The album was bolstered with three new studio recordings (“Up From the Bottom,” “Unshatter” and “Let You Fade”) on its digital and streaming editions, while physical formats (two double-CD sets and two double-vinyls) also added in five live tracks. The same week From Zero’s deluxe impacted the album charts, one of the new songs added to the project, “Up From the Bottom,” hit No. 1 on both the Alternative Airplay and Mainstream Rock Airplay charts.
In the tracking week ending May 22, From Zero earned 14,000 equivalent album units (up 173%), with traditional album sales comprising 7,500 of that sum (up 531%). The latter figure pushes the album’s reentry on Top Album Sales at No. 5.

BOYNEXTDOOR’s 4th EP: No Genre starts at a career-high No. 3 with nearly 14,000 sold; it’s the fourth top 10 for the act.
Sleep Token’s Even in Arcadia falls 1-4 in its second week on the chart (nearly 8,000; down 90%), while the aforementioned From Zero reenters the list at No. 5.
Kali Uchis’ Sincerely. retreats 2-6 in its second week (just over 7,000; down 81%), Kendrick Lamar’s chart-topping GNX climbs 8-7 (7,000; up 6%) and P1Harmony’s DUH! dips 3-6 in its second week (nearly 7,000; down 69%).
Rounding out the latest top 10 is Sleep Theory’s first full-length set Afterglow, which scores the band its first top 10 (and chart entry) with its No. 9 debut (6,500) and MEOVV, who sees their debut EP My Eyes Open VVIDE start at No. 10 (6,000).
Pink Floyd’s archival live album Pink Floyd at Pompeii: MCMLXXII debuts in the top 10 across multiple Billboard charts (dated May 17), following its release on May 2, including a No. 3 arrival on Top Album Sales with the band’s biggest sales week in over a decade.
