Gary Allan Puts His ‘Pain’ on the Charts

Gary Allan's first album in two-and-a-half years roars on to the Billboard Country Albums chart this week at No. 2, selling 65,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan data. 'Get Off on the Pain' also bows on the Billboard 200 at No. 5 for the week.

Lady Antebellum still hold on to the top spot on the country chart with 'Need You Now,' but on the multi-genre Billboard 200, they drop from the top spot to No. 3, displaced (at No. 1 and 2, respectively) by Ludacris and Gorillaz -- which kind of sounds like the name of a scary law firm.

Lady A's 'Need You Now' remains country music's hottest digitally downloaded track and album for the week.

Elsewhere on the country album chart:

-The 'Crazy Heart' soundtrack bumps up to No. 6 from No. 10, no doubt thanks to the post-Oscar buzz and the award-winning tune, 'The Weary Kind' by Ryan Bingham.

-Actor/singer Christian Kane debuts at No. 28 with his self-titled disc.
