Foals are at the top of the UK Record Store Chart this week with their new album ‘Holy Fire‘.
The band missed out on the number one position on the main chart thanks to the Les Miserables soundtrack, but have proved to be the most popular of the past week in the UK’s independent record shops, with Richard Thompson‘s ‘Electric‘ another high new entry at #2.
Elsewhere, Jake Bugg‘s self-titled debut is holding strong at no.5, while Mumford & Sons‘ second record ‘Babel‘ has jumped back into the Top 10 after its triumph at the 2013 Grammy Awards.
