Coldplay has earned their fourth No. 1 and the year's biggest sales week with their latest album, Ghost Stories.

According to Nielsen SoundScan, the set sold 383,000 copies this past week, easily surpassing Eric Church's The Outsiders, which sold 288,000 in February for the year's previous high.

Coldplay's previous three albums, 2011's Mylo Xyloto, 2008's Viva La Vida Or Death and All His Friends and 2005's X&Y, have all debuted at No. 1.
