Deftones Debut A Decades-Old Album As A Top 40 Bestseller
That is certainly the case in the United Kingdom, where one of the group's earliest full-lengths is in the midst of a very meaningful frame.
Around the Fur Debuts Inside the Top 40
The second Deftones project, Around the Fur, appears on multiple charts this week. The set even manages to debut on the Official Vinyl Albums chart, opening at No. 34.
Deftones collect a sixth placement on the U.K.'s ranking of the top-selling titles available on vinyl. While Around the Fur is now the lowest-peaking set by the group on that tally, it finally becomes a top performer on vinyl decades after its initial release.
Around the Fur Hits New All-Time Peaks
At the same time that Around the Fur reaches the vinyl tally, Deftones also push the project to new high points on two other rankings. This frame, Around the Fur surges to No. 28 on the Official Physical Albums chart and No. 31 on the Official Album Sales roster — both of which mark newly-established peaks for the title, dozens of weeks into its time on the two tallies.
Deftones Claim a Pair of Rock Bestsellers
Around the Fur can also be found on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart. 204 weeks into its time on the genre-specific roster, the Deftones classic jumps from No. 9 to No. 5, nearing its all-time high of No. 2.
The group fills a pair of spaces on that ranking, as Around the Fur surges and White Pony reenters at No. 31.
Around the Fur Dropped Back in 1997
Deftones released Around the Fur in the fall of 1997. The full-length brought the band to the main albums charts in both the United States and the U.K. for the first time. The title produced a pair of wins on the main singles list across the Atlantic, as 'My Own Summer (Shove It)' and 'Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)' climbed as high as Nos. 29 and 50, while the latter was also a rock radio success story in America.

‘Superman' and ‘Star Wars' Actor Terence Stamp Dies at Age 87
English actor Terence Stamp, seen across a variety of film and TV over the decades, has passed away at 87 years old. In a statement to Reuters, the actor's family revealed he passed on Sunday morning. Born July 22, 1938, he made his film debut with the 1962 adaptation of Herman Melville's Billy Budd as the title character. The role earned him an Academy Award nomination and recognition that allowed him to star in films like 1965's The Collector 1967's Poor Cow. Genre-wise, Terence Stamp famously played General Zod in the first two Superman movies, and Chancellor Valorum in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Other notable roles include Stick in 2005's Elektra, Bud Chantilas in Red Planet, and Ramsley in Disney's 2003 Haunted Mansion. Stamp would later return to DC for Smallville (as Jor-El) and Static Shock (Professor Menace), and voiced the Prophet of Truth in Halo 3 and Mankar Camoran in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. He was also a potential James Bond candidate after Sean Connery retired from the role, which ended up not working out. He also appeared in Tim Burton's Big Eyes and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. More recently, Stamp could be seen in Netflix's Murder Mystery, HBO's His Dark Materials series and Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho. Archival audio of his performance as Mankar was also used for the recent Oblivion remaster. In its statement, Stamp's family noted his 'extraordinary body of work, both as an actor and as a writer that will continue to touch and inspire people for years to come.' Want more io9 news?

British actor Terence Stamp, Superman star and famed figure of swinging London, dies at 87
UK Movies Obituaries MediaFacebookTweetLink Follow Terence Stamp, the British actor who became synonymous with Swinging London in the 1960s, has died, his family said Sunday, according to Reuters. He was 87 years old. Stamp first came to prominence when he took on the titular role in the 1962 film 'Billy Budd.' The black and white drama, directed by Peter Ustinov, who also starred, saw Stamp nominated for an Academy Award for best supporting actor - the only Oscar nomination of his lengthy career. He went on to star in a host of films in the 1960s, among them John Schlesinger's Thomas Hardy adaptation 'Far From the Madding Crowd' and Ken Loach's first feature film, 'Poor Cow.' CNN has reached out to his representatives for confirmation of his death. He was a star who rose from humble beginnings in London's East End, about as far from Hollywood as you can get. He was born on July 22, 1938, to parents Ethel and Thomas, a merchant seaman. In a 2013 interview with the British Film Institute (BFI), Stamp revealed that his father tried to deter him from a career in showbiz. 'He genuinely believed that people like us didn't do things like that,' he said. But his mother, he said, 'loved every second of it.' 'In retrospect, my mother must have always wanted me to do it and must have wished that she could have been more supportive. But my dad was the head of the family and I never really knew what he thought of it because he was of that generation. 'He was a merchant seaman, he shovelled coal, and in that confined living quarters any show of emotion would have been considered unbearably flash.' Stamp would become one of the biggest figures of 1960s London, romantically linked to model Jean Shrimpton and actresses Julie Christie - his 'Far From the Madding Crowd' co-star - and Brigitte Bardot. His only marriage came in 2002 - to an Australian pharmacist 35 years his junior - but that lasted just six years, according to the Guardian. Stamp famously roomed with fellow actor Michael Caine, who was also a rising star at the time. The pair lost touch, however, as he disclosed in an interview with The Guardian newspaper in 2015. 'We just went different ways. I can understand it: in many ways he was much more mature than me,' he said of Caine, who was five years older. 'Caine gave me all my early values, like making sure you were doing good stuff, waiting for the right things – then as soon as he got away he did exactly the opposite. Went from one movie to another.' After a few years away from the screen, Stamp appeared in the 1978 blockbuster 'Superman' as the superhero's adversary, General Zod. He reprised the role of the comic book villain in the sequel two years later. Ironically, more than two decades later Stamp went on to voice the role of Superman's father Jor-El in the TV series 'Smallville.' His many screen credits also included his role as drag queen Bernadette in the 1990s Australian comedy 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.' Of his eclectic career - including roles in Hollywood's 'Wall Street' and 'The Adjustment Bureau' - he told the Guardian that he had no ambitions, adding: 'I've had bad experiences and things that didn't work out; my love for film sometimes diminishes but then it just resurrects itself. 'I never have to gee myself up, or demand a huge wage to get out of bed in the morning. I've done crap, because sometimes I didn't have the rent. But when I've got the rent, I want to do the best I can.'
