The band's newest album topped the charts at No. 1 this week, but sold less than half as much as previous album.

The Jonas Brothers' newest album, "Lines, Vines and Trying Times," released on June 16, is this week's number one album.

Though the band is back on top, their sales have not been as successful as their last album, "A Little Bit Longer" sold 525,000 copies in its first week, compared to 247,000 copies sold this past week, according to Reuters.

Though the band's sales have been shrinking, the Jonas Brothers are growing up.

The brothers were clad in leather for the cover for Rolling Stone's latest issue.

E! Online wrote: "The Jonas Brothers are men now. That's why they're posing like a late-'90s boy band on Rolling Stone—that's just what men do."

The article "Boys to Men: Inside the World of the Jonas Brothers" along with video of the cover shoot and photos of the brothers preparing for their summer tour, can be viewed at Rolling Stone.
