The last minute promotion to headline Glastonbury has been enough to push Florence & The Machine back to number one on the UK Album Chart this week, narrowly ahead of Wolf Alice‘s debut ‘My Love Is Cool‘.

Just 528 copies separated the two releases in the end, after the official chart update had had Wolf Alice in front and Florence Welch back at #4.




Elsewhere, Everything Everything have landed their second Top 10 album with ‘Get To Heaven‘, and Mumford & Sons‘ ‘Wilder Mind‘ is at #13.
