Royal Blood's Dead Company Debuts at Number 2, Ending the Duo's
Run of Four Straight UK Number 1 Albums
The Official Charts Company announced on November 13 that rock duo
Royal Blood's fifth studio album, Dead Company, debuted at Number 2 on
the UK Official Albums Chart.
The result ends the band's unbroken run of four consecutive
chart-topping studio albums. Official Charts described this week's
race for the top spot as fiercely contested.
The Number 1 position went to James Blunt's Airplane Mode, his first
UK albums chart-topper in 19 years.
Royal Blood consists of singer and bassist Mike Kerr and drummer Ben
Thatcher, and comes from Brighton, England.
Elsewhere on the chart, Skepta's The Fork and Knife, his first solo
album in seven years, placed fourth, and Kings of Leon's O My Beloved,
their first entirely self-produced studio record, placed fifth.
Progressive rock artist Steven Wilson placed sixth with Requiem For A
Village, his fifth solo album to reach the UK Top 10.
