Stereophonics have pipped Bring Me The Horizon to top this week’s UK Album Chart with ‘Keep The Village Alive‘.
There was a three-way battle for the latest number one, and Stereophonics have finished just over 1,000 copies ahead of Bring Me The Horizon‘s ‘That’s The Spirit‘, while The Libertines have to settle for #3 with their comeback LP ‘Anthems For Doomed Youth‘.
Elsewhere, Richard Hawley‘s superb new record ‘Hollow Meadows‘ debuts inside the Top 10, as do Duran Duran and ‘Paper Gods‘.
