Early sales of Van Halen’s ‘A Different Kind Of Truth’ indicate that if the band doesn’t hit number one next week in the USA, the album will debut at no. 2.

Both Adele ‘21’ and Van Halen ‘A Different Kind Of Truth’ are tracking to sell around 200,000 units this past week, according to Hits Daily Double.

That will give Van Halen a decent debut either way and equal the debut of their last album ‘Van Halen III’ back in 1998 which sold 181,000 units in week one and eventually sold 516,000.

It will definitely do better than the highly promoted Paul McCartney ‘Kisses On The Bottom’ album that despite profile raised from a live webcast this week on iTunes, a Walk of Fame induction and a Person of the Year dinner looks like only doing about 65,000 units in week one. McCartney’s last album ‘Memory Almost Full’ from 2007 sold 161,000 in the first week and ended up selling 635,000 in America.
