album had sold 238,285 copies - 13 more than Slipknot's 'All Hope Is Gone'. But it turned out that there was hope for Slipknot (you like what I did there?) because, as it happened, they had actually sold over a thousand copies more than The Game.

Positions switched, peace was returned to Music Town.
