The Black Keys have earned their fourth straight top-five album with their latest album, "Let's Rock" .

The ninth studio effort from the Akron, Ohio duo debuts at number four on the Billboard 200 with a total of 52,000 equivalent album units, 41,000 of which were traditional album sales.

Prior to "Let's Rock" , The Black Keys topped the Billboard 200 with 2014's Turn Blue , while 2011's El Camino debuted at number two and 2010's Brothers bowed at number three.

While "Let's Rock" lands at number four on the Billboard 200, which combines sales and streaming data, it's number one on Billboard 's Top Album Sales chart, meaning it was the best selling record of the week.

The Black Keys will launch a U.S. headlining tour in support of "Let's Rock" in September.
