There’s three British bands currently battling it out for the number one spot on the UK Album Chart this week, as The Libertines, Stereophonics, and the heavier rock slant of Bring Me The Horizon all debut inside the Top 3 on the official midweek update.
It’s Bring Me The Horizon who are out in front at the moment with ‘That’s The Spirit‘, while Stereophonics’ ‘Keep The Village Alive‘ is at #2 and The Libertines are one further place back with ‘Anthems For Doomed Youth‘.
Thanks to the changes made earlier this year, it’ll all be confirmed one way or another on Friday afternoon (September 18th).
