Public Service Broadcasting set their sights on Berlin for their fourth studio record.

Public Service Broadcasting have debuted at number one on the UK Record Store Chart with Bright Magic.

The Lathums – who have topped the UK’s main chart with How Beautiful Life Can Be – are the next in line on a Top 20 dominated by new entries, more coming from the likes of Pixies, Natalie Imbruglia, Do Nothing and The Joy Formidable.
